Which of these does not happen during prolonged starvation? a, glucose provided by protein degradation and gluconeogenesis in the liver.
00:09
B, the brain uses ketone bodies generated in the liver.
00:13
C, glucose is provided by glycogen degradation in skeletal muscle.
00:17
Or d, some glucose is provided by glycerol metabolism and gluconeogenesis in the liver.
00:23
So all of these are possible ways of getting glucose.
00:26
The point here is during prolonged starvation.
00:28
So the answer is c.
00:31
The answer is c because glycogen from the skeletal muscle and also glycine from the liver is the first to go.
00:37
So c, because the glycogen stores are first to be used, they are gone within a day.
00:47
It's not unusual to use up your glycogen stores in day -to -day life without starvation...
