Question 2 (1 point) Which one of the following is correct? Recommendations that processed foods in the diet should be reduced were first made in the 1990s. Electric cars contradict the theory that energy can be changed from one form to another. Brillat-Savarin claimed that in the 18th century the poor had a healthier diet than the rich. Victor Lindlahr discovered that Fleischmann's yeast contains all the essential amino acids. All body activities except for thinking require glucose. None of these responses is correct.

Step 1
Statement 1: "Recommendations that processed foods in the diet should be reduced were first made in the 1990s." This statement is likely incorrect. Recommendations to reduce processed foods were made before the 1990s. Statement 2: "Electric cars contradict the Show more…

The food groups teach us that most nutrients can be found in more than one group; therefore, we really don't need to worry if we regularly consume only one or two of the food groups. The website discussing sugar substitutes says, "Zero calories means zero energy." This is: a. False. Vitamins can also give us energy even though they do not contain any calories. b. True. If there are no calories in a product then it contains none of the macronutrients that provide energy. Mabel has just downloaded an app to her phone that allows her to enter the names of each food that she eats into a database to assess her intake on a daily basis. Her sister April is not impressed. "I've been using the information on the food label for years to assess the quality my diet. I don't need an app for that." April's use of the food label information: a. Is consistent with what the FDA intended when it created the nutrition facts panel - to allow an individual to determine the adequacy of his/her own intake.

8. When malate or fumarate are added to a pigeon breast muscle homogenate, they stimulate the rate of oxygen utilization in a non-stoichiometric fashion, i.e., the amount of oxygen consumed is about 7 times that required for the complete oxidation (to CO2 and H2O) of the added compounds. Explain these observations. (Hint: Oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor from electron carriers produced in the TCA) 9. The consumption of alcohol (particularly after strenuous exercise or after not eating well) results in hypoglycemia – low blood glucose levels. The first step in the metabolism of ethanol by the liver is its oxidation to acetaldehyde by alcohol dehydrogenase. Ethanol + NAD+ = acetaldehyde + NADH + H+ Explain how the consequences of this reaction may lead to hypoglycemia. 10. In many tissues, one of the earliest responses to cellular injury is a rapid increase in the levels of the enzymes involved in the pentose phosphate pathway. Ten days after an injury, heart tissue has levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase that are 20 to 30 times higher than normal, whereas the levels of glycolytic enzymes are only 10 to 20% of normal. Suggest an explanation. 11. A common way to determine the effectiveness of compounds as precursors of glucose is to starve an animal to deplete liver glycogen stores and then administer the test compound and see if it leads to a net increase in glycogen levels. A compound that does is called glucogenic. Show by means of known enzymatic pathways which of the following are glucogenic: - Succinate - Glycerol - Palmitate - Butyrate
