33
Q

Ca functions

A

Bone development/maintenance, blood clotting, nerve impulse, muscle contraction, cell metabolism

34
Q

P functions

A

Mineralization of bones/teeth, component of essential body compounds (ATP, DNA, phospholipids, hydroxyapatite), some vitamin components (TPP, PLP, NADP)

35
Q

Mg functions

A

Bone structure, cofactor for kinases (enzymes that make ATP), nerve impulses, muscle contraction

36
Q

S functions

A

Protein structure (ex. collagen, keratin). Maintains acid-base balance, detoxifying agent

37
Q

Na functions

A

Nutrient absorption/transport, fluid balance, pH balance, muscle contraction, nerve transmission

38
Q

K functions

A

Fluid/electrolyte balance, nerve-impulse transmission, muscle contraction, acid-base balance, supports cell integrity

39
Q

Cl functions

A

Major electrolyte, formation of gastric acid, immune response, nerve function

40
Q

Fe functions

A

Component of proteins in body (hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochromes). Enzyme cofactor for peroxidase in WBCs, collagen synthesis, neurotransmitters

41
Q

Zn functions

A

Metalloenzyme component, protein structure, DNA replication, growth/development, reproduction, immune function, appetite/taste perception

42
Q

Mn functions

A

Enzyme cofactor: binds to ATP, metabolism of macronutrients, pyruvate to oxaloacetate. Assists in bone formation

43
Q

Cu functions

A

Metalloprotein component and enzyme cofactor. Ceruloplasmin transports Cu in blood (oxidizes Fe, key factor in Hg synthesis). Protein synthesis (collagen), formation of neurotransmitters, synthesis of hair pigment (melanin)

44
Q

I functions

A

Integral part of thyroid hormones (regulate metabolic rate, growth/development, blood cell production, nerve/muscle function, body temp)

45
Q

Se functions

A

Cofactor for glutathione peroxidase (GPX)- prevents free radical formation, works with vitamin E as antioxidant

46
Q

Cr functions

A

Enhances insulin effectiveness. Participates in lipid metabolism

47
Q

F functions

A

Prevents demineralization of calcified tissues, synthesis of fluorapatite crystals (bone/tooth crystal), protects against tooth decay, increases bone mass
