Q

How does dietary fiber lower serum cholesterol?

A

-delays gastric emptying -> flattened glucose curve -> lower insulin secretion -> stimulation of HMG-CoA reductase-> lower serem cholestrol

-interferes with digestive enzymes ->lowers cholesterol absoption->lowers exogenous cholestrol availible

increases use of blood cholesrtrol for bile synthesis in liver

inhibits cholestrol synthesis

Q

what are the 4 ways glycogen is synthesized?

A

Glucose + Hexokinase (ATP → ADP + Pi) → Gluc - 6P

(confidence boost) youve made it past L1, good job

A

ur still retarded

43
Q

What does the large intestine do

A

Stores:
Feces, bacteria to ferment food, H2O reapbsorption, bacteria that make VIT K and Biotin

44
Q

What enzymes are involved in the digestion of carbs

A

Salivary amylase: starch → disaccharides
Pancreatic amylase: dextrins (polysaccharide chains) → glucose in branched chains in SI
Maltase, Sucrase, Lactase: Brush border → monosaccharide absorption in SI → caps → hepatic port and liver

45
Q

What enzymes are responsible for lipid digestion

A

Lingual lipase
Gastric lipase → digest fats
Gastric Inhibitory Peptide (GIP) & Secretin → slows gastric motility
Pancreatic lipase → breakdown TAG
Lipoprotein lipase in cap walls → TAG breakdown

46
Q

how are proteins digested

A

Pepsin (in chief cells) → protein breakdown → short polypeptides → inc SA for digestion
Trypsin from the pancreas → makes peptide fragments (1-2-3)
Peptides absorbed with H+ gradient

47
Q

how are vitamins absorbed

A

Passive process in the jejunum and ileum
Vit B12 → intrinsic factor from stomach → aids in absorption
SI absorbs intrinsic factor → endocytosis
Dietary lipids absorb fat soluble ADEK

48

49
Q

what is the formula for cellular respiration? what is it used for?

A

6 H2O + 6CO2 + Sunshine ←> glucose (C6H12O6) + 6O2
recovery of food and chemical energy

50
Q

what is oxidation? what is reduction?

A

Oxidation → Losing a H+
Reduction → Gaining a H+

51
Q

how much ATP is stored in the body

A

100g

52
Q

what is the formula for energy produced from ATP

A

ATP + H2O + ATPAase → ADP + Pi + 7.3 kcal/mol energy

53
Q

What is the PCr formula for energy

A

PCr + ADP → CR + ATP

54
Q

how much ATPdoes NADH produce? how much for FADH2?

A

Net yield of 1.5 ATP per FADH2
Net yield of 2.5 ATP per NADH
1 ATP = 7kcal/mol

55
Q

How much energy does the ETC chain produce?

A

1 molecule of NADH makes 18kcal, and it is 34% efficient

56
Q

what are the 3 conditions of ATP resynthesis

A

Availability of NADH and FADH2 in tissues
Presence of oxidizing agent (O2) must be present in tissues
Sufficient [enzyme] and mitochondria in the tissues that are the rate determining factor of ATP resynthesis

57
Q

how does oxidation of lactate occur? (when O2 is available)

A

2 C2H5O3 (lactate) - 2H+ + (Lactate Dehydrogenase) → 2 C2H3O3 (Pyruvate)

58
Q

how does reduction of lactate occur? (when O2 is not available)

A

2 C3H3O3 (pyruvate) + 2 H+ + (Lactate dehydrogenase)→ 2 C2H5O3 (Lactate)

59
Q

How much energy does glucose generate?

A

1 C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 686 kcal energy
1 molecule ATP = 7.3 kcal therefore 686 kcal glucose energy = 686/7.3 = 93.9 ATP IN A CLOSED RXN
Bc ETC is only 34% efficient → 686*0.34 = 233 kcal/molecule gluc
233/7.3 = YIELDS 32 ATP total

60
Q

describe anerobic glucose breakdown

A

Glycolysis breaks down 2 C3H3O3 (pyruvate)
redux reaction

61
Q

describe aerobic glucose breakdown

A

Pyruvate breaks down → CO2 + H2O
Citric acid cycle breaks down the pyruvate → lactate → CO2 + H2O
Oxidative Reaction bc O2 is an H+ acceptor

62
Q

Describe the Cori cycle/lactate shuttle

A

Lactic acid from the muscle → veins → heart → Lactate + H+
Lactate → liver → converted to pyruvate (LDH) then pyruvate → glucose (gluconeogenesis → takes 6 ATP for this conversion)
Blood [glucose] maintained and muscle and liver glycogen stores are replenished
Glucose released in liver’s venous drainage → heart → arterial blood → skeletal muscle
Costly way of making glucose bc it takes 6 ATP just to convert the pyruvate → glucose

63
Q

what are the steps of the citric acid cycle

A

Stage 1:
Uses 1 acetate (Acetyl-CoA) and 3H2O per cycle
Produces 3CO2 per cycle
4 NAD+ → 4 NADH and 1FAD → FADH ( → ETC)
2 C3H3O3 + 6H2O → 6CO2 + 2OH + 2CoA
Stage 2:
Pyruvate + CoA +NAD+ → acetyl-CoA + CO2 + NADH + H+
Pyruvate is joined with CoA (to make acetyl-CoA) in the process you reduce NAD+ and get 2 H+
1 pyruvate = 3CO2, 8H+ (NADH and H+), 2H+ (FADH2) + 1 GTP

The products (NADH, H+, and FADH2) go into ETC and produce ATP via oxidative phosphorylation
Net yield: 32 ATP
