breaks down fats into glycerol and fatty acids. It is used to mobilize stored energy during fasting or exercise.

Lipolysis

23
Q

a condition that disturbs the body normal acid-base balance.

A

Ketosis-

24
Q

what happens to fat fragments that combine with each other

A

they form ketone bodies

25
Q

Is the sweetest of simple sugars, it is found in
honey, most fruits and some vegetables. It is
converted into glucose in the body.

A

Fructose

26
Q

Not found free in foods. It is produced from
lactose by digestion and is converted into
glucose in the body.

A

Galactose

27
Q

Double-sugars are made up of 2 monosaccharides. They are
sweet and unlike monosaccharides, they must be change into
simple sugars by hydrolysis before they can be absorbed.

A

Disaccharides

Q

give types of disaccharides

A

Sucrose

Lactose

maltose

29
Q

Ordinary table-sugar-granulated,
powdered or brown. Composed of
glucose and fructose. process from cane and beet sugar

A

Sucrose

30
Q

what happens to sucrose upon digestion

A

turns into glucose and galactose

31
Q

Found in milk and milk products
except cheese. Remains in the intestine longer
than other sugars and encourages
the growth of certain useful
bacteria.

A

Lactose

32
Q

It is converted into
glucose and galactose upon
digestion and is less soluble and
less sweet than fructose.

A

lactose

33
Q

Produced by hydrolysis of starch and is
converted into glucose in digestion.
Not found free in foods.

A
