3. A patient has got excess carbohydrate meal for the years and gain the weight. Toexplain this:a) draw the schemes of TAG synthesis in the liver;b) describe the transport of TAG from the liver to adipose tissue;c) describe the functions of insulin in the conversion of glucose to TAG in theliver and adipose tissue.Glucose containing Catoms was added to isolated hepatocytes inanexperiment.Ifthe glucose was added in excess, the rate of triacylglyccrol synthesis increased.

Carbohydrates are macromolecules made up of H, C, and O. It provides energy to the body. The body…
