What is the role of an enzyme? Describe and Give an example of enzyme specificity? What does it mean when a person is a lactose intolerant? Biologically, what causes this? How can it be temporarily be treated? Why is it dangerous for an individual to have a very high fever left untreated? (Hint: think enzymes)
You eat a sandwich and the components are: bread, cucumber, your choice of meat or non-meat protein (ex: tofu), cheese. Respond to the following questions regarding digestion and energy balance 1. What is the hormone ratio for glucagon and insulin after eating the sandwich. Create a graph of how blood glucose levels change within 20 minutes of eating the sandwich. . 2. What state(s) is your body in (circle one for each pair): post absorptive/absorptive, catabolic/anabolic, fasted/fed 3. Create a chart/drawing showing where digestion takes place for each component (bread/veggies, cheese, protein choice). • location • phase • absorbable unit one hormone/secretion/enzyme that aids in the process what organs contribute and if they are exocrine or endocrine cells participating
If an individual is exercising at a low intensity for several hours, how would the concentrations of substrates change in plasma? Plasma levels of free fatty acids would increase as triglycerides are broken down for sustained energy. They remain stable and unaffected by exercise. Plasma glucose levels would gradually increase the longer exercise continues. Plasma levels of amino acids would increase, as protein breakdown would be needed to fuel continued exercise

Explain the specific stages in glycolysis that are regulated and how they are regulated. Remember to include all reactants, products and enzymes. Include the conditions for how they are regulated.
Which of the following statements best describes the absorption of glucose? Absorption of glucose requires digestion by aminopeptidases on absorptive epithelial microvilli before absorption of the carbohydrate smaller units such as glucose. Absorption of glucose requires an electrochemical gradient of high extracellular K+ set up by primary active transport. Absorption of glucose occurs at villi and crypts mainly in the duodenum where amylases break down carbohydrates into glucose. Absorption of glucose occurs at the transporting epithelia in the small intestine and is a secondary active transport that requires a Na+gradient
