adipokines with osteoblast activity are in which of the following types of adipose tissue? - Beige adipose tisuue -white adipose tissue -Bone marrow adipose tissue -Brown Adipose
Match the following to their proper description (answers may be used more than once). Fibroblasts Connective tissue White adipose tissue Brown adipose tissue Adipocytes Brown adipose tissue White adipose tissue Procollagen Procollagen molecules Collagen Collagen molecules Fibrillin Allows diffusion of free fatty acids into capillaries Are assembled in the ER as a triple helix from three alpha-chains. Consists of cells that contain multiple lipid droplets and numerous mitochondria. Consists of cells that contain one large central droplet of fat in their cytoplasm. Form fibers to build structures such as tendons, organ capsules, and dermis. Forms microfibrils required for the deposition of elastin. Is synthesized as alpha-chain that translocate into the ER cisternae. Is the most abundant protein in the human body. Metabolizes free fatty acids for heat production through non-shivering thermogenesis. Originates from mesenchyme. Respond to norepinephrine stimulation by activating…

In order for vitamin D to be actively formed, which of the following actions is required in the body? 1. chemical conversion in the liver and kidney to its active form 2. increased fluid intake to maintain homeostasis 3. increased calcium levels stimulate PTH release to restore adequate serum levels 4. conversion of vitamin D metabolites in the liver to its active form of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3
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
Which of the following are mechanisms that prevent the liver from using up glucose that is more urgently required by other tissues? (select all that apply) Group of answer choices Glucokinase (the liver's version of hexokinase) has a lower affinity for glucose than hexokinase does GLUT2 has a lower affinity for glucose than GLUT4 does The liver produces insulin when blood glucose levels are low The liver does not express a phosphofructokinase enzyme The liver increases glycolysis in response to glucagon
which of the following is not true for a muscle that is forced to metabolize glucose anaerobically ? - The cells breakdown glucose faster - The cells produce less ATP per mole of glucose - The cells metabolize glucose to lactate - The activity of the cytosolic gycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase will be required for the muscle to sustain glycolysis - The muscle quickly experiences fatigue if it is deficient in the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase
Which of the following is least likely to contribute to reduced fat oxidation at high intensities? Group of answer choices pick one only Inhibited lipolysis Increased lactic acid production. Inhibited FA transport into the muscle. Inhibited FA transport into the mitochondria
This is not a result of fatty acid deficiency: Hand tremors Dry scaly skin Obesity Dermatitis
