- Why is carbon monoxidetoxic for humans?arrow_forwardHemoglobin glycation (so named to distinguish it from glycosylation, which is the enzymatic transfer of glucose to a protein) is a non-enzymatic process that involves reaction of the N-terminal amino group of hemoglobin and glucose. The amount of glycated hemoglobin (GHB) is usually about 5% of total hemoglobin (and corresponds to a blood glucose concentration of 120 mg/100 mL). However, in people with untreated diabetes this value may be as high as 13%, which indicates an average blood level of about 300 mg/100 mL -dangerously high. One of the aims of insulin therapy is to maintain GHB values of about 7%. Draw a possible chemical scheme for the glycation of hemoglobin.arrow_forwardAll of the following statements about glucose are true except: Glucose is metabolized in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic organisms. On a low-carb diet, keto acids from glucogenic amino acids will be used to synthesize glucose. Glucose is metabolized in the mitochondria of mature red blood cells. Under non-starvation conditions, the brain relies exclusively on glucose as its fuel source.arrow_forward
- If cells are deprived of oxygen, what is the effect on the production of cellularenergy? Be specific.arrow_forwardHemoglobin molecules exposed to high levels of glucose areconverted to glycated products. The most common, referred to as hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), contains a b-chain glycatedadduct. Because red blood cells last about 3 months, HbA1Cconcentration is a useful measure of a patient’s blood sugarcontrol. In general terms, describe why and how HbA1Cforms.arrow_forwardThough it has been banned for use in baby bottles, BPA is still widely used to manufacture other plastic items and epoxies (such as the coating on the inside of metal cans of food). BPA-free plastics are often manufactured with a related compound, bisphenol S (BPS), which has effects similar to BPA. Imagine you are part of a group lobbying for increased control of BPA and BPS in manufactured products. How would you best summarize the results of this study to help support your case? A. I read a study once that said BPA was bad. B. A 1998 study from Case Western University proved that BPA causes birth defects. C. A 1998 study found that increasing exposure to BPA-leaching plastic sources increased the percentage of abnormalities in mouse oocytes, which could lead to an increased risk of birth defects. D. A 1998 study found that even the smallest exposure to BPA-leaching plastics causes a high percentage of abnormalities in mouse oocytes, which could lead…arrow_forward
- What are the structural differences between vitamin C and sugars? Do these structural differences play a role in the susceptibility of this vitamin to air oxidation?arrow_forwardDEFINE THE FOLLOWING TERMS: a) Metabolism b) Catabolism c) Anabolism Please explain this in-detailed and longer, thank you.arrow_forwardThe respiratory quotient (RQ) is the ratio of the Liters of CO2 produced to the Liters of O2 consumed by an individual (CO2 exhaled in liters)/(O2 inhaled in liters). It is used as a measure of basal metabolic rate and can indicate which types of molecules are being used by a person to produce energy. For glucose (C6H12O6), this value is 1 as the equation for the complete oxidation of glucose is: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O For fatty acids that are degraded through beta oxidation and fed into the TCA cycle, the RQ value would be ______ the values for glucose oxidation. Fill in the blank with: a) higher than b) the same as c) lower thanarrow_forward
- "which of the following can be used to replenish oxaloacetate in the krebs cycle"a. aspartic acid b.glutamine c.asparagine d. glutamic acidarrow_forwardStep 6 of the citric acid cycle is shown. Which statement best describes the role of FAD in this reaction? CH₂ lal CH₂ FAD FADH₂ CO₂ CO₂ succinate CH CH fumarate OA) FAD causes the oxidation of succinate to form fumarate. B) FAD causes succinate to undergo hydration to form fumarate. C) FAD causes the isomerication of succinate to form fumarate. D) FAD causes the reduction of succinate to form fumarate.arrow_forwardAutotrophic organisms such as plants, algae, blue green alga, and chemosynthetic bacteria are rarely mentioned in pathology because they do not cause disease in other types of living things. What is it about the metabolic machinery of autotrophs that makes them unlikely to cause disease in people?arrow_forward
