Which of the following inhibits gluconeogenesis?
a. glycogen
b. insulin
c. catecholamines
d. glucocorticoids
b. insulin
Gluconeogenesis is the formation of glucose from non-CHO sources
(glycerol, glucogenic AA, lactate). Gluconegenesis is a ANABOLIC reactant
(building, creating), so insulin glucagon of epinephrine would be release to
initiate the process. This question acts what would INHIBIT
gluconeogenesis. Insulin is release when there is ENOUGH glucose in the
body. If insulin were released, you know that there is circulating glucose
that must be uptaken by the cells. Subsequently, insulin would inhibit
gluconeogenesis.
Glucocorticoids stimulate gluconeogenesis. Catecholamines, including
epinephrine, can also stimulate gluconeogenesis espeically during metabolic
stress. Glycogen is the storage form of glucose, which doesn't make sense
for the question.
,Which has the lowest cholesterol content?
a. peanut butter and crackers
b. yogurt with fruit
c. chocolate cake
d. roast beef sandwich
a. peanut butter and crackers
Dietary cholesterol is found in animal products/byproducts. Subsuquently,
peanut buter and crackers would have the lowest cholesterol content.
What is the difference between cake flour and bread flour?
a. cake flour has less gluten, weaker gluten, less protein
b. bread flour has less gluten, weaker gluten, less protein
c. cake flour has weaker gluten, but has more protein
d. bread flour has stronger gluten and less protein
a. cake flour has less gluten, weaker gluten, less protein
Think of cakes vs breads. Breads are have stronger gluten because it's
typically firmer/tougher. Cakes are moister. Bread also has more protein
content (chewy crumb vs lower protein content = tender crumb), and thus A is
the answer.
,Vitamin A is involved in:
a. growth and development
b. blood clotting
c. growth of bones and teeth
d. development of tissue and skin
a. development of tissue and skin
Vitamin A has a variety of functions. Vitamin A is involved in the visual cycle
(uses 11-cis- retinal, which binds with protein opsin to form rhodopsin),
maintenance of epithelial tissue (skin and lining of eyes, gut, lungs, vagina &
bladder), growth (stimulates growth of epithelial cells, possibly by increasing
cell surface receptors for growth factors), cellular differentiation,
reproduction, and immune function.
Assuming growth in the above mentioned function would fall more under
development of tissue/skin. Growth and development would be different in
that case and thus not the answer.
A patient with metabolic alkalosis would have:
a. excess excretion of base through the kidneys
b. retention of base by the lungs
c. excretion of base by the lungs
d. retention of base by the kidney
d. retention of base by the kidney
Metabolic = kidneys, respiratory =
lungs
Alkalosis = retention of bicarb by kidneys, acidosis = excretion of bicard by
kidneys
Subsequently, metabolic alkalosis would be retention of base by the kidneys.
, Which foods should be washed just before serving?
a. plums and grapes
b. peaches and carrots
c. strawberries and mushrooms
d. apples and celery
c. strawberries and mushrooms
Berries and mushrooms should be washed right before serving, as it they are
washed well before they are intended to be eaten, they will become mushy.
Which government agency inspects and grades meat?
a. FDA
b. DHHS
c. USDA
d. department of commerce
c. USDA
Inspection of meat is mandatory per Whole Meat Act of 1967 and is done at
slaughter by USDA.
