1. (Triglyceridase/Lipoprotein lipase/Lipoprotein hydrase/Pyruvate) is an enzyme that removed excess triglycerides from the bloodstream and put them into fat storage. This enzyme is found to have a higher rate of activity in obese individuals.

2. When more calories are taken in than expended energy balance is said to be (consistent/positive/negative/reversed)

3. Adipose tissue is made up of both fat and the (myofibrils/osteocytes/adipocytes/neurons) that store the fat.

4. The enzyme responsible for pulling circulating, excess triglycerides out of the bloodstream and placing them into fat storage is called (triglycerades/Lipoprotein lipase/protease/hydrolase)

5. While genetics have been found to play a role in a person’s susceptibility to develop obesity, lifestyle factors such as diet, stress management, and physical activity have been shown to play a role in the development of obesity. These factors are known as (epigenetic/ susceptibility/ genetic/ intrinsic) factors

6.When body fat increases, the hormone (cortisol/leptin/testosterone/ ghrelin) increases suppresses appetite.

7. (Gherlin/ Estrogen/ Norleptin/ Norepinephrine) is produced in the stomach and promotes appetite and weight gain. Levels generally increase before a meal and decrease after a meal.

Bolded part are the options to choose from for each question.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer 1: LIPOPROTEIN LIPASE

Explanation: Lipoprotein lipase hydrolyses triglycerides present in chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins into fatty acids and glycerol which are used for generation of energy or they are stored in body cells for future use.

Answer 2: POSITIVE ENERGY

Explanation: When the calories taken exceeds then calories used then body gains weight because of storage of excess calories and this is called as positive energy.

Answer 3: ADIPOCYTES

Explanation: Adipose tissue is made up of both fats and adipocytes. They store fat, insulates the body and also acts as cushion for the body organs.

Answer 4: LIPOPROTEIN LIPASE

Explanation: Lipoprotein lipase digests Triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol which are then stored in cells.

Answer 5: EPIGENETIC FACTORS

Explanation: Epigenetic factors does not changes the DNA sequence but it changes how the cells read the genes.

Answer 6: LEPTIN

Explanation: When body fat Increases then Leptin hormone secretion increases to suppress the appetite and gives the feeling of fullness. Leptin is called as satiety hormone.

Answer 7: GHRELIN

Explanation: GHRELIN is called as hunger hormone. It increases appetite and causes increase in intake of food. This hormone leads to obesity.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase is a huge multi-enzyme complex in which substrates are channeled from one enzyme to the next. In fact, recent evidence suggests that many citric acid cycle enzymes may interact pass substrates along the pathway and that the components of the electron transport chain associate into an electron transfer super complex. What are the advantages of such an arrangement?

Q1: hydrolysis of an ester using a Lipase CALB enzyme. 1. Use an organic chemistry textbook to draw the mechanism of hydrolysis of the corresponding non enzymatic reaction- ester hydrolysis using acid/base catalysis. Enzymatic reactions often involve general acid or general base catalysis rather than such specific acid or specific base catalysis. explain what this means. 3. With as much detail as you can identify the catalytic residues involved in each step, and discuss their involvement in the catalytic mechanism...
