List the physical pathway from the point of absorption of the glucose molecule in the gastrointestinal tract to getting to the right gastrocnemius muscle

Solutions

Expert Solution

Glucose is absorbed with Na+ ions on an SGLUT transporter.

Glucose ------> Jejunum -------> SGLUT1 -------> Interstitial epithelial cell -------> GLUT 2 transporter -----> Interstitial fluid -----> Superior mesenteric vein --------> Portal vein ------> Hepatic capillaries --------> Hepatic vein -------> Inferior vena cava -------> Right atrium ------> Tricuspid valve --------> Right ventricle -------> Pulmonary arteries -------> LUNG ---------> Pulmonary veins ------> Left atrium ------> Bicuspid valve -------> Left ventricle ------> Aorta ------> ascending aorta -------> Arch of aorta -------> Descending aorta ------> Abdominal aorta -------> Common iliac artery -------> Roght external iliac artery ----> Femoral artery ------> Popliteal artery ------> Lateral and Medial  sural artery ------> Gastrocnemius

When one glucose molecule enters the glycolytic pathway, two molecules of pyruvate are created. This change in stoichiometry is ultimately due to the actions of: A. hexokinase, which phosphorylates the glucose molecule. B. phosphofructokinase-1, which creates a doubly-phosphorylated fructose molecule. C. aldolase, which cleaves the doubly-phosphorylated fructose molecule into two different 3-carbon molecules. D. triose phosphate isomerase, which catalyzes the rearrangement of bonds within one dihydroxyacetone phosphate molecule. E. phosphoglycerate kinase, which dephosphorylates two molecules of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate.
