What is the formation of glucose from proteins and fats?
Gluconeogenesis
What is the process called when making glucose from non carbohydrate substances within the liver?
gluconeogenesis
What do you mean of physiological value?
Physiological values are the homeostatic values of the variable concerned. So, the physiological value of glucose in the cell would be the normal amount of glucose that you would find in the cell (intracellularly), not in abnormal or disease conditions (pathophysiological conditions). Hope this helps.
What promotes gluconeogenesis?
Cortisol
How fructose-1-phosphate inhibit gluconeogenesis?
The fructose-1-phosphate inhibits gluconeogenesis through the enzyme aldolase.
What is anabolic role of gluconeogenesis?
The anabolic role of gluconeogenesis is to break new glucose molecules from non-carbohydrate precursors.
What is a Physiological adaptations of a plant?
It may be a mesophyte, hydrophyte or xerophyte depending on the environmental conditions
What is the effect of alcohol on gluconeogenesis?
Increased ethanol will give increased NADH. Because NADH levels are higher, the body will produce more pyruvate and less lactate. Since lactate is a precursor for gluconeogenesis, gluconeogenesis will decrease.
What modifications of conditions would be appropriate if the enzyme were to be used?
Physiological conditions, such as correct pH and heat in which the enzyme is able to function correctly, are required.
The tendency for physiological systems to stabilize internal conditions with respect to the external environment is called?
homeostasis
What nutrient undergoes gluconeogenesis?
Proteins
Why thyroxine promotes gluconeogenesis?
Thyroxine upregulates catecholamine receptors which is equivalent to increasing sympathetic tonus and thus directly contributing to increased gluconeogenesis.
