How much time is usually needed in intense activity to cause depletion of glycogen glucose?
Two hours.
What is the subunits of glycogen?
i think glucose ..it convert into glycogen by the help of glycogen
Chemical compounds that are converted to glycogen?
Glycogen synthesis is an endergonic reaction that utilizes UTP to form UDP-glucose. UDP-glucose is then turned into glycogen by the glycogen synthase enzyme.
The only polysaccharide in the human body is?
Glycogen
The major storage sites for glycogen in the body are?
In the body the major storage sites for glycogen are the muscles and the liver. Glycogen is found in low concentration areas of the body.
Which of the following is not a characteristic of caffeine used in physical activity?
It slows depletion of muscle glycogen Nutrition 200~jm~
Depletion of stored glycogen causes?
fatigue....
How much time is usually needed in intense activity to cause depletion of glycogen glucose?
Two hours.
Which of the following statements about glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is incorrect?
AMP is an inhibitor of glycogen phosphorylase.
Which of the following would be used as energy in the human body source only after depletion of other sources glycogen in muscle cells calcium phosphate in bones glucose in the blood protein in mu?
glucose is the most efficient form of "food." Glucose would be used first. Protein in muscles will only be broken down in extreme starvation. As for the other answers, glucose is the energy source of choice and is the first to be broken down. Glycogen becomes the predominant energy source and glucose levels become depleted. Calcium phosphate cannot be used to generate ATPs in the body in any way.
What has the author William L Rumsey written?
William L Rumsey has written: 'Sex-related influences on exercise-induced myocardial phosphorylase conversion and associated glycogen depletion'
What happens when the liver has no glycogen reserve?
total absence of glycogen in the liver may be rare but rather an abnormally low levels of glycogen is more common. This could be as a result of an impairment in any of the enzymes involved in glycogen synthesis. Now, when glycogen is low,the body will look for another source of energy. The next immediate source is fatty acid . Hence low glycogen levels will lead rapid breakdown of fatty acids which when it becomes continuous can cause weight loss.. but the brain poorly utilizes fatty acids for energy production... hence a continous depletion of glycogen levels may result in some neurological impairments..
Which of the following enzymes is not required to breakdown glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules for further metabolism?
All of these enzymes are necessary in the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate molecules.
Which of the following is a characteristic of glycogen synthesis after a bout of strenous training?
Glycogen repletion is enhanced most by eating foods w/a high glycemic index Nutrition 200~jm~
What factors cause fatigue from prolonged exercise?
The evidence Fatigue during prolonged exercise is definitely associated with depletion of glycogen stored in the liver (causing hypoglycaemia - low blood sugar) or in the muscles
Which one of the following can store the largest total amount of Glycogen in the human body?
Skeletal muscle
What is the smallest polysaccharide?
glycogen
