Brains wants glucose/glycogen

First 24 hr ~ glycogen

24-48 hrs ~ glucose depleted; protein 90%/ fat 10%

> 48 hrs ~ 90% fat; 10% protein

  • Shift to Ketosis
  • Ketones partially support brain's energy need
  • Loss of the appetite
  • Slowed Metabolism
  • Muscle wasting
  • Acetone breath
  • Lower resistance to infection
  • Ketones in the urine

What is the reserved energy in the body?

Reserved energy in the body is stored in the form of glycogen in the liver and muscles, as well as in adipose tissue (body fat). This energy can be used by the body when needed, such as during fasting or periods of increased energy demand.


What was the first energy converter that did not simply change the form of mechanical energy?

The first energy converter that did not simply change the form of mechanical energy was the thermocouple. Invented in the early 19th century, thermocouples are devices that convert heat energy directly into electrical energy through the Seebeck effect. They are widely used today in temperature measurement and control systems.


What were the first organisms to form on early earth?

bacteria


What is internal energy reserve in humans?

In humans, the internal energy reserve refers to the energy stored in the form of glycogen in the liver and muscles, as well as adipose tissue (body fat). This energy reserve is utilized during times of fasting or increased energy demand to provide fuel for metabolic processes and physical activity.


What is a kind of lipid that can store energy for a long period of time?

Triglycerides are a type of lipid that can store energy for a long period of time in the form of fatty acids. They are stored in adipose tissue throughout the body and are a major source of energy during times of fasting or energy deficiency.

What do you need to get energy?

You cannot create energy. You can simply convert energy from one form to another, for example potential energy to kinetic energy - dropping a ball, when the ball is released it has potential energy which is converted into kinetic energy as it falls (plus some heat energy). The total energy of a system has to remain constant, this principle, the conservation of energy, was first postulated in the early 19th century, and applies to any isolated system.


Why does fire produce heat?

fire- a form of energy (chemical+ light+other form) is converted to heat energy as per first law of thermodynamics


What theory states that if one form of energy can produce a second then the second form of energy should be able to produce the first form?

The principle you are describing is known as the principle of energy conservation, or the principle of the conservation of energy. This principle states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.


Is fasting and praying a form of worship?

They can be. When prayer is directed toward a deity it is usually a form of worship. When fasting is offered to a deity in atonement for sin or as a form of petition it is a form of prayer and so of worship.


Can the universe loses energy because of heat production due to the first law of thermodynamics?

Yes, the first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form to another. As the universe produces heat, this energy is not lost but rather transformed into other forms, such as radiation or kinetic energy.
