Question 20

True

False

Question 22

How long would it take to burn 100 grams of carbohydrate while exercising at a VO2 of 1.5 liters/min and an RER of 0.77?

	A.	1 hour, 32 minutes
	B.	3 hours, 20 minutes
	C.	4 hours, 11 minutes
	D.	5 hours, 17 minutes

Question 23

The electron transport is not utilized to make ATP when at rest.

True

False

Answer 1

18. The process is known as gluconeogenesis when glucose is formed from non-carbohydrate substances and is occur in liver. Gluconeogenesis is required to maintain optimum blood glucose level. Hence, option "d" is correct..

20. Fatty acid need to be activated before entering into any metabolic process. Hence fatty acid when attached with CoA , then only is able to enter the mitochondria.  

Hence this statement is " True"

23. The electron transport chain is always working . It is never off because it is used for generations of ATP that in turn release energy for the survival of organism. Hence, the statement is false.

Hence, this statement is "false".
