When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis  decreases.

The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles  to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .

Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose  move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO

Give Jeason: si System is accepted by all nations in the world.<br>​
zubka84 [21]

it's very practical, because it's on base 10, so conversion between stuff like meters to kilometer is always just a multiplication with 10 to some power

like 1 km = 1000m (10³m)

or 1 m = 10^-3km = 0.001km

same reason for other SI units.

except time, that's base 60, or 12, or 24. that's more complicated, but there isn't any real competition

How does an enzyme’s active site relate to its substrate?
natita [175]
The active site is complementary to its substrate due to its specific 3D structure. The substrate fits in to one specific active site so an enzyme will only bind to one substrate. They are SPECIFIC. Lock and key theory.
