Answer: b) Lipogenesis
Explanation:
The postabsorptive state reaction is a reaction which occurs in the state of fasting. In this postabsorptive state the digestive tract remains empty as a result of this the breakdown of the body reserves takes place.
All except the lipogenesis is not the postabsorptive state reaction. This is because of the fact that lipogenesis involves the synthesis of the fatty acids and lipids from typically the carbohydrates and other substances.
Answer: d. Confounding
Explanation:
In the context of a scientific study such as this one, a confounding factor is one that has influence on both the exposure and event variable(s), which may lead to over- or underestimation of the direct relationship between them (if any).
For instance: In this example, researchers may have had reason to believe that male gender is associated with both higher risk of obesity (the exposure variable) and adult-onset asthma (the event variable). If gender is not taken into account, one may claim that the finding of an association between obesity and asthma is simply an artifact due to the high proportion of male patients (likely to present with both). <em>Controlling</em> for that variable (such as by matching, as in this example) allows researchers to test for this hypothesis.
