Researchers can manipulate the genes of a mouse so that a single gene in a single tissue either produces an inactive protein (a

knockout mouse) or produces a protein that is always (constitutively) active. What effects on metabolism would you predict for mice with these genetic changes?

Answer:

1) The genetic changes can lead to a reduction in the capacity of the mice to move glycogen at its branches points and lowers blood glucose levels between meals.

2) Genetic changed can lead to a decrease in the capacity to lower blood glucose due to the knock out of the hexokinase gene leading to elevated levels in the bloodstream.

(c) A knockout of FBPase2 will result in elevated levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate in

liver favoring the glycolytic pathway and inhibiting gluconeogenesis by the decrease of fructose 1,6-

bisphosphatase-1 activity

(d) An active FBPase-2 will now favor gluconeogenesis and this inhibits glycolysis. I.e. a decrease in PFK-1 activity while increasing FBPase-1 activity simultaneously.

What can you do to ensure that you will continue to be motivated for the duration of your fitness program?
avanturin [10]
1. Make a goal for yourself. When you finish your fitness program(achieve your goal) you can reward yourself with like icecream or a small treat.

2. Make working out fun so that you will keep wanting to do it. For example, work-out or go to the fitness program with a friend, listen to music while doing it, etc.

3. You can make yourself motivated by watching fitness videos and basically watching things to get inspiration(trust me this works).After you watch the vids, your gonna want to keep going to the fitness program cause of all the benefits and things like that. 

4. Ask a friend or someone to push you to keep going(if all else fails and you wanna quit) They will annoy you so much that it would just be better to go to the fitness program than hear them annoy you.

5. Think why your going to regret not going. This is gonna make you want to go to the fitness program.

6. Honestly if the others don't work, do it for the pictures and so that you can brag to people that you work out and stuff.

That's all I got for now. Hope it helped motivate you to keep going to that fitness program <span />
