What are the conditions that lead to a "beer gut" due to the excess consumption of alcohol? NADH produced from the metabolism of

ethanol stimulates the citric acid cycle for glucose-derived acetyl CoA. Excess ethanol metabolism leads to an accumulation of NADH that inhibits fatty acid metabolism. The processing of acetate in the liver becomes inefficient leading to a pH imbalance in liver cells, reducing enzyme efficiency in general. NADH inhibits ketone body formation, stimulating glucose rather than fatty acid metabolism. NADH stimulates citric acid cycle enzymes that stimulates glucose-derived acetyl CoA metabolism.

Answer: Excess ethanol metabolism leads to an accumulation of NADH that inhibits fatty acid metabolism.

Explanation:

Fatty acid metabolism is often activated by limited or absence of NADH, however ethanol (the main constituent of most alcoholic drinks) on metabolism yields several molecules of NADH which rather stimulates belly/abdominal fat production often referred to as "beer gut".

Which of the following statements about oxidative phosphorylation by ATP synthase is FALSE? A) The electrochemical gradient acro
Alina [70]

Answer

D)A proton gradient alone without a corresponding energy input is not sufficient to drive the synthesis of ATP

Explanation:

Oxidative phosphorylation reffers to metabolic pathway whereby enzyme is used by the cell to achieve nutrient oxidation, so that chemical energy of molecular oxygen is released as a result of this, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is manufactured. oxidative phosphorylation is seen in all organisms that are aerobic in nature and it occur in the mitochondria of all eukaryotic organisms. There is electron transfer during oxidative phosphorylation, the electrons moves from the donor to the receptor and this is known as redox reaction, as a result of this energy is released, and this energy is used for formation of ATP.

Therefore,among all the options, A proton gradient alone without a corresponding energy input is not sufficient to drive the synthesis of ATP is the false statement.
