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".

What is true concerning hemoglobin.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

A protein molecule present in the RBCs, which helps in the transportation of oxygen from the lungs to the different parts of the body and brings back carbon dioxide, that is, collected from different parts of the body back to the lungs is known as hemoglobin.  

The general features of hemoglobin are that it comprises four molecules of protein in the form of globulin chains. In adults, the molecules of hemoglobin comprise two beta-globulin chains and two alpha globulin chains, while in infants and fetuses, the beta chains are least found, and is substituted by two gamma chains.  

Each globulin chain comprises an essential iron-containing compound porphyrin, which is termed as heme. Together both iron and heme play an essential role in circulating oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. This iron gives the red appearance to the blood.
