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".

The steps in the hemostasis process are (1) platelets become sticky and form a platelet plug, (2) walls of a damaged blood vesse
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: D. 2-1-3

Explanation:

Hemostasis can be define as a process which causes bleeding to stop when an injury occurs .This process is carried out through this 3 steps;

Vascular Spasm or Vasoconstriction : In this step, the body constrict the blood vessel to reduce the flow of blood to the affected area.

Formation of the Platelet Plug : In this step the body respond by activating platelets which encounters the affected area, becomes sticky and forms a plug that serves as a barrier against blood flow.

Coagulation: Involves the formation of a blood clot. It is a complex process that has Fibrin as it's end product. Fibrin is more like a glue that holds the platelets plug together.

The Fibrin clot gains strength and then dissolves when the walls of the affected blood vessels close and heals.
