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 the term expressing how a receptor can be stimulated by a certain stimulus but not any other stimuli?
Sveta_85 [38]

Receptor specificity Physical energy such as light, sound, and heat is detected by specialized receptor cells in the sense organs—eyes, ears, skin, nose, and tongue. When the action potential that relays information about the stimulus through the nervous system to the brain. Sensory receptors take in information from the environment, creating local electrical currents; These currents are graded.

Gene testing is foolproof since it scans the building blocks of humans. Please select the best answer from the choices provided.
Harrizon [31]

False

reason -

Gene testing is not full proof as there are  possibilities of discrepancies in it based on the testing procedures used and the condition of sample. Since we human beings have the same genomic structure there are chances that our DNA may match with other people who do not share a heredity with our family. Basically statistical probability is used to determine probability of paternity, relationship of any kind etc. among two individuals . usually A 99% or higher percentage of probability is considered conclusive. and thus it gene testing can not be considered as full proof

Answer:

c. Spindle fibers

Explanation:

In eukaryotic cells, the centrioles are small sets of microtubules composed of tubulin proteins. Moreover, in animal cells, a centrosome is an organelle localized near the nucleus which contains a pair of centrioles. These organelles (centrosomes) are referred to as microtubule-organizing centers. During Anaphase, centrioles move to opposite sides in the cell in order to organize the spindle fibers and separate the chromosomes during cell division.
