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".

Answer:

Its false  

Amphicoelias altus (from the gr. "Hollow character on both high sides") is the only known species of the extinct genus. Titoniense, in what is now North America. Amphicoelias is present in stratigraphic zone 6 of the Morrison Formation

It was also similar in size to Diplodocus, about 25 meters long. Although most scientists have used this data to distinguish Amphicoelias and Diplodocus as separate genera, at least one has suggested that Amphicoelias is probably the largest synonym for Diplodocus.3 Amphicoelias altus, was named by paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope in December of 1877, although it was not published until 1878, for an incomplete skeleton consisting of two vertebrae, a pubis, the hip, and a femur, bone of the upper leg.4 Cope also named a second species, A. fragillimus
