When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis  decreases.

The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles  to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .

Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose  move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO

The circulatory system consists of two divisions and is supplied with blood by different sides of the heart. The right heart sup
liq [111]

Answer:

pulmonary circuit,  systemic circuit

Explanation:

The circulatory system consists of 2 circuits -

pulmonary circuit

systemic circuit.                  

The pulmonary circuit carries deoxygenated blood. The right auricle receives the impure blood by superior and inferior vena cava, then the blood enters the right ventricle. From the right ventricle, the deoxygenated blood moves to the lungs by the pulmonary artery.

In the lungs, the deoxygenated blood gets oxygenated and enters the left ventricle through pulmonary veins. The pureblood then passes into the left ventricle and then the ventricle pumps the oxygenated blood to different parts of the body. This blood passes to the body aways from the heart by aorta. When the blood gets deoxygenated, it again enters the right auricle. In this way, double circulation occurs and both types of blood do not mix together.
