Since the liver is the primary organ for metabolism, then in the setting of liver injury there will be reduced metabolism of compounds such as hormones. If these hormones are not metabolized and degraded in the liver, then these hormone levels will increase.
<em>A particular example is that the hormone estrogen is increased in the setting of liver damage, causing males with liver failure to have feminine characteristics.</em>
Answer:
Carbohydrates can be described as biological molecules which are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Simple carbohydrates are known as monosaccharides. Example of monosaccharide includes glucose and fructose. Two molecules of monosaccharides can join to form disaccharides. Example of disaccharide includes maltose. When three or more monosaccharides join they form polymers known as polysaccharides. In this way, simple carbohydrates form larger molecules or polysaccharides. Examples of polysaccharides include starch, glycogen, cellulose etc.
