Answer: The correct answer would be 112.5 pounds
Explanation:
Let us first covert the pound into grams. We know that 1 pound is equal to 453.59 grams.
Thus, 50 pound of fat = 50 x 453.59 = 22,679.5 grams.
We know that, 1 gram of fat releases 9 Kcal of energy. Thus, total energy produced by 22679.5 grams = 9 x 22679.5 = 204,115.5 Kcal
Glycogen is carbohydrate thus, it will produce 4 Kcal of energy per gram.
Thus, 4 x C = 204,115.5 (where C is the grams of glycogen)
⇒ C =
⇒ C = 51,028.875 grams
Using 1 pound = 453.59 grams, we con convert 51,028.875 grams into pounds:
453.59 = 1
1 =
51,028.875 =
= 112.5 pounds
Thus, 112.5 pound of glycogen would be needed to produce the same amount of energy as produced by 50 pounds of fat.
Answer:
Explanation:
Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.
Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.
Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.
