1
The polysaccharide that stores glucose in mammalian cells is
  • cellulose
  • starch
  • glycogen
  • triglyceride
2
In terms of a chemical reaction, the opposite of a condensation reaction is
  • hydrolysis
  • expansion
  • evaporation
3
Which contains more glucose by percent?
  • honey
  • high fructose corn syrup
  • Sucrose
  • corn syrup
  • fructose
4
Most carbohydrates in the human diet is
  • from animal products
  • plant-derived
5
After ingestion of which one of these does blood glucose increase the slowest?
  • slowly-digesting startch
  • sucrose
  • corn syrup
6
Which type of polysaccharide could be cleaved to monomers more quickly because of a greater abundance of free ends?
  • linear polymer
  • branched-chain polymer
7
What is the ATP “cost” of adding a glucose molecule to a glycogen polymer?
  • there’s no role of ATP; the glycogen simply condenses spontaneously
  • one ATP is converted to ADP when a phosphate is transferred to glucose by hexokinase. Another ATP equivalent is consumed in the transfer of a glucosyl unit to UDP and then to glycogen.
8
Which contains the lowest amount (in total grams) of carbohydrate?
  • liver
  • blood plasma
  • skeletal muscle
9
This tissue does not express glucose 6-phosphatase and therefore cannot export glucose:
  • kidney
  • liver
  • skeletal muscle
10
insulin stimulates
  • glycogen synthesis
  • fatty acid uptake
  • glucose uptake into skeletal muscle, heart, and adipose tissue
  • lipolysis
  • all except lipolysis
11
All of these have similar effects on lipolysis and glycogenolysis EXCEPT
  • nonepinephrine
  • epinephrine
  • glucagon
  • insulin
12
When a glucosyl unit is cleaved from glycogen, it comes off
  • phosphorylated
  • non-phospohorylated
13
As exercise intensity increases
  • skeletal muscle glucose uptake decreases
  • protien utilization as fuel becomes more pronounced
  • skeletal muscle glucose uptake increases
14
When skeletal muscle glycogen levels are low in skeletal muscle
  • the muscle work intensity decreases
  • protien makes a contribution to oxidative substrate
  • oxidation of fats increases
  • all of the above
15
“Hitting the wall” in a long-duration aerobic event occurs because of
  • slow rate of ATP production when fat or protein are fuel compared to when carbohydrate is fuel
  • decreased Krebs cycle intermediates, meaning decreased overall respiratory rate
  • decreased glucose availability as fuel for the central nervous system
  • all of the above
16
what has a bent structure
  • cis-unsaturated fatty acid
  • saturated fatty acid
  • trans fatty acid
17
higher starting skeletal muscle glycogen levels
  • increased exercise time to deal with exhaustion
  • decrease exercise time to deal with exhaustion
18
Which has more stored caloric content in the human body?
  • fat
  • carb
19
When carbohydrate is the only oxidative fuel, the respiratory exchange ratio is
  • about in the middle between 0.7 and 1
  • 1
  • 0.7
20
The predominant fuel for high-intensity aerobic exercise is
  • protien
  • skeletal muscle glycogen
  • plasma glucose
  • fat
21
Aerobic training ________ capacity to burn fat at rest and during submaximal aerobic exercise.
  • decreases
  • does not affect
  • increases
22
Urea production during exercise is higher for someone on a
  • low carb diet
  • high carb diet
