True or False. Cis fatty acids have a higher melting point than trans fatty acids. - False. Cis fatty acids have a LOWER melting point than trans fatty acids. T or F. In PKU, phenylalanine is a conditionally essential amino acid because it cannot be synthesized from tryptophan. - False. In PKU, TYROSINE is a conditionally essential amino acid because it cannot be synthesized from PHENYLALANINE. T or F. In triglyceride digestion in the small intestine, phospholipase A2 produces glycerol and ...

If consuming a no carbohydrate diet, what would the brain use as its primary energy source? Where would these come from? Why does it use these and not fatty acids? - The brain would have to use ketone bodies as its primary energy source since it is unable to use carbohydrates and also unable to go through beta oxidation and utilize fatty acids. The ketone bodies would come from the liver. Your friend rarely drinks alcohol, but at a social event is drinking heavily. How would he/she be metab...

T/F Your friend synthesizes a compound that is 3 fructoses and 4 galactose bonded together. This compound is selectively fermented by beneficial colon bacteria and thus is both polysaccharide and a probiotic - False, Your friend synthesizes a compound that is 3 fructoses and 4 galactose bonded together. This compound is selectively fermented by beneficial colon bacteria and thus is both OLIGOSACCHARIDE and a PREBIOTIC T/F Different than the PDCAAS, the DIAAS uses ill vs total digestibility,...

Where does the name Vitamin come from? - Vital amines --> Vitamines, but when it was discovered they weren't amines, the E was dropped Fat soluble vitamins - A, D, E, K Water Soluble Vitamins - C, B What B vitamin numbers are missing? Why? - B4, B8, B10, B11 Were discovered and then removed due to redudancy EV McCollum and vitamins - Theorized fat-soluble factor A that deficiency led to ophthalmia (inflammation of the eye) and water-soluble factor B resulted in beriberi Factor A --&g...

Which of the following is FALSE? Enterocytes mature out of gastric pits. Enterocytes can be sloughed off. Uptake doesn't guarantee absorption. Absorption is when a compound reaches circulation. - False Enterocytes mature FROM STEM CELLS IN THE CRYPTS OF LIEBERKUHN Which of the following are CORRECT? -In osmosis water moves from higher solute concentration to lower solute concentration. -In osmosis water moves from lower solute concentration to higher solute concentration. -In simple...
