- A.
Carbohydrates
- B.
Proteins & Fats
- C.
Fats & Carbohydrates
- D.
Carbohydrates, Proteins & Fats
Correct Answer
D. Carbohydrates, Proteins & FatsExplanation
Energy is derived from the breakdown of nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. These macronutrients are broken down through various metabolic processes in the body to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Carbohydrates are the body's primary source of energy, as they are easily broken down into glucose. Proteins can also be converted into glucose through a process called gluconeogenesis, and they can also be broken down into amino acids to be used for energy. Fats are a concentrated source of energy and are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol to be used as fuel. Therefore, all three macronutrients contribute to the production of energy in the body.Rate this question:

What is chemiosmosis ?
- A.
Production of ATP "Citric Acid Cycle "
- B.
When a Phosphate bond breaks away from the Tri Phosphate molecule
- C.
The enzyme ATP Synthase sysnthesizes ADP to AMP
- D.
The enzyme ATP Synthase synthesizes ATP from ADP & Phosphate
Correct Answer
D. The enzyme ATP Synthase synthesizes ATP from ADP & PhosphateExplanation
Chemiosmosis is the process by which ATP is synthesized in the mitochondria during cellular respiration. It involves the movement of protons (H+) across the inner mitochondrial membrane through ATP synthase, a protein complex. As the protons move through ATP synthase, it catalyzes the synthesis of ATP from ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate (Pi). This process is driven by the proton gradient established during the electron transport chain, where electrons are passed along a series of protein complexes, pumping protons from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembrane space. The movement of protons back into the matrix through ATP synthase powers the synthesis of ATP.Rate this question:

The break down of ATP UP happens in the
- A.
Stomach
- B.
Liver
- C.
Small intestine
- D.
Large intestine
Correct Answer
C. Small intestineExplanation
ATP is broken down in the small intestine. This is because the small intestine is responsible for the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. ATP, which is the energy currency of the body, is produced during cellular respiration in the mitochondria. When food is broken down in the small intestine, the nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream. ATP is then produced from these nutrients in the cells of the body, including the small intestine itself. Therefore, the small intestine is the site where ATP breakdown occurs.Rate this question:

The number of pyruvate molecules produced from 1 glucose molecule during glycolysis is
- A.
4
- B.
6
- C.
2
- D.
8
Correct Answer
C. 2Explanation
During glycolysis, one glucose molecule is converted into two pyruvate molecules. This process occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration. The conversion of glucose to pyruvate produces a small amount of ATP and NADH, which can then be used in subsequent steps of cellular respiration to generate more energy. Therefore, the correct answer is 2, as two pyruvate molecules are produced from one glucose molecule during glycolysis.Rate this question:

For cellular reactions ATP produced moves out of the mitochondria
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
ATP is produced in the mitochondria through cellular respiration. Once produced, ATP molecules move out of the mitochondria and into the cytoplasm of the cell where they can be used as a source of energy for various cellular reactions. This movement of ATP out of the mitochondria allows it to be readily available for the cell's energy needs. Therefore, the statement "For cellular reactions ATP produced moves out of the mitochondria" is true.Rate this question:

What are the causes of ATP depletion ?
- A.
Reduced supply of oxygen & nutrients/ Damage to mitochondria
- B.
Action of certain toxic chemicals/ Damage to mitochondria/ Reduced supply of CO2
- C.
Damage to mitochondria only.
- D.
Reduced supply of oxygen & nutrients/ Damage to mitochondria/Action of certain toxic chemicals
Correct Answer
D. Reduced supply of oxygen & nutrients/ Damage to mitochondria/Action of certain toxic chemicalsExplanation
The correct answer is that ATP depletion can be caused by a reduced supply of oxygen and nutrients, damage to mitochondria, and the action of certain toxic chemicals. These factors can all interfere with the normal functioning of mitochondria, which are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration. Reduced oxygen and nutrient supply can limit the availability of substrates needed for ATP synthesis, while damage to mitochondria can disrupt their ability to generate ATP. Additionally, certain toxic chemicals can directly inhibit ATP production or damage mitochondria, leading to ATP depletion.Rate this question:

Endothelium Derived Relaxing Factor ( EDHF) has no role in vasodilation
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The statement "Endothelium Derived Relaxing Factor (EDHF) has no role in vasodilation" is false. EDHF is a key mediator in vasodilation, along with nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin (PGI2). It is released by endothelial cells in response to various stimuli, such as shear stress or agonists. EDHF acts on smooth muscle cells to induce relaxation and vasodilation, thereby regulating blood flow and blood pressure. Its mechanisms of action involve the activation of potassium channels and the production of hyperpolarizing factors. Overall, EDHF plays a crucial role in endothelium-dependent vasodilation.Rate this question:

Exogenous administration of ATP will
- A.
Replace the metabolically generated ATP
- B.
Alter the metabolic reactions of ATP production
- C.
Not replace the metabolically generated ATP
- D.
Increase the ATP levels in the body significantly
Correct Answer
C. Not replace the metabolically generated ATPExplanation
Exogenous administration of ATP will not replace the metabolically generated ATP because exogenous ATP is not efficiently taken up and utilized by cells. The body tightly regulates ATP levels through metabolic reactions, and exogenous ATP is typically broken down into its component parts before it can be used as an energy source. Therefore, the metabolically generated ATP remains the primary source of energy for cellular processes.Rate this question:
