Which pathway is the opposite of gluconeogenesis? Glycogenesis Glycolysis Glycogenolysis Lipolysis
Glycolysis
In the fasted state, which hormone combination would occur? Higher glucagon and no insulin Higher glucagon and lower insulin Higher insulin and lower glucagon High glucagon and high insulin
Higher glucagon and lower insulin
What happens to excess glucose in the body? It is converted to protein. It is stored as ATP in the liver. It continues to circulate in the blood. It is used for lipogenesis.
It is used for lipogenesis
How does the binding of insulin to its receptor stimulate glucose uptake from the bloodstream? It stimulates insertion of GLUT4 transporters in the cell membrane. It turns on genes so that more GLUT4 channel is made. It causes GLUT4 channels to open.. It causes liver cells to release GLUT4.
It stimulates insertion of GLUT4 transporters in the cell membrane
What cells in the body respond to glucagon by breaking down glycogen and releasing glucose? Intestinal cells. Liver cells. Liver cells and cells in the pancreas. Muscle cells. Cells in the pancreas.
Liver cells
Body cells that respond to insulin include Liver cells only. Liver cells, as well as most other cells of the body. Liver cells and muscle cells only. Intestinal cells only. Muscle cells only.
Liver cells, as well as most other cells of the body
A liver cell responds to insulin by Breaking down glycogen and releasing glucose. Taking in glucose and converting it to glycogen. Releasing insulin. Taking in glucose and converting it to glucagon. Releasing glucagon.
Taking in glucose and converting it to glycogen
When blood glucose levels are low The pancreas releases insulin, which eventually causes blood glucose levels to increase. The pancreas releases glucagon, which eventually causes blood glucose levels to decrease. The pancreas releases insulin, which eventually causes blood glucose levels to decrease. Liver cells convert more glucose to glycogen. The pancreas releases glucagon, which eventually causes blood glucose levels to increase.
The pancreas releases glucagon, which eventually causes blood glucose levels to increase
When blood glucose levels are high The liver releases insulin. The pancreas releases glucose. The pancreas releases insulin. The pancreas releases glucagon. The liver releases glucagon.
The pancreas releases insulin
When blood levels of glucose, amino acids, and insulin are high, and glycogenesis is occurring in the liver, the body is in the postabsorptive state. absorptive state. bulimic state. stress state. fasted state.

Gluconeogenesis refers to converting glucose to glycogen storage. creating glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors. converting glucose to storage as adipose tissue. removing glucose from storage as glycogen. removing fatty acids from adipose storage.
creating glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors
Both insulin and glucagon are peptide hormones that target liver cells. The responses of the target cells to these two hormones are the opposite of each other. This information implies that both hormones interact with receptors at the cell nucleus. each of the two hormones uses a different second messenger. one of the hormones does not interact with a membrane receptor. one hormone binds to a receptor on the cell membrane and the other to an intracellular receptor.
each of the two hormones uses a different second messenger
