Type 1 diabetes who are not being treated..

blood sugar remain high for several hours after eating a meal because their pancreas does not make and release insulin.

after eating a large meal (pasta)

blood sugar rises and the pancreas releases insulin in an attempt to shuttle blood sugar into your cells.

gestational diabetes, increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes after giving birth

Diabetes mellitus (diabetes)

group of diseases characterized by abnormal glucose, fat and protein metabolism.

Which of the following substances is a disaccharide?

maltose

Proteins roles in the body...

needed to make body components maintains fluid balance needed to make certain hormones contributes to immune function promotes satiety

Nonnutritive Sweetener

supply no energy per serving Examples: aspartame, saccharin, acesulfame-K, neotame, sucralose, and stevia leaf extracts

Which of the following foods is the best source of EPA and DHA?

what controls the assembly of amino acids into protein in cells?

DNA

Drinking during pregnancy can lead to what and what are signs?

FAS a sign is a thin upper lip in the baby

Which of the following foods generally provides the least amount of protein per serving?

Fruits

Triglyceride digestion in order

Large fat droplets enter the small intestine after a meal Bile slats emulsify fats into smaller particles Lipase breaks down fat into fatty acids and monoglycerides Bile salts surround the fatty acids and monoglycerides to form a micelle Micelles help transport monoglycerides and fatty acids into the absorptive cells of the small intestine. The monoglycerides and fatty aicds are reformed into Triglycerides

Which of the following foods is a source of complementary protein?

Mashed chickpeas spread on pita bread

Rich sources of saturated fat..

Meat butter

Which of the following statements is false?

Proteins are part of triglycerides.

Large intestine

Some soluble fiber is fermented by bacteria. The bacteria in this organ ferment some of the crackers soluble fiber.

Type 2 Diabetes signs..

Sores on feet not healing Thirstier in the past Frequent trips to bathroom to urinate Blood sugar remains high after meals because cells do not respond to insulin.

Type 2 diabetes is...

often associated with excess body weight

Rich sources of monounsaturated fat...

olive oil peanut oil

Rectum

Very little carbohydrate form the cracker remains by the time food reaches this part of the digestive tract. Very little dietary carbohydrate is excreted in feces.

Stomach

When the cracker reaches this organ, the digestion of the cracker's starch stops. Activity of salivary amylase stops in the acidic environment here.

Trans fatty acids are...

a by-product of the hydrogenation process

Emulsifier

a compound that can suspend fat in water example: egg yolks contains the phospholipid lecithin mayonnaise

Synthesis of a specific protein is the end product of a number of intermediate steps (in order)

a gene is transcribed, producing messenger RNA Messanger RNA moves from the nucleus to the cytoplasm of the cell. Messenger RNA travels to the ribosomes where the mRNA code is translated to produce a specific protein. During translation, ribosomes and tRNA link amino acids together to produce a polypeptide chain. The polypeptide chain twists and folds into three-dimensional structure of the protein coded for by the gene.

Glucose regulation

a number of hormones play an important role in this.

Nutritive Sweeters

add energy to foods and beverages Examples: Sugar, Fructose, Sorbitol, Dextrose, and Corn Syrup

Fats in foods...

add taste and contribute to mouth feel

Insulin (Chapter 5)

allows cells to take in glucose.

Phospholipids

are partially water-solube

Proteins or amino acids

are the building blocks

heart raising...

body releases epinephrine, which increases glycogen breakdown in the liver and raises your blood sugar.

Which of the following tips is a recommended way to reduce food costs?

buying food in bulk, if it can be used before spoiling

Carbon skeleton

can be converted to glucose and used for energy, important component of an amino acid because the body can convert this to glucose and use the simple sugar for energy

Excess dietary protein and amino acids...

can be used for energy

Good source of omega-3 fatty acids...

canned salmon

Which of the following statements is true?

certain fish are rich sources of omega-3 fatty acids

The body converts some of the monosaccharide...

glucose into fat, but much of the excess is burned for energy.

Which of the following signs is associated with metabolic syndrome?

high fasting blood glucose

plant foods are

high in fiber and contain no cholesterol or trans fat and little saturated fat.

Insulin..

is the hormone that enables glucose to enter cells

Deamination

is the process of removing nitrogen from an amino acid.

Incomplete protein

lacks adequate amounts of one or more of the essential amino acids

Fat digestion in order

minor digestion of fat in stomach through the action of a lipase in saliva. liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released through the bile duct into the small intestine. Small intestine is the primary site for digestion and absorption of lipids. 5% of ingested fat is normally excreted in the feces

Small intestine

most carbohydrate absorption occurs here. The starch in the cracker is digested and its component monosaccharides are absorbed in this organ.

A saturated fatty acid has...

no double bounds with the hydrocarbon chain
