Define vmax. How is vmax related to kcat?
A 25 year old male athlete who weighs 75 kg and is 178 cm tall consumes 3200 kcal's/day. His daily physical activity level would be considered heavy.
Based on this information, what is his predicted daily energy expenditure? With his current diet and activity level, is he in positive, negative, or neutral energy balance?
Define basal metabolic rate and discuss factors that can decrease or increase it.

- The hormones insulin and glucagon play an important role in the regulation of plasma glucose. b) People with Type II diabetes mellitus can manage their condition (maintain adequate glycaemic control) through use of oral hypoglycaemic drugs. Provide a rationale for how two hypoglycaemic drugs, with different mechanisms of action, can both work to lower blood glucose levels in Type II diabetes.arrow_forwardNormally, when blood glucose level increases (e.g. after a meal), the islet cells in the pancreas secrete insulin. When insulin molecules bind to insulin receptors on the surface of a muscle cell, the receptors become activated, initiating a signaling pathway which eventually results in the increase in the number of passive glucose transporter on the muscle cell surface thus increases the uptake of glucose into the cell and decrease blood glucose level. Indicate whether the following conditions/practice will likely lead to diabetes (mark Yes or No).
