Explanation / Answer

Ans. g.

Acetyl CoA is the molecule that enters Krebs cycle. It is used to synthesis of fatty acids, ketone bodies and CHOLESTEROL.

Ans. h.

INSULIN is the primary hormone regulating metabolism during the absorptive state. The major risk of the POST ABSORPTIVE state is to maintain the normal blood glucose level.

Ans. i.

The metabolic rate observed when a fasting individual is resting but awake and is experiencing comfortable condition is called the BASAL METABOLIC RATE. Peripheral VASODILATION allows increased blood flow to the superficial tissues of the body to release excess heat.

Ans. 8.

The pressures involved here are blood pressure and hydrostatic pressure.

Glomerulus filtration occurs due to pressure gradient at Glomerulus. Increased blood pressure at Glomerulus leads to increase Glomerular Filteration Rate (GFR). The blood pressure at Glomerulus is counteracted by hydrostatic pressure of fluid in the Bowman's space. More fiterate at Bowman's space increases the hydrostatic pressure which then decreases the GFR.

Beer contains 5 to 8% of alcohol approximately. The alcohol in beer inhibits anti diuretic hormone (ADH) secretion. Normally secretion of ADH in urinary system prevents diuresis or Excessive Urinations by influencing reabsorption of water from the renal tubules. So when ADH gets inhibited under the influence of alcohol, it causes diuresis or excessive urination because reabsorption of water does not takes place which leads to dehydration. This further leads to decrease blood volume and decrease blood pressure in body and also decreased blood pressure at Glomerulus which can cause decrease GFR at Glomerulus.
