2) Which one of the following compounds is required for acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl

CoA)to enter the citric acid cycle? (a) Isocitrate (b) Malate (b) Oxaloacetate (d) Pyruvate 3) Linkage present in cellulose molecule is (a) b (1 4) (b) a ( 1 4) (b) a (1 6) (d) both (b)and (c) 4) The largest energy reserve (in terms of kilocalories) in humans is: (a) liver glycogen (b) muscle glycogen (b) adipose tissue triacylglycerol. (d) muscle protein. 5) All the following compounds are Intermediate of the citric acid cycle except (a) Isocitrate (b) Malate (b) Pyruvate (d) Succinate 6) Starch digestion is more efficient after heating the starch with water because heating: (a) hydrates the starch granules, making them more susceptible to pancreatic amylase. (b) partly hydrolyses a-1, 6 links. (c) converts the linear amylose to branched amylopectin, which resembles glycogen. (d) inactivates amylase inhibitors, which are common in the tissues of starchy plants. 7) Cellulose is a _____ made of many _____. (a) polypeptide . . . monomers (b) carbohydrate . . . fatty acids (c) polymer . . . glucose molecules (d) protein . . . amino acids 8) How cellulose and starch are different (a) Cellulose molecules are much too large. (b) Starch is made of glucose; cellulose is made of other sugars. (c) The bonds between sugars in cellulose are much stronger. (d) The sugars in cellulose bond together differently than in starch, giving cellulose a different shape. 9) In glycolysis ATP synthesis is catalyzed by: (a) hexokinase. (b) 6-phosphofructo-I-kinase. (c) glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. (d) phosphoglycerate kinase.

10) The irreversible reactions of glycolysis include that catalyzed by: (a) phosphoglucose isomerase. (b) 6-phosphofructo-l-kinase. (c) fructose bisphosphate aldolase. (d) glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. 11) Glucokinase: (a) has a Km considerably greater than the normal blood glucose concentration. (b) is inhibited by glucose 6-phosphate. (c) is also known as the GLUT-2 protein. (d) has glucose 6-phosphatase activity as well as kinase activity. 12) In the Cori cycle: (a) only tissues with aerobic metabolism (i.e., mitochondrial O2) are involved. (b) a three-carbon compound arising from glycolysis is converted to glucose at the expense of energy from fatty acid oxidation. (c) glucose is converted to lactate in anaerobic tissues this lactate returns to the liver, where it is converted into glucose. (d) the same amount of ATP is used in the liver to synthesis glucose as it is released during glycolysis, leading to no net loss on whole-body energy balance. 13) Gluconeogenic enzymes include all of the following EXCEPT (a) glucose 6-phosphatase.

(c) always contain sulfate. (d) exist in only two forms. 15) All of the following statements about acetyl-CoA carboxylase are correct EXCEPT: (a) it undergoes protomer-polymer interconversion during its physiological regulation. (b) it is inhibited by cAMP-mediated phosphorylation. (c) it is activated by both palmitoyl CoA and citrate. (d) its content in a cell responds to changes in fat content in the diet. 16) The reduction of pyruvate to lactic acid during fermentation allows glycolysis to continue in the absence of oxygen. Why? (a) Water is formed during this reaction (b) This reaction is a kinase reaction (c) This reaction is coupled to the oxidation of NADH to NAD+ (d) This reaction is coupled to the reduction of NAD+ to NADH 17) Acetyl CoA enters the TCA cycle by combining with: (a) oxaloacetate.
