Energy Production and Metabolism — Flashcards

When insulin acts on muscle tissue, it causes _____ glycogen storage and increased protein synthesis

O2 is converted to _____ by the enzyme NADPH oxidase (oxidative burst)

_____ may inhibit the ETC by binding Fe2+, preventing transfer of electrons to O2 in complex IV

Ketone bodies are primarily used for energy in the _____ (starvation state), muscle, and kidney

In complex _____, Fe3+ accepts electrons, forming Fe2+, which then donates the electrons to oxygen (forming H2O)

In the ETC, protons travel down their gradient through the _____ pump, generating ATP and heat

Aerobic metabolism of glucose produces _____ net ATP via the malate-aspartate shuttle (heart and liver)

_____ in brown fat may act as an uncoupling agent of oxidative phosphorylation

The main sources of energy in a fed state are _____ and aerobic respiration

Destruction of phagocytosed material occurs through _____, which utilizes O2 as a substrate
