KROK 1 2015 – Question 89 · KROK (Medicine) · Biological Chemistry

When blood circulation in the damaged tissue is restored, lactate accumulation stops and glucose consumption decelerates. These metabolic changes are caused by activation of the following process:

  1. A. Aerobic glycolysis
  2. B. Glycogen biosynthesis
  3. C. Gluconeogenesis
  4. D. Lipolysis
  5. E. Anaerobic glycolysis
Hint

Ask what returns to the tissue when circulation is restored, and how that changes the fate of pyruvate and the ATP gained per glucose molecule.
