KROK 1 2016 – Question 113 · 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:
- A. Lipolysis
- B. Anaerobic glycolysis
- C. Gluconeogenesis
- D. Aerobic glycolysis
- E. Glycogen biosynthesis
Hint
Think about what the returning blood flow gives back to the cells and how that changes the fate of pyruvate and the ATP yield per glucose molecule.
The answer, the explanation and a note on every option are available once you log in. The account is free: topic tests, a mock exam, mistake review and statistics.
