Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

.
Food Utilization   •Efficiency (25%) •Processing of new food (8%) •Basal metabolism (55%) •Active behavior (12-13%)   Futility of Dieting: Basal metabolism decreases, but body weight does not  
🗑
Carbohydrates   •sugars, starches, celluloses, gums •Main source of energy = glucose (simple carbo) •Converted to and from glycogen (complex carbo)   Pancreas Hormone Liver Beta cells -> Insulin -> glucose stored as glyocogen Alpha cells -> Glucagon -> glucose converted from glycogen  
🗑
Glucose Pathway   Liver glucodetectors signal Pancreas (via vagus and NST ) To increase insulin Glucose transporters + insulin -> glucose in cells   Liver (via vagus) -> NST < -> HTNST -> pancreas  
🗑
Stored Glucose   •Main source of energy = glucose (simple carbo) •Converted to and from glycogen (complex carbo) •Carboscan be stored inlongtermform as fats -Can be used as ketonesor fatty acids later -Brain needs glucose (but not insulin)    
🗑
Food Intake Phases   •cephalic phase •digestive phase •absorptive phase    
🗑
Diabetes Mellitus   •Type I vs Type II •Possible causes •Health implications •Hunger    
🗑
Satiety Signal Condidates   •insulin -no •glucose -no •gut distension -small contribution maybe •gut peptides-yes but not the only signal    
🗑
CCK: Cholecystokinin   •Gut peptide-duodenum. •Released especially if high fat/protein foods eaten. •Also made and released by brain neurons. •Rat and human studies.    
🗑
Neuropeptide   •NPY fromarcuateto PVN-seems to stimulate feeding. •Orexins-from lateral hypothalamus, stimulate feeding. •leptinstimulates release of CRH,melanocortin, andneurotensin.    
🗑
Old Theory: Dual Center   •VMH initially felt to be a satiety center (lesions=weight gain) BUT: new higher set point is defended, and satiety occurrs ALSO: Lesions may have damaged fibers of passage from PVN. Rats appear more finicky-lose weight if food is made bitter.   •LH initially thought to be a hunger center (lesions = weight loss) BUT: New lower set point is defended; and hunger occurs. ALSO: Drinking affected as well as feeding. •Similar effects are seen in humans with hypothalamic lesions.  
🗑
LEPTIN MODEL   1. fat cells secrete leptin. (the larger the fat cells, the more leptin is secreted) 2. Leptin reaches leptin receptors in hypothalamic regions (LH, arcuate, supraoptic, paraventricular nuclei)   3. Leptin receptor activation suppresses neuropepetide production and release (which normally trigger hunger) 4. Receptor activation also increases levels of hunger suppressing CRH, and melanocortin

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
