Doctors tested a patient to find out what molecules were in her cells. Her cells contained normal levels of amino acids, normal levels of oxygen molecules, and low levels of glucose molecules. Will this patient be able to exercise normally?
A Yes, her cells just need to combine amino acids to release energy.
B No, her cells need to combine glucose into starch molecules to release energy.
C No, her cells need glucose to react with oxygen to release energy.
D Yes, her cells just need oxygen to release energy.
A patient has been eating healthy foods, but his digestive system is not doing what it usually does. Can this patient still exercise normally?
A Yes, as long as he can still breathe, his cells will have all the molecules they need to release energy.
B No, his digestive system is not breaking down oxygen into molecules small enough to get inside his cells.
C No, molecules from food are not combining together to be large enough for his cells to use.
D No, molecules from food are not getting broken down small enough to get inside his cells.
Cells need these molecules to be able to make energy effectively. Choose all the are needed.
Amino acids
Oxygen
Glucose
sucrose
Why would it be a problem for your cells to make energy if your digestive system isn't working properly?
Cells need to breathe.
The molecules will not be broken down small enough to enter the cells.
The amino acids would get lost.
There would be oxygen loss.
Even if your oxygen and amino acids are at normal levels, what else do your cells need to make energy?
starch molecules
atoms
protein molecules
glucose molecules
True or False. Cells need oxygen molecules and glucose molecules to react to make energy?
True.
False.
