| 21. | Elevated levels of ammonia, glycine, and ketone bodies may also be present in the blood and urine.
|
| 22. | The ketone bodies are possibly anticonvulsant in themselves; in animal models, acetoacetate and acetone protect against seizures.
|
| 23. | This is important because succinyl CoA is an intermediate necessary for porphyrin, heme, and ketone body biosynthesis.
|
| 24. | These NH 3 molecules neutralise the organic acids ( lactic acid and ketone bodies ) produced in the muscles.
|
| 25. | Ketone bodies have a characteristic smell, which can easily be detected in the breath of persons in ketosis and ketoacidosis.
|
| 26. | Acetyl CoA ( acetyl co-enzyme A ) will also build up, leading to the creation of ketone bodies.
|
| 27. | In diabetic ketoacidosis, a high concentration of ketone bodies is usually accompanied by insulin deficiency, hyperglycemia, and dehydration.
|
| 28. | Ketone bodies that commonly appear in the urine when fats are burned for energy are acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyric acid.
|
| 29. | "beta "-hydroxybutyrate's concentration, as with other ketone bodies, is raised in ketosis.
|
| 30. | Ketone body production increases significantly when the rate of glucose metabolism is insufficient in meeting the body's energy needs.
