A 22-year-old woman engaging in a political protest goes on a hunger strike on a prominent corner in a city park. She refuses all offers of food except for water through the first 2 weeks. Under these conditions there is a decreased reliance on which of the following pathways for fuel?a. β-oxidationb. Lipolysisc. Ketogenesisd. Gluconeogenesis

β-oxidation and gluconeogenesis

Explanation:

This 22-year-old woman, by not eating her food for a long time, entered a period of prolonged fasting.

Which there are no glycogen reserves, since they were depleted and neither were glucose assimilations by the cells because the person only ingested water.

Prolonged fasting is extremely dangerous because fatty tissues are degraded resulting in ketone bodies that are considered toxic and cross the blood-brain barrier.

Once the fat tissue reserve is completely finished, the body will enter into proteolysis of the body's own structural proteins in order to obtain energy, this is how the phenomenon of abrupt consumption of muscle tissue occurs.

answer; ///i believe that the correct answer is (a) specialized cells)

the answer would be 2, if crossing over doesn’t occur 2 out of 4 of the daughter cells will have that allele.

hope this : )
