The following options are attached to the above question:

A. Metabolism

B. Absorption

C. Oxidation

D. Excretion


ANSWER

The correct option is C.

Biological oxidation of alcohol is the process by which the liver handles the presence of alcohol in the body system. The liver is responsible for metabolizing the alcohol that are present in the body. The metabolism of alcohol occurs in two steps; the first step is the oxidation of alcohol to ethanal or acetaldehyde. This product is very toxic to the human body and is majorly responsible for the symptoms of hangover that drinkers usually experience. The liver oxidises ethanal to acetic acid as quickly as possible in order to prevent damage to the body system.

Yanka [14]

Growth Hormone and insulin are protein hormones that promotes the growth and regulation of substrate metabolism.

Explanation:

The Growth Hormone performs the metabolic actions in various tissues like liver, muscle, and pancreas through insulin growth factor. Insulin slows down the growth hormone signalling through the growth hormone receptor. It is important for maintaining the responsiveness of liver to growth hormone.

The insulin signalling pathway is very important in metabolic diseases like diabetes and aging. These insulin activates a phosphorylation cascade that branches to form a network affecting multiple biological processes.
