5.After 12-24 hrs starvation, what will not happen?

 

       A. Increase free fatty acid

      B. increase ketone bodies.

     C. decreased glycogen

     D. decreased serum protiens.

Table 16–2. Plasma Concentrations of Metabolic Fuels (mmol/L) in the Fed and Fasting States

Fed 40 Hours Fasting 7 Days Starvation Glucose 5.5 3.6 3.5 Free fatty acids 0.30 1.15 1.19 Ketone bodies Negligible 2.9 4.5

By 12-24 hours the glycogen store is depleted ,So no point of decrease in glycogen after 24 hours.Eventhough I could not find decrease in serum  Protein it is obvious that plasma protein synthesis decrease in starvation.
