Question #11
Where is sucrase found in the human body?
A.   On the microvilli of the small intestine
B.   On the gastric surface
C.   In the pancreas
D.   In the liver
Question #12
The function of sucrase is to ________.
A.   break sucrose into hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon atoms
B.   form a disaccharide from a monosaccharide
C.   break sucrose into glucose and fructose
D.   join glucose and fructose together to form sucrose
Question #13
How does sucrose change the configuration of sucrase?
A.   Sucrase binds to its active site on the sucrose molecule, causing it to denature.
B.   Sucrose binds to its active site on sucrase, changing the shape of sucrase enzyme.

A.   heart attack
B.   renal disease
C.   jaundice
Question #18
Prostate cancer can lead to difficult with urination due to ________.

B.   PSA
C.   AST
D.   CK
Question #20
Coenzymes NAD and FAD are found in the vitamins niacin and riboflavin. Why is it that excess amounts of these vitamins are removed from the body in the urine?
A.   Because they are fat-soluble and the body is able to store them, which creates more urine.
B.   They are water-soluble vitamins and therefore not stored in the body.
C.   They increase the energy levels in the body and become toxic waste so the body has to remove them in the urine.
D.   They speed up the metabolic reactions in the body therefore creating more urine.
