PROTEINS: WILLIAMS' BASIC
NUTRITION & DIET THERAPY -
CHAPTER 4 BASIC TEST WITH ALL
SOLUTIONS
indispensable amino acids - correct answers-the nine amino acids that must be
obtained from the diet because the body does not make adequate amounts to
support body needs
dispensable amino acids - correct answers-the five amino acids that the body can
synthesize from other amino acids that are supplied through the diet and thus do not
have to be consumed on a daily basis
conditionally indispensable amino acids - correct answers-the six amino acids that
are normally considered dispensable amino acids because the body can make them;
however, under certain circumstances (e.g., illness), the body cannot make them in
high enough quantities, and they become indispensable (cannot do without) in the
diet
catabolism - correct answers-the metabolic process of breaking down large
substances to yield smaller building blocks
anabolism - correct answers-the metabolic process of building large substances from
smaller parts; the opposite of catabolism
deamination - correct answers-the removal of the nitrogen-containing part (amino
group) from an amino acid
osmotic pressure - correct answers-the pressure that is produced as a result of
osmosis across a semipermeable membrane
proenzyme - correct answers-an inactive precursor (i.e., a forerunner substance from
which another substance is made) that is converted to the active enzyme by the
action of an
acid, another enzyme, or other means
zymogen - correct answers-an inactive enzyme precursor
pepsin - correct answers-the main gastric enzyme specific for proteins; pepsin
begins breaking large protein molecules into shorter chain polypeptides, and it is
activated by gastric hydrochloric acid
rennin - correct answers-the milk-curdling enzyme of the gastric juice of human
infants and young animals (e.g., calves); rennin should not be confused with renin,

which is an important enzyme produced by the kidneys that plays a vital role in the activation of angiotensin trypsin - correct answers-a protein-splitting enzyme secreted as the inactive proenzyme trypsinogen by the pancreas and that is activated and works in the small intestine to reduce proteins to shorter-chain polypeptides and dipeptides enterokinase - correct answers-an enzyme produced and secreted in the duodenum in response to food entering the small intestine; it activates trypsinogen to its active form of trypsin chymotrypsin - correct answers-a protein-splitting enzyme secreted as the inactive zymogen chymotrypsinogen by the pancreas; after it has been activated by trypsin, it acts in the small intestine to continue breaking down proteins into shorter-chain polypeptides and dipeptides carboxypeptidase - correct answers-a specific protein-splitting enzyme secreted as the inactive zymogen procarboxypeptidase by the pancreas; after it has been activated by trypsin, it acts in the small intestine to break off the acid (i.e., carboxyl) end of the peptide chain, thereby producing smaller-chained peptides and free amino acids aminopeptidase - correct answers-e a specific protein-splitting enzyme secreted by glands in the walls of the small intestine that breaks off the nitrogen-containing amino end (i.e., NH2) of the peptide chain, thereby producing smaller chained peptides and free amino acids dipeptidase - correct answers-the final enzyme in the protein-splitting system that releases free amino acids from dipeptide bonds
