Problema 5
Which statement correctly describes adipocyte hypertrophy and hyperplasia in fat storage?
A
Adipocytes can enlarge (hypertrophy) to store more triglyceride and new adipocytes can form (hyperplasia), enabling large increases in total fat storage.
B
Hyperplasia refers to shrinkage of adipocytes while hypertrophy describes formation of new adipocytes from bone marrow cells which is unrelated to fat storage.
C
Adipocytes store glycogen primarily, and their capacity is more limited than liver because they cannot expand in size to accommodate extra carbohydrate-derived energy.
D
Adipocytes only shrink and cannot increase in number or size after adolescence, so body fat always remains limited and strictly regulated by carbohydrate intake.
