Once a candidate has commenced the CHA certification examination online, he or she must complete the forty (40) question examination in one sitting within the sixty (60) minute time frame. The passing score is seventy-five percent (75%) or better.
Glucagon is produced by the alpha cells in the islets, and is released by the pancreas when blood glucose is low. It stimulates the breakdown of stored glycogen to glucose, which is then released into the bloodstream. ------------------------------------------------------ To sum up the above answer, Glucose is converted to Glycogen by the hormone Glucagon.
In glycogen breakdown, phosphorylase kinase phosphorylates GPb to the more active form, GPa. In glycogen synthesis, phosphorylase kinase phosphorylates the active form of Glycogen Synthase (GSa), and converts it into the usually inactive b form (called GSb).he anabolic pathway contrasting with glycogen breakdown is that of glycogen synthesis. Just as cells reciprocally regulate glycolysis and gluconeogenesis to prevent a futile cycle, so too do cells use reciprocal schemes to regulate glycogen breakdown and synthesis.
