The graph represents data collected by researchers interested in observing how diet affects cell metabolism.In the investigation, mice were grouped into control (C) and experimental (E) groups according to diet.
Control mice were fed normal mouse chow that has a mix of carbohydrate, protein, and fat.Experimental mice were fed chow made up of equal parts of protein and fat, with very little carbohydrate.After 8 weeks, samples of liver tissue were analyzed in various ways.In one assay, the expression of mRNA transcripts of the gene for fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBP mRNA) was quantified.FBP is important in the gluconeogenesis pathway and catalyzes the conversion of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate.The graph represents the results of this analysis.Explain what the data indicate about metabolic regulation in the liver when intake of carbohydrates is very low.
