Jamal ate a rice meal before seeing his doctor. Rice is mainly made of starch molecules. Jamal has been feeling tired, so his doctor did a test that found Jamal's cells contained normal levels of oxygen and low levels of glucose. Does this explain why Jamal has been feeling tired?

• a. Yes, Jamal's respiratory system is functioning, but his digestive system is not converting oxygen into glucose.

• b. Yes, Jamal's respiratory system is functioning, but his digestive system is not breaking down the starch molecules into glucose for his cells

• c. Yes, Jamal's digestive system is functioning, but his respiratory system has too much oxygen, so his body stopped producing energy

• d. No, something else must be wrong with Jamal because his cells have all the molecules they need.

Asthma is a condition in which it can be very difficult for a person to breathe enough. Would it also be difficult for someone with asthma to exercise?

• a. No, as long as the person is getting enough sleep, they will generate enough energy to exercise.

• b. No, as long as the person's cells are receiving different types of molecules from food, they can still exercise.

• c. No, it is possible that the person's cells may not have everything they need, but their body can still exercise normally.

• d. Yes, it will be difficult for a person with asthma to exercise because their cells need molecules from the air.
