Answer to Question 1

Ans:
B

Feedback:

Stored ATP, creatine phosphate, and muscle glycogen are among the first energy sources utilized during aerobic exercise. Amino acids, fatty acids, and glucose are utilized after prolonged periods of exercise.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
B

Feedback:

PGE2 is the protein that exerts control on the hypothalamus and induces fever. Exogenous pyrogens induce host cells to produce endogenous pyrogens, and Kupffer cells produce PGE2. Cytokines do not act directly in the hypothalamus.
