whereas the movement of other solutes is passive, which does not require energy. Active transport allows cells to move a specific substance against its concentration gradient through a membrane protein, requiring energy in the form of ATP. For example, the sodium-potassium...
How is ATP critically important to cellular chemical processes? What is the role of ATP in coupling the cells in anabolic and catabolic processes? Explain which forms of transport require energy and why, and how ATP facilitates energy-dependent transport. ATP plays a ...
Cells of the body require nutrients in order to function. These nutrients are obtained through feeding. In order to manage nutrient intake, storing excess intake, and utilizing reserves when necessary, the body uses hormones to moderate energy stores. Insulin is produced by the beta cells of the...
Which processes produce ATP? Which ones require enzymes? Which one in prokaryotes and eukaryotes? Which one occurs in mitochondria, cytosol. or chloroplast? Which of these structures is the location of cellular respiration and produces ATP for the cell? a. large central vacuole b. cyto...
andCPEB2) and the response to corticosteroids (e.g.,NR4A3,IGF1R,andFOS) (Fig.3e). However, tissue-shared DEGs from the other three comparisons mostly participated in energy metabolism, such as mitochondrial organization (e.g.,NDUFAF8,ROMO1,andUQCC2) and ATP metabolic processes (e.g.,...
Both surveillance and protective roles require microglial contact movement, a key action of both roles. This dynamic process is affected by the surrounding environment [25]. Professor Tominaga’s group, for the first time, discovered that microglial movement is temperature dependent [26]. This ...
C)During the process of “burning” ATP, your muscles need three things: They need oxygen, because chemical reactions require ATP and oxygen is consumed to produce ATP. They need to eliminate metabolic wastes (carbon dioxide, lactic acid) that the chem...

2 processes are responsible for the passive movement of fluid across membranes: Diffusion : A substance passes from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis: Water is drawn across a membrane toward a region where there is a higher solute concentration. Measuremen...
All neurons comprise a cell body (perikaryon) and cytoplasmic processes, one axon and usually many dendrites (Fig. 20.8). Exceptions occur, for instance, the cells of the dorsal root ganglia have a single process that sends one long process into the spinal cord and another to the periphery....
