Lipids and proteins are both types of what? What is adenosine triphosphate metabolism? Actin and myosin are what type of molecule? Which is the smallest molecule? a. cellulose b. glucose c. glycogen d. starch e. polysaccharide What catabolic process produces monosaccharides? Which process (a) ...
How can you tell if a molecule is a carbohydrate? Carbohydrates and fats both do what? Carbohydrates provide the body with what? What is the principle carbohydrate of milk? What are the different types of carbohydrates? What are the subunits called that make up carbohydrates?
Another name for this type of molecule is polysaccharide. Simple carbohydrates are smaller. A simple carb is made of just one or two sugar molecules. These are also known as monosaccharides and disaccharides. The three monosaccharides found in food are glucose, fructose, and galactose. They ...
This is because dextrose only has one molecule, so there’s no chain for the body to break down. Longer chain molecules, such as proteins, take longer to be broken down by the body and as a result, don’t cause the blood sugar to spike in the way that single molecules like dextrose ...
So what does sugar have to do with glycolysis? Sugar is an extremely generalized name for glucose, the type of molecule that's required to start the glycolysis pathway. The Stages in Glycolysis Lesson Summary Register to view this lesson Are you a student or a teacher? I am a student I ...
Functions of Carbohydrates in the Body Carbohydrates Provide Immediate Energy When carbohydrates are absorbed as monosaccharides (glucose), this glucose is taken into your cells and produces a fuel molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Your cells can then use ATP to fuel a myriad of metabolic...
In the absence of insulin, blood sugar levels rise because muscle and fat cells aren't able to utilize glucose for energy. They signal the body that they're "hungry." The liver then releases glycogen, a form of stored glucose. This further increases the blood sugar level. When the blood...
, while osteoclasts can interact with integrin avβ3 on the surface of OPN and adhere to bone tissue, thereby exerting an osteolytic effect [21]. OPN is a downstream signaling molecule activated by RANKL/NF-κB receptors, and the reduction of OPN secretion can trigger the reduction of bone ...
What is the monomer that makes up starch? a. maltose b. glucose c. galactose d. fructose What is a monomer for starch and glycogen? An enzyme is a kind of which molecule? a) Protein b) Lipid c) Carbohydrate d) Amino Acid What type of chemical bond is responsible for the...
What is the most common monosaccharide? What is the chemical formula? Why is this monosaccharide so important to our daily functioning (what is its role in the formation of what energy molecule)? Which of the following molecules is not a polysaccharide? a. Starch b. cellulose...
