Cholesterol synthesis occurs via mevalonate pathway, and it requires large amounts of energy [14,15]. The newly synthesized cholesterol is transported to its destination, mainly to the plasma membrane, but also in a smaller extent to other cellular membranes [9]. 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzy...
Why do humans crave fatty foods? Discuss the events that take place with glucose levels and insulin secretion after eating a meal and during exercise. Why might low blood sugar levels occur? Why are whole grains better for you than refined grains? Give examples of some whole grains and some...
Second trimester:Iron supplements or prenatal vitamins, which have more iron than the typical multivitamin, can cause green poop throughout pregnancy. Third trimester:Green stool may occur more frequently as your due date approaches. This is because food often moves through the intestines faster in ...
How does the enzyme SpoT influence the starvation response in bacteria? Why are enzymes important to humans? a. because they are proteins b. because they can evade the laws of thermodynamics c. because they allow reactions to occur at body temperature Describe the catalase test and state the ...
(Sometimes described as a battery that makes energy for the body found in DNA) Damaged mitochondria do not make ATP, and when a cell does not make ATP, it cannot repair the damage it suffers. The nerves in the body continuously are bombarded by harmful substances (free radicals) that ...
So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that someone who does all of these things is generally healthier than the average Joe who eats a standard American diet high in processed foods and added sugars, and who doesn’t exercise regularly or exhibit any otherhealthy lifestyle choices. ...
as would normally occur. Two of the hallmarks of aging skin are reduced thickness and keratinocyte destruction. Green tea reversed both of these markers of skin aging. The researchers concluded, “This study demonstrates that EGCG promotes keratinocyte survival and inhibits the UV-induced [cell death...
(a) Because lipoamide (or lipoic acid) is not stable when not bound to an enzyme. (b) Because thiamin pyrophosphate itself lacks the deltaG to decarb Why does the Krebs cycle occur in aerobic cellular respiration? Why can't adipocytes use glycerol in fatty acid synthesis? Why does ...
What is an amino acid in simple terms? Show the structures of the following amino acids in their zwitterionic forms: (a) Cys (b) His Show the structures of the following amino acids in their zwitterionic forms: (a) Trp (b) Ile Give three examples of polymers that ...
