There are two main types of venom produced by snakes‚ containing primarily either: *Neurotoxins - these attack the nervous system. *Hemotoxins - these attack the circulatory system. While most snakes’ venom contains

It involves three steps‚ 1) glycolysis‚ 2) the citric acid or Krebs cycle and 3) electron transport system. The glycolytic pathway or glycolysis is a metabolic process that leads to the formation of the energy source adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the body. ATP is essential to the cell and the cellular processes used by the cell. The first step‚ glycolysis is the process

I have studied a variety of subjects such as animal biology‚ genetics‚ comparative vertebrate anatomy‚ immunology‚ plant biology‚ biochemistry‚ and animal behavior. I have been challenged in new ways to think‚ when I fail I seek to find new approaches to solutions and remain persistent. Biochemistry was a very difficult course‚ with may cycles and chemical processes that are very precise and intricate. By repeated drawing of each step I was able to remember and
