glycolysis. *Main Points in the pentose phosphate pathway (S. 72) G-6-P shunted to PPP PPP leads to production of NADPH and Ribose sugar (ribose 5-phosphate ) NADPH is utilized in many biosynthetic pathway (ex. Synthesis of UFA’s‚ cholesterol‚ Amino Acids and Ribose Reduction in the objective of making ribose sugar). In plant systems is used in photosynthesis. Ribose sugar serves as a sugarmoeties in RNA if reduced is made to Deoxyribose RBCs utilize PPP for retaining the Hemoglobin molecule in the

What is metabolism? All living things must have an unceasing supply of energy and matter. The transformation of this energy and matter within the body is called metabolism. Metabolism includes two different types: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism is destructive metabolism. Typically‚ in catabolism‚ larger organic molecules are broken down into smaller constituents. This usually occurs with the release of energy. Anabolism is constructive metabolism. Typically‚ in anabolism‚ small precursor

AS Biology - Unit 1 ------------------------------------------------- Metabolism Metabolism is a term to describe all reaction which is taking place within a cell and is separated into two types which are * anabolic = compounds being built up * catabolic = compounds being broken down ------------------------------------------------- Water The water molecule is a molecule which is made up from 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. It is bounded by 2 covalent bonds and has is polar.

dilutions of yeast cell suspension on the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under microscope. Aim To investigate the effect of the different dilutions of yeast cell suspension on the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under microscope. Research Question Do the different dilutions of yeast cell suspension affect the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under the microscope? Introduction “The typical yeast cell

muscle metabolism Skeletal muscle is the major tissue responsible for glutamine synthesis in the body [9‚10]. In this context‚ glutamine anabolic effects in the skeletal muscle not only preserve lean mass‚ but also maintain plasma glutamine concentration in the body. Glutamine provides energy substrate to cells with a high turnover‚ nucleic acid precursors to cells of the immune system and is involved in the maintenance of acid-base balance [9‚ 11‚ 12]. The key enzymes in the metabolism of glutamine

Microbial metabolism is the means by which a microbe obtains the energy and nutrients (e.g. carbon) it needs to live and reproduce. Microbes use many different types of metabolic strategies and species can often be differentiated from each other based on metabolic characteristics. The specific metabolic properties of a microbe are the major factors in determining that microbe’s ecological niche‚ and often allow for that microbe to be useful in industrial processes or responsible for biogeochemical

organisms to grow and reproduce‚ maintain their structures‚ and respond to their environments. The word metabolism can also refer to all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms‚ including digestion and the transport of substances into and between different cells‚ in which case the set of reactions within the cells is called intermediary metabolism or intermediate metabolism. Metabolism is usually divided into two categories. Catabolism breaks down organic matter‚ for example to harvest

Matt Feldman Mr. Mosher AP Bio 12/6/2012 The Metabolism of Alcohol This article describes the process the liver undergoes to breakdown the alcohol in your blood stream. Also it discusses the consequences of heavy drinking and the damage it causes to your body. The only cells in our body that can metabolize ethanol are in our liver. In the cells NAD+ oxidizes the ethanol to acetic acid‚ which generates an excess amount of NADH‚ which gives its electrons to the ETC. Then Oxidative phosphorylation
