To understanding the metabolism of alcohol‚ we should know that what is alcohol‚ how is it affect human body. Alcohol is being considered one of the most commonly used drugs because it has adverse impacts on human’s health through how it’s metabolized. Alcohol is a compound of hydrogen‚ carbon and oxygen‚ which can be combined in many different ways. The commonest as known as ethyl ethanol‚ which is a specific alcohol compound (C2H5OH) and formed from the fermentation of yeast‚ sugars

Definition/comparison questions Evolution / Selection Evolution is a slow continuous process of change that happens in plants and animals over a long period of time resulting in a change from simpler to more complex forms. This is the reason modern day plants and animals are different from those of past. The competition for resources will favour organisms with better adaptability and certain variations over others hence leading to change in the rate of occurrence of certain traits within that population

Composition Tables that show dairy products are rich sources of BCAAs and whey protein isolate is a leading source of leucine. The author cites several studies that give increasing evidence that BCAAs‚ specifically leucine‚ have a unique affect on metabolism that includes regulation of muscle protein synthesis and glucose homeostasis. The impact of BCAAs is proportional to availability and dietary intake. Layman DK. The role of leucine in weight loss diets and glucose homeostasis. Journal of Nutrition

Maintaining a Balance 1. Most organism are active in a limited temperature range The role of Enzymes in metabolism‚ their chemical composition and specificity on substrates Role of enzymes * Enzymes are organic catalysts. They are protein molecules that increase the rate of the reactions in living organisms. * Without enzymes‚ metabolic reactions at body temperatures would be too slow to produce sufficient energy to maintain life * Intracellular enzymes are used in the cells

I in the Fall and Biochemistry II in the Spring. These courses have been designed so that when integrated they provide the necessary biochemical knowledge for those in the medical and health related professions. The structure‚ function and metabolism of biologically important molecules were reviewed in biochemistry I. Biochemistry II serves to build on this material whilst considering the application of biochemistry to disease etiology‚ diagnosis and treatment. Biochemistry II starts with

These biological macromolecules vary greatly in size - from several hundred to several hundred million molecular weight units - and are made up of monomer units. There are four major classes of biological macromolecules: proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and nucleic acids (Sheeler & Bianchi‚ 1980). Proteins are made up of polymers of amino acids. The shape and structure of a cell is defined by proteins (Alberts et al.‚ 1989). Carbohydrates are made up of polymers of simple sugars called monosaccharides
