THE GREAT METABOLIC RACE INTRODUCTION During exercise‚ carbohydrates and lipids are required in order to provide energy for the working body. The inherent reduced nature of these compounds allows for partial or complete oxidation in extracting energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The varying chemical structure of the macromolecules evokes different processes for their complete utilisation. This paper seeks to expound on the mobilisation of these fuels‚ the biochemical pathways that

understand their metabolic process at various temperatures. Other studies show that although poikilotherms are viable at varying temperatures some organisms like the salmon still struggle to survive or succeed as temperature fluctuate (Brett 1971). The fish loses energy and at different stages of their life‚ they have different temperature tolerances that ultimately regulate the fish species overall population and success (Bisson and Davis 1976).

Eco-socialism. Metabolic Rift is a recent ideology introduced by John Bellamy Foster. This is an extension of Marx’s view on ecological crisis that occur under capitalism. The concept of the Metabolic Rift is the dynamic interchange between human beings and nature‚ resulting from human labour. John Bellamy Foster is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Oregon. He writes about political economy of capitalism and economic crisis‚ and Marxist theory. Social ecology‚ green socialism and metabolic rift

Osteoporosis‚ meaning porous bones‚ is the most common metabolic bone disease with over 10 million diagnoses in the United States of America.1 Another 34 million people are affected by osteopenia‚ the early stages of osteoporosis.1 Osteoporosis decreases bone mass and also causes micro damage to bone structure‚ increasing the likelihood of fracture and other injuries. There are two classifications of osteoporosis: primary and secondary (primary being the most common type). It affects people of all
