Using a biology textbook and the resources listed‚ describe what the following molecules are and what they are used for in the human body. List some specific examples of each. Also list major dietary sources of each. a. Proteins- macromolecules made of amino acids. Proteins have many functions in the

respectively. Most of our cells prefer to get their energy by using oxygen to fuel metabolism. During exercise with adequate fuel and oxygen (i.e.‚ aerobic)‚ muscle cells can contract repeatedly without fatigue. During anaerobic or non-oxygen conditions (i.e.‚ higher intensity exercise)‚ muscle cells must rely on other reactions that do not require oxygen to fuel muscle contraction. This anaerobic metabolism in the cells produces waste molecules that can impair muscle contractions. We call this

Chapter 9 1) Approximately how much water do you need each day to stay healthy? Water constitutes 50% to 70% of the human body. Its unique chemical properties enable it to dissolve substances as well as serve as medium for chemical reactions‚ temperature regulation and lubrication (found in the knees and other joints of the body); it also aids in regulating the acid base balance in the body. It helps remove waste from the body and is the basis for saliva‚ bile and amniotic fluid. It is

and mercury. They are also the most extensively studied at the moment. Lead poisoning occurs mainly by the inhibitory effect that the metal imposes on enzymes and subsequent distortion of essential biochemical pathways. The metal disrupts calcium metabolism and subsequently causes neurotoxicity. It also inhibits the reduction of glutathionine in a biochemical process meant to produce antioxidants. Lead also intrudes and redirects the heme synthesis pathway leading to build up of aminolevulinic acid

Grady et al (2014) not only looked at growth rings in fossils‚ but also sought to estimate their metabolic rates by looking at changes in body size as animals grew from birth to adults. The researchers compiled an unprecedented dataset on growth and metabolism from studies of hundreds of animals encompassing both extinct and living species‚ including cold- and warm-blooded creatures‚ as well as dinosaurs. In general‚ warm-blooded mammals‚ that grow about 10 times faster than cold-blooded reptiles‚ also

The Role of Energy in the Body M1 Your body needs some kind energy to keep it functioning and working properly; Our bodies inherit the energy they need from food through metabolism. Metabolism is the chemical reactions in the cells that transfer the fuel from food into the energy needed in everyday life to complete daily activities. Energy is needed to get rid of oxygen from certain areas in our bodies and remove it from our bloodstream. Energy comes from; Fats Carbohydrates proteins Without
