Chapter 4: Cellular Metabolism Chapter 4: Cellular Metabolism I. Metabolic Processes A. Introduction 1. Metabolism is the sum total of chemical reactions within cells. 2. In metabolic reactions‚ the product of one reaction serves as starting materials for another metabolic reaction. 3. This chapter explores how metabolic pathways supply a cell with energy and how other biochemical processes enable a cell to produce proteins. 4. Two types of metabolic reactions

Anabolism and Catabolism Anabolism and catabolism are two phases of the human body’s metabolic process. Metabolism is a process that is essential for humans to live a healthy and productive life. The anabolism phase is the process where the body builds up the needed molecules. This phase requires energy in order to complete the process. Catabolism releases energy that can be used by the organism. This phase is the process of breaking down the complex molecules into smaller portions. These two

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

Hormones and Behaviors Sarah Wegner BEH/225 December 12‚ 2014 Nancy Ault Hormones and Behaviors The endocrine system plays a big part in the production and distribution of hormones into the body. These hormones can affect an individual’s behavior greatly. Hormones such as estrogen affect a woman’s moods and emotions; steroid hormones cross the bloodstream directly to the brain and affect the neurons directly. This action can cause changes in behavior for both men and women. The endocrine system acts
