Biology
1 answer:
SVETLANKA909090 [29]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

From food

Explanation:

Food energy is a chemical energy used by humans through the process of cellular respiration. Food contain macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, water, vitamins, and minerals that are necessary for the human metabolism and they are broken down and used by the series of metabolic steps (glycolysis, Krebs  cycle, electront transport chain and oxidative phosphorilation). Digested macromolecules should be used either as a source of energy or as building blocks for the cell.

At the end of catabolic processes within an organism food energy is transformed into energy usable by the cell-ATP.

Moving up trophic levels there is an increase in energy, entropy, and biomass.<br> True or False?
Anon25 [30]
False. Energy is lost between levels due to things like respiration for heat and movement. In reality about <em>90%</em> is lost between each trophic level, which is why us eating food from higher up is far less efficient than us eating a producer.

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: Yes and No

Explanation: I think that we should use technology to alter our genetic code if someone is ill/sick because it is actually beneficial, but I think we shouldn't dive too deep or get lost in altering genes because it can cause unintended consequences.

The only part of a triglyceride that can be used to make glucose (via gluconeogenesis) is the __________.
nexus9112 [7]

The only part of a triglyceride that can be used to make glucose (via gluconeogenesis) is the glycerol backbone.

A triglyceride is a type of fat. It consists of a glycerol backbone and three fatty acids attached to each of the hydroxyl group of the glycerol. High quantities of triglyceride can be harmful for the body, especially the heart. The normal range of triglycerides in the body should be less than 150 mg/dL.

Glycerol is  a three carbon structure consisting of three hydroxyl groups attached  to each carbon. It is of great importance for living organisms as it forms the backbone for various phospholipids and other lipid structures.
