If a person uses up his or her reserve supply of glycogen and still does not eat, sugar comes from the muscle.

Although only liver glycogen directly contributes to the release of glucose into circulation, maintaining a healthy blood glucose concentration is one of the glycogen's key functions. Since skeletal muscles lack glucose 6-phosphatase, they are unable to release glucose, and muscle glycogen primarily serves as a local energy source for activity rather than a source of fuel to keep blood glucose levels stable while fasting.

In fact, the breakdown of muscle glycogen into lactate allows for its delivery to the liver, where it participates in the maintenance of euglycemia through the process of gluconeogenesis (Cori cycle).

The more extreme winter storms in the Southern United States will result in change of behavior or migration of the animals that live there. The reason for that is that the animals, in this case the birds, will not be able to get to enough food, so they will have to move to a region that will provide enough food for them to survive. These birds are used to mild winters and sufficient amount of food, but the more extreme winter conditions bring in temperatures that are not suitable for the birds, and on top of that the food sources will be damaged. This will force the birds to migrate further south, toward Mexico or Central America where the winter conditions would be much better for the birds and they will be able to sustain their populations.

What happens to DNA after RNA polymerase has synthesized a mRNA molecule?
schepotkina [342]
Synthesized RNA will remain. I believe this is because the polymerase allows the DNA to close up & that’s how it forms its double helix. Then the RNA chain is displaced and the DNA will soon be re-formed.
