They have a lot of applications in our body, For example

Answer & Explanation:

Carbohydrates - They are used primarily by the body as a source of energy through the breakdown of <u>glucose</u> molecules.

Lipids - They act as an energy reserve, just as carbohydrates are precursors of various hormones, as well as acting as thermal insulators and carriers of fat-soluble nutrients and vitamins.

Proteins - Acting in building muscle tissue and maintaining physiological and metabolic functions. Proteins contain essential amino acids (which are <u>not</u> produced by the human body, and therefore must be consumed in the diet). They are also important in the composition of hormones, antibodies, oxygen transport and blood clotting.

Nucleic Acids - They are responsible for the storage and transport of genetic information and its translation, allowing the synthesis of proteins, which will be able to express the characteristics of each living being.

Need to write a short news report on how does the brain he brain, heart and skeleton work together
Kitty [74]

The brain, heart and the skeleton are the integral parts of the nervous system, circulatory system and the skeletal system respectively. The nervous system is made of the brain and the spinal cord with neurons as the structural and functional units of it. The circulatory system is made up of the heart and its blood vessels. The skeletal system is made up of the bones and cartilages making the skeleton of the body.

The brain regulates the heart beat and the blood pressure. The heart nourishes the brain with oxygen and nutrients by pumping blood. The bone cells are nourished by the blood pumped by the heart. The bone marrow of the skeleton produces the new red blood cells which enter the blood circulatory system. Also the the ribs and the breast bone of the skeleton protects the heart, the cranium of the skeleton prtects the brain. The bones also provide calcium which is necessory for the functioning of the nervous system. The brain controls the skeletal movements of the body. The cerebellum of the brain controls the voluntary skeletal movements and the medulla controls the involuntary skeletal movements of the body. The blood brain barrier formed by the endothelial cells of the capillary walls located in the brain seperates the circulating blood from the brain and the extraclellular fluid in the central nervous system and acts as a selective semipermeable border.
