Metabolism is a broad term that includes all chemical reactions that occur within body cells. It includes breaking down substanc

es into simpler building blocks (the process of catabolism), synthesizing more complex cellular structures from simpler substances (anabolism), and using nutrients and oxygen to produce (via cellular respiration) ATP, the energy-rich molecules that power cellular activities. What is false about metabolism?

Answer:

The statement that is false is <u>metabolism is regulated largely by the nervous system.</u>

Explanation:

The metabolism reactions are controlled by the enzymes specific for each metabolic reactions. After a signal is generated, specific enzymes that detect the signal starts up the metabolic reactions.

When there is a need to stop a certain metabolic reaction, then the mechanism of feedback inhibition is used which stops the enzyme from carrying out any further reactions. Hence, the statement that metabolism is regulated largely by the nervous system is false.

Lipids in a bilayer can diffuse laterally at a relatively fast rate, but \"flip-flop\" from one leaflet to the other very slowly
natima [27]

Answer:

  • flippases translocate lipids from outer (extracellular) leaflet to inner (cytosolic) leaflet,
  • floppases, move phospholipids from inner (cytoplasmic) leaflet to outer (extracellular) leaflet, ABC transporter, move phospolipids across the lipid bilayer down the concentration gradient
  • scramblases Not ATP-dependent, Activation may result in increased membrane lipid symmetry, translocate phosphatidylserine,  preventing apoptosis and engulfment by macrophages,  

Explanation:

Flipases are transportes that require energy for their functioning (ATP dependent) beause they move phospolipids across the lipid bilayer against the concentration gradient  (from extracellular side to cytosolic side).

Floppases are ABC transporters, opposite than flippases (move phospholipids from the cytosolic side).

Scrablases are bidirectional transporters, responsible for asymmetry formation. It also enables exposure of phosphatidylserineon the outer leaflet when it is necessary.
