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.

Immune system cells enter a resting phase after undergoing mitosis. When activated by an infection for example, they can reenter
Leni [432]

Answer:

G, S, G2, M

Explanation:

Cell cycle refers to the orderly events that prepare the cells for cell division and finally divide the parent cells into the daughter cells. The cell cycle consists of two stages: interphase and M phase.  

Interphase is the phase wherein cells prepare to enter the M phase. Interphase has three stages: G1, S, and G2.

G1 is the first gap between represents the time between the end of mitosis and the beginning of the S phase. During the G1 phase, normal growth and metabolism take place. G1 phase is followed by the S phase, the synthesis phase, during which DNA replication and synthesis of histone proteins occur.  

The cells then enter the G2 or the second gap during which cells synthesize more proteins and prepare to enter the M phase.  

M phase is the phase of nuclear division that divides the nucleus of the parent cell into 2 or 4 daughter nuclei (depending on the type of the cell division that the parent cell has entered).

Therefore, the sequence of the stages that the cell will go through is G, S, G2, and M.

What was observed to happen to the frequency of small-beak-depth g. fortis on an island when a large-beak-depth competitor was i
Artist 52 [7]

The first observation was that, natural selection might itself be variable because it is dependent with the different seasons the environment have. Second, the frequency of small-beak depth Geospiza fortis became lesser on an island when a large-beak-depth was introduced because the large-beak-depth species has greater survival rate especially during dry season were they can eat larger and harder seeds as compare to the small-beak-depth birds.
