The answer is false.

Energy used by the body to perform muscular contractions and many other energy-required functions is adenosine triphosphate or ATP.

The most important function of ATP is its ability to store and transport chemical energy within cells. That energy can be used for many chemical processes such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, chemical synthesis.. When consumed in metabolic processes as an energy source, it becomes converted either to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or to adenosine monophosphate (AMP) because one or two phosphate groups are released (hydrolysis of high-energy bonds).

Since ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate it can be used for the synthesis of nucleic acids.

Answer:

mRNA destroyer concentration has a greater influence because it is destroying mRNA before proteins can even be produced.

Explanation:

<em>Proteins are synthesized from mRNA through the process of translation. mRNAs are first synthesized from a coding DNA template through the process of transcription. Hence, if mRNAs are destroyed, it means proteins will not be synthesized at all.</em>

Protein not being synthesized at all means that mRNA destroyer concentration has a greater influence on protein levels than protein degradation. With protein degradation, not all the protein is degraded at once and some quantity of the protein can still be found, but with mRNA destroyer concentration, no protein can be found at all because it was not synthesized in the first place.

Answer:

Drogas.

Explanation:

Las drogas son sustancias que tienen un efecto modificatorio sobre el estado normal de la psique. Por tanto, estas sustancias influyen en el comportamiento o la experiencia del usuario, pudiendo tener un efecto alucinógeno, pero también sedantes o una mixtura entre ambos.

El término se usa generalmente para indicar sustancias que tienen un efecto muy fuerte (por ejemplo, heroína, cannabis, mescalina, alcohol). Aunque los estimulantes cotidianos como el café y el chocolate también pueden tener un efecto en la psique, generalmente no se clasifican como sustancias psicoactivas debido a su efecto relativamente leve.

Los medicamentos que tienen un efecto sobre la psique se denominan psicofármacos. No obstante, los medicamentos que no se clasifican principalmente como psicofármacos, como los antihistamínicos, los agentes anti-mareo y los betabloqueantes, pueden también tener un efecto psicotrópico.
