Answer: Homeostasis
Explanation: One way that a cell maintains homeostasis is by controlling the movement of substances across the cell membrane. The lipid bilayer is selectively permeable to small, nonpolar substances. Proteins in the cell membrane include cell-surface markers, receptor proteins, enzymes, and transport proteins.
Hello,
Please find below a short summary on the subject you have been assigned. This will help you in completing your project and also give you an overview on the current research on this subject.
Food additives are chemical substances added to food in order to either maintain or improve its physical characteristics such as taste, texture, appearance and even freshness.
The long term effects that these substances have on the human body are still largely unstudied. According to the hypothesis called "chemical obesogen", these synthetic compounds are contributing factors to the global obesity epidemic.
Although evidence-based scientific research is still lacking, the support for this hypothesis is growing as many of these additives have been found to disturb the body's endocrine functions.
Furthermore, artificial preservatives used today may increase the risk of inflammatory bowel disease. This has been shown by a study on mice in which the food additives known as emulsifiers (carboxymethylcellulose and polysorbate-80) have been shown to affect the animal's health.
Due to these chemicals, the mice not only became obese but also developed metabolic problems such as glucose intolerance. It seems that these chemicals affect the gut bacteria population in a negative way, as mice lacking gut bacteria did not become ill.
The mice study was followed by another study in which the human simulated through a series of flasks. Under the influence of the emulsifiers arboxymethylcellulose (E566 on EU labels) and polysorbate-80 (E433), the levels of bacterial protein called flagellin increased. This protein is known to cause inflammation at high concentrations. The next step in the study will be the first human trials.
Due to the long road our food takes from the farm to our table more extensive research is required. There are thousands of compounds that change the biochemical properties of the plants and animals that constitute our diet. The effects of the degradation and accumulation of these compounds are still unknown and thus many more studies and approaches are required in order to insure healthy food and stop the current obesity epidemic. Everything that is added to our food should be carefully analyzed.
Answer: Biological
Explanation:
Women experience different types of eating disorders as compared to men this shows that the biological factor affects the psychopathology.
There are many different types of the eating disorders. The disorders like anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, rumination are some of the eating disorder which is seen in females.
These disorders are common in females more than male. These factors show that the psychopathology is somewhere related to the biology.
<span>The space-filling model of a hydrogen molecule would be something like OO , two circles stuck to each other, even squished a little bit. The model for carbon dioxide would be like OOO, with the two circles on the sides a little bigger and squished into the middle circle. </span>
<span>Amino acids are considered as the building blocks of protein's, so amino acid rich food simply means protein rich food. There are 20 classifications for amino acids but nine of them are essential since our body can't make them. Usually in diet important amino acids are Lysine (C6H14N2O2), Leucine (C6H13NO2), Valine (C5H11NO2), Tryptophan (C11H12N2O2), Isoleucine (C6H13NO2) Phenylalanine (C9H11NO2) and Threonine
(C4H9NO3).</span>
