What is a chromosome? ( In simple terms please)

ratelena [41]

Well the definition in an actual dictionary or scientific book is quite confusing, so to put it simply:
A chromosome is a DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism.

If that makes any sense.
That’s really as simple as I know it.
Chromosomes are complex, so a simple definition doesn’t come easy.
Happy to help!

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

I believe the amount of mitochondria in our body only increases after long term exercising.

When you are exercising, you do not produce more mitochondria straight away. Even after you stop, the amount of mitochondria will be the same.

I believe the production of mitochondria and the improvement of your muscles is the same. You need to exercise for awhile before you can get more mitochondria in your body.

As for your amount of food needed, it is not according to the amount of mitochondria you have. It is according to how much energy you need.

You should be able to tell how much food you need. So, you actually wont produce more fats. As long as you eat the correct and moderate amount of food.

You will not produce more fat when you stop exercising than when you never exercise. Like I said, the amount of fat produced is according to your food intake. Your food intake is according to your energy needs. As long as you eat moderately, you will not produce more fat. In fact, you will be able to burn fats better after long term exercise because your body will be healthier and able to moderate itself.

Sympathetic dominance---
Increase in muscle mass----- Raise

Decreased in insulin----- Lower the tmr
Decrease in TSH ---- Lower the tmr
Increase in adrenal cortex function ------raising the tmr
Increase in thyroxine ---- raising the tmr
Training for a marathon -----raising the tmr
Malabsorption of nutrients-------- Lower the tmr
Decrease in adrenal medulla function ------ Lower the tmr
Epinephrine secretion------- raising the tmr

The total metabolic rate is the total energy used by the body each day. Physical activity such as Training for a marathon require more energy and leads to increasing the tmr. Whereas, malabsorption of nutrients lowering the tmr because less food is being supplied, and therefore less energy production.
