The answer to this question would be: ketone

When the body metabolizes the fat, it would result in a ketone. The ketone will be excreted by the kidney and dumped in the urine.
An example of this condition is ketoacidosis in diabetic patient who doesn't get treatment. In this case, the cell cant use glucose as the insulin produced is not enough. This cause high number of fat metabolized to be ketone.

In the cell, energy that drives endergonic reactions is often obtained from
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: B) energy released from exergonic reactions.  

Explanation:

Cell metabolism is the set of reactions that occur in the cellular environment to synthesize or degrade biomolecules to produce energy. Synthesis metabolism of biomolecules is known as anabolic (anabolism) and catabolic degradation (catabolism).

Endergonic reaction (product has more energy than reagents) and requires energy to occur. Anabolism occurs when the cell has sufficient energy or substrate. Catabolism, in turn, occurs in situations in which the body needs energy, such as between meals and fasting.

The reactions of anabolism and catabolism are opposite but occur in an articulated manner, allowing the maximization of available energy. Thus, while catabolism occurs spontaneously, an exergonic reaction with ATP production, anabolism is non-spontaneous, or endergonic, requiring energy to occur. In other words energy that drives endergonic reactions is often obtained from B) energy released from exergonic reactions.

Identify whether the statement is true or false, and why. "Each type of receptor protein is specific to a certain signal or type
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: A. True

Explanation: Cell receptors are proteins that receive  signals and trigger a signal cascade for the cell can respond. There's many types of  receptors, depend of their location and their enzymatic activity, and each type can recognize  certain  signals. For example, tyrosine-kinase receptors can recognize growth factors, JAK associated receptors can recognize cytokines, etc. That specificity is given by the structure of the receptor and the structure of the signal.
