luconeogenesis is a ubiquitous process, present in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and other microorganisms.[2] In vertebrates, gluconeogenesis takes place mainly in the liver and, to a lesser extent, in the cortex of the kidneys. In ruminants, this tends to be a continuous process.[3] In many other animals, the process occurs during periods of fasting, starvation, low-carbohydrate diets, or intense exercise. The process is highly endergonic until it is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP or GTP, effectively making the process exergonic. For example, the pathway leading from pyruvate to glucose-6-phosphate requires 4 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of GTP to proceed spontaneously. Gluconeogenesis is often associated with ketosis. Gluconeogenesis is also a target of therapy for type 2 diabetes, such as the antidiabetic drug, metformin, which inhibits glucose formation and stimulates glucose uptake by cells.[4] In ruminants, because dietary carbohydrates tend to be metabolized by rumen organisms, gluconeogenesis occurs regardless of fasting, low-carbohydrate diets, exercise, etc.[5]
Blood cells more then any other factor notice water doesn't have any cells in it and it flows freely and quickly.
Answer is: <span>a. True.
</span>The overall effect of insulin is to lower blood glucose and amino acid levels by promoting their cellular uptake and incorporation into glycogen and proteins, respectively. <span>The net effect of insulin is to decrease blood glucose and amino acids and stimulate the cellular uptake of these molecules and their incorporation into polymers.
</span>Insulin <span>is a </span>peptide hormone<span> produced by </span>beta cells<span> of the </span><span>pancreatic islets.</span>
In autotrophic bacteria, chlorophyll is located in the infolded regions of the plasma membrane.
Autotrophic bacteria are those that can synthesize their own food. The energy can be derived either from sunlight or from chemical reactions. Only a few amount of bacteria are autotrophic. The examples of such bacteria are: green sulfur bacteria, purple sulfur bacteria, heliobacteria, etc.
Chlorophyll is the green colored pigment involved in the process of photosynthesis. The chlorophyll acts as a reaction center that absorbs the energy from sunlight to initiate the process of photosynthesis. The energy absorbed by other pigments is also transferred to the reaction center.
