Biology

quester [9]3 years ago

<span>Eating away from home is playing an increasing large role in the diet and the household budgets of American families. Back in 1970 approximately 26 percent of all food spending was on food away from home; by 2012, that amount had risen to 43 percent. The increase can be attributed to a greater percentage of women employed outside the home, more two-earner households with the resulting higher incomes, as well as more affordable and convenient fast food outlets. The downfall of this statistic is the contribution all that fast food makes to higher levels of obesity and lower dietary nutritional quality.</span>

Describe how you get energy indirectly from the food that you eat
lidiya [134]
<span>Since we are not able to get energy directly from the food we eat, a particular process needs to take place that converts molecules to Adenosine triphosphate, also known as ATP. This requires that the food first be broken down by being digested. As digestion takes place, the body uses the small molecules to make ATP.</span>

Effects of caffeine on cognitive functions
Maru [420]
Caffeine works as an adenosine receptor antagonists, this essentially means that it works in the opposite manner or works against the receptor. Think of antagonist in the term of literature it goes against the agonist. Adenosine when bond to the receptor causes tiredness, this is the reason why people drink caffeine to stay wake and to prevent cognitive decline from exhaustion. So caffeine doesn’t really effect learning or memory to a large extent like other stimulants do. So basically caffeine increases wakefulness which in turn allows a person to focus longer, slight increase in memory, and more of a sorted out thought process.
