Muscle cells store enough atp and phosphocreatine for about __________ of exercise.

Biology
1 answer:
Vladimir79 [104]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>The correct option is 15 seconds.</em>

Explanation:

At the time of exercise, our muscles contract rapidly. The contraction of the muscles is a phenomenon which occurs from the energy source ATP.

There are four sources of obtaining ATP at the time of muscle contraction. One of this source is phosphocreatine.

The phosphocreatine can create ATP for 15 seconds after the muscles start to contract. Phosphocreatine has the ability to donate a phosphate group to ADP to produce ATP.

Explain how signaling pathways are deactivated for transduction parts of a signaling pathway.
BARSIC [14]

Explanation:

cAMP binds to protein kinase A and activates it, allowing PKA to phosphorylate downstream factors to produce a cellular response. cAMP signaling is turned off by enzymes called phosphodiesterases, which break the ring of cAMP and turn it into adenosine monophosphate (AMP).

The majority of triglyceride digestion occurs in the small intestine facilitated by the enzyme
bixtya [17]

Answer:

pancreatic lipase

Explanation:

Enzymes from pancreas involved in triacylglycerol digestion are called pancreatic lipases and they catalyze the partial hydrolysis of triglycerides into a mixture of free fatty acids and acylglycerols. After digestion of lipids, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form micelles. Micelles are structures that are necessary for the transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte. But, micelles cannot be absorbed by epithelial cell, only freely dissolved monoglycerides and fatty acids can. Free fatty acids and monogycerids can just diffuse across the plasma membrane because of their nonpolar nature.

 Some absorption (e.g. for cholesterol) may be facilitated by specific transport proteins.
