5 0

Answer: D) alpha: catabolism

Explanation:

Glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates in animals. The major sites of storage are liver and muscle.

Glucagon is a polypeptide hormone, it is secreted by the alpha cells of the pancreas. Low blood glucose causes glucagon secretion. When blood glucose level falls, liver glycogen is broken and help to maintain blood glucose level.

Glucagon stimulates the enzyme glycogen phospholylase which breaks down glycogen into glucose units.

8-4 Discounting the Transverse Carrier Model. At one time, membrane biologists thought that transport proteins might act by bind
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The two main reasons are nonpolar core of the bilayer and the active transport.

Explanation:

The membrane is structured to have two outer layers that are polar and an inner layer that is nonpolar.

If a membrane protein is exposed to the solvent, i<em>t will also have a polar side. It would be very difficult for the polar face of the membrane to move through the nonpolar core of the bilayer.</em> Therefore, this model is not feasible.

One major form of transport, active transport, moves solutes up the concentration gradient. <em>The binding of a solute and then release on another side of the membrane would only work for facilitated diffusion because it would cause a net movement of solutes down the concentration gradient.</em> It is unclear how energy could be expended to drive this process in the transverse carrier model.<em> Therefore, the transverse carrier model does not explain active transport.</em>

Which kind of electrical charge is found on a hydrogen atom of a polar water molecule
irina1246 [14]

<span>Explanation: Oxygen is the more electro-negative of the atoms in the water molecule, so it tends to pull the 'shared' electron more to itself. Thus, the oxygen atom has a greater time-share of all electrons, and therefore the hydrogen atoms are more positive for a partial lack of electrons</span>
