This organ is the pancreas. It is a very small endocrine gland measuring 6 inches that is located on the left abdomen near the duodenum of the small intestine and the spleen. The pancreas is a very important organ that secretes digestive enzymes like:
pancreatic amylase - breaks down polysaccarides and glycogen into simple sugars
trypsin- breaks down proteins into amino acids
pancreatic lipase - breaks down triglycerides to fatty acids and monoglycerides
ribonuclease - digests nucleic acids
It also secretes insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.
Answer:
The cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
Explanation:
- Fatty acyl group condensed with CoA in the cytosol are first transferred to carnitine and in this process, CoA is released.
- After this, it is transported into the mitochondrion, where it is again condensed with CoA.
- In this way, the cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and due to this reason, no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
- Therefore, according to the given question, the C14 CoA that is added into the liver homogenate along with palmitate shows cytosolic radioactive fraction but not mitochondrial as in the mitochondria a different CoA joins palmitate and not the one containing C14.
Answer:
By the size and shape of the organisms.
Explanation:
C. albicans isn't a bacteria, it's actually a fungi. Therefore, there will exist significant differences between the bacteria normally found in the vagina, and the fungi that can be causing an infection. Fungus are, usually, bigger than bacteria. Also bacteria have special shapes, like bacillus and spirils, which fungus don't.
Answer:
Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plants and a significant component of proteins, which all animals need to grow, reproduce and survive. The nitrogen cycle converts nitrogen into compounds that plants and animals can use. Humans and Animals Need Nitrogen All human tissue – muscles, skin, hair, nails and blood – contains protein.
