Describe the process used in the cell making ATP

Biology
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The reason you eat is to ultimately create a molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) so that your cells have the means to power themselves, and therefore you, along. And not incidentally, the reason you breathe is that oxygen is needed in order to get the maximal amount of cell energy from the precursors of the glucose molecules in that food.

The process human cells use to generate ATP is called cellular respiration. It results in the creation of 36 to 38 ATP per molecule of glucose. It consists of a series of stages, beginning in the cell cytoplasm and moving to the mitochondria, the "power plants" of eukaryotic cells. The two ATP-producing processes can be viewed as glycolysis (the anaerobic part) followed by aerobic respiration (the oxygen-requiring part).

Given the controversy over drilling for oil as well as transporting oil, what is a viable option for the future?
kirza4 [7]
<span>Alternatives include use bio fuels. Use of bio fuels does not cause climate change because it is a closed carbon cycle (carbon dioxide emitted by burning of the fuels is captured by these plants in photosynthesis). The other is a complete switch to electric cars and adopting of carbon-fuel free machines. </span>

g Consider a series of metabolic events during fasting. Within a few days after a fast begins, nitrogen excretion accelerates to
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

. Identify the process that triggers the initial surge of nitrogen excretion,

The reason for this is because of the gluconeogenesis ,(in the liver and cortex of the kidney) which make up for the  reduction in glucose blood level, from rapid catabolism to glucose at the beginning of fasting, by breaking down protein to glucose in the liver. Therefore excess Nitrogen is produced as the byproducts of amino acids catabolism.

Physiologically the mammalian brain prefers the keto bodies supply from fatty acids catabolism from gluconeogenesis compare to protein. These water solube subtances cross the BBB to  reach the brain the CNS substituting for glucose. Thus as more fatty acids is converted to ketobodies at faster rate, the brain gets adapted to this, and therefore catabolism of amino acids drops, hence Nitrogen concentration in the blood drops.

However, with exhaustion of Glycogen and fatty acid, catabolims of amino acids resumes. therefore, more amino acids are broken down, and Nitrogen build up in the Urine for excretion.
