Coenzymes

Coenzymes are small organic molecules that, themselves, do not function as catalysts (i.e. enzymes) but aid the latter in carrying out their functions. Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means that they allow reactions to occur at lower activation energies. In a way, enzymes help to "speed up" chemical reactions. 

Coenzymes are mostly derived from vitamins. Examples include TPP from Vitamin B1 (thiamine), FAD from Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), and NAD+ from Niacin.

Normally, what is the relationship of the amount of sodium excreted to the amount ingested that day?​
kvv77 [185]
The correct answer is "intake and excretion are equal." Normally, there should be equilibrium between the intake of sodium and the excreted sodium. There are regulatory mechanisms in the body that regulate the excretion of sodium in order to match it with the intake. This is to prevent hyponatremia and hypernatremia.
