Answer:

Providing energy and regulation of blood glucose.

Sparing the use of proteins for energy.

Breakdown of fatty acids and preventing ketosis.

Explanation:

The main function of carbohydrates is to provide energy and regulation of glucose in the blood.  It prevent the use of proteins for production of energy and also promote breakdown of fatty acids and preventing ketosis. Ketosis is a process that occurs when our body doesn't have carbohydrates in sufficient quantity for the production of energy. Carbohydrates are the first biomolecules that are used for energy production.

How do the resurection of fern, crysts of brine shrimps and tardigrade survive with no water?
ehidna [41]
They survive without water by entering a special mode, otherwise called as shriveling. They can lose even 95% of water in their body and still live, even though they would look like dead plants, they would actually be alive. In the absence of water, tardigrades use a sugar called trehalose, which becomes their source of life until they find some water.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Sodium and potassium ions are essential for muscle contractions of the heart
____ [38]

Answer:

1) By breaking of ATP to ADP

2) The sodium and potassium ions are transported using active transport process!

Explanation:

In cell, the movement of ions across the membrane at the expense of energy is known as Active Transport. The energy is used in the form of ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate) that gets converted to ADP(Adenosine diphosphate) during transport. It takes the ions from high concentration to low concentration. ADP contains one less phosphate group that ATP, as their name indicates and plays a prime role in the flow of energy to the cells.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

B- Most of the glucose 6-phosphate enters the pentose phosphate pathway.

Explanation:

Since the cell requires much more ribose 5- phosphate than NADPH, then it would lead the glucose 6-phosphate down the oxidative phosphate pathway to create ribulose 5-phosphate, which can be isomerized to ribose 5-phosphate depending on the cell state.
