Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi

le stimulating both glycogenolysis and glycolysis in muscles?
Biology

Debora [2.8K]2 years ago

This is because if the two  metabolic processes were to be  active at at the same time;  

Two molecules of<u> ATPs</u> and <u>Guanosine triphophate </u>(sometimes used for  energy transport) <u>will be expended per each cycle, with no  compensatory rate  of replacements present  at the moment in the cell,this  affects cell metabolism for energy availability</u>

<u>2</u> Both<u> Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis </u>are both<u> exergonic processes  in cells. </u> The  heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects  will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently;  the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.    

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise  to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid  cycle can  metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production.  Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for  Glycolysis to continue. Therefore  to sustain Glycolysis at this rate  continuous supply of glucose is supplied  from Gluconeogenesis.

A botanist has discovered a new plant species and is trying to classify the plant. Its seed has one cotyledon, it has six flower
lana66690 [7]

The best suited group for the mentioned plant is Angiosperms and monocot.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

As mentioned the seed of the plant has one cotyledon and the specific name for these type of plants whose seeds has one cotyledon is called Monocot, Suppose if the seed of the plant has two seeds, It is called dicot.

Hence we can conclude that the mentioned plant comes under monocot and not dicot.  On the other hand, Angiosperms refers to the plants that has flowers with it and gymnosperms usually includes plants without flowers and hence we can classify the plant as Angiosperm and monocot.

Fibrous joints are held together by?
Ugo [173]
⭐️The answer is ⭐️


Fibrous joints are connected by dense connective tissue consisting mainly of collagen. These joints are also called fixed or immovable joints because they do not move. Fibrous joints have no joint cavity and are connected via fibrous connective tissue. The skull bones are connected by fibrous joints called sutures.

Which of the following best describes how cleaning products like chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, and soap influence the infectious
torisob [31]

Answer:

These cleaning products break apart the capsules of the viruses causing them to no longer be capable of infecting an individual.

Explanation:

Bleach oxidises organic molecules. This causes proteins to become denatured, or lose their shape. The viral capsule containing the DNA is a coat made up of proteins that is required for the virus to become infectious. Therefore, following bleach treatment, the viral protein capsule become oxidised, cause them to loses their shape, meaning the virus can no longer infect individuals.

What are the general characteristics of sexual reproduction in humans and other vertebrates that are associated with continuous
aliya0001 [1]
Production of sperms is referred as spermatogenesis and production of ovum or egg is called oogenesis. Spermatogenesis and oogenesis are similar in a way in humans as bth these processes produce large numbers of sperms and eggs. Spermatogenesis is a continuous process where large numbers of sperms are produced at once and uses less energy. Ovulation is a process where only one egg or ovum matures at a time requires more energy. Not all the egg cells mature in females.

A cell membrane is more flexible than a brick wall. Why might many cells benefit from a flexible cell membrane? and A building h
Fofino [41]

Answer:

plant: This Elodea leaf cell exemplifies a typical plant cell. It has a nucleus, and a stiff cell wall which gives the cell its box-like shape. The numerous green chloroplasts allow the cell to make its own food (by photosynthesis).

The central vacuole takes up most of the volume of the cell. It is transparent, but you can see where it's pressing the chloroplasts up against the cell wall, especially at the ends of the cell.

Like animal cells, the cytoplasm of this plant cell is bordered by a cell membrane. The membrane is so thin and transparent that you can't see it, but it is pressed against the inside of the cell wall.

animal :This human cheek cell is a good example of a typical animal cell. It has a prominent nucleus and a flexible cell membrane which gives the cell its irregular, soft-looking shape.

Like most eukaryotic cells, this cell is very large compared to prokaryotic cells. For scale, notice the pair of dark blue bacteria cells sticking to the right edge of the cheek cell. The bacteria are only a fraction of the size of the nucleus, but their tiny size is typical for bacteria.
