DNA is bound together by covalent bonds between different molecules. It also contains proteins, which again are held together in their specific structures by covalent bonds. 

Covalent bonds may be broken when high temperatures are applied. The temperatures that a food encounters during the cooking cause the DNA to be denatured, meaning it cannot be extracted. The same occurs with other proteins such as enzymes and antibodies.

Yanka [14]

Growth Hormone and insulin are protein hormones that promotes the growth and regulation of substrate metabolism.

Explanation:

The Growth Hormone performs the metabolic actions in various tissues like liver, muscle, and pancreas through insulin growth factor. Insulin slows down the growth hormone signalling through the growth hormone receptor. It is important for maintaining the responsiveness of liver to growth hormone.

The insulin signalling pathway is very important in metabolic diseases like diabetes and aging. These insulin activates a phosphorylation cascade that branches to form a network affecting multiple biological processes.
