Exam: 46.4‚45‚47‚48 Lecture outline for the zoology unit revised 2010 Introduction to animal form & function and regulation of TB (ch. 40 & Concept 42.4) This first reading assignment reviews 5 major principles re living organisms: 1. Physical laws & the environment constrain the size & shape of organisms. 2. Form & function are correlated at all levels of organization. 3. Chemical energy in food is used to sustain form & function. 4. Many animals (& other organisms) regulate

impact on the hydrolysis of starch. By breaking the alpha‚ 1-4 glycosidic linkages in the carbohydrates‚ amylase hydrolyzes the starch‚ a polysaccharides that is stored in plants and cannot be directly digested by animal cells‚ into maltose‚ a disaccharide that later generate two units of glucose to undergo metabolisms and provides necessary energy (Slaughter et al.‚ 2001). The enzymatic activity of α-amylase is facilitated by calcium and chloride ions during the hydrolysis (Marini‚ 2006 and Siddiqui

Comment on the statement below: ‘Glycolysis and Gluconeogenesis are reciprocally regulated’ Reciprocally regulated means when one process takes place in a cell‚ the other process will essentially inactivated. This regulation ensures that either glycolysis or gluconeogenesis predominate as to prevent concurrent activity in two closely parallel pathways‚ where if both Glycolysis and Gluconeogenesis

ENZYMOLOGY DISORDERS OF METABOLISM By Wieslaw Faliszewski Our cells are using various types of substances in order to perform their functions. They also use them as a source of energy to perform all the required tasks. Some of those compounds come from the outside in the form of consumed food; others are synthesized in our body. Majority of those compounds have to be broken into simpler parts that can be used in different metabolic processes. The problem is‚ however‚ that most of the

BIOL 140 Lab—The Chemical Composition of Cells Name ____________________________ I) Introduction All cells contain four major types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ nucleic acids‚ and proteins. In today’s lab‚ we will be studying three of the four-proteins‚ carbohydrates and lipids. Various chemical tests can be used to detect the presence of each of these molecules. Most of the tests involve a color change visible to the eye. If a color change is observed‚ the test is considered positive
