    the lactic acid system will continue providing ATP molecules to create required energy. This system produces lactic acid as a waste product in the chemical breakdown of glucose and glycogen (glycolysis). After lactic acid system has used all PC‚ body needs to find a new fuel in the form of blood glucose or glycogen stored in the muscle to keep going. Lactic acid then builds up in the cell and is transferred into the blood stream where the body tries to get rid of. Requires oxygen to make the

    INTRODUCTION Macromolecules are highly important organized organic molecules that are found within living cells. These biological molecules help the body execute precise important tasks. There are four types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. (Karp‚ 2010) This specific experiment showcased the identification of different macromolecules using three different testing methods. Carbohydrates‚ sugar molecules‚ are known as “fast fuel” in the body‚ and they contain

    Insulin will stimulate liver to store excess glucose as glycogen and also fatty acid which stored in adipose tissue. It activates the enzyme hexokinase‚ which phosphorylates glucose‚ trapping it within the cell and hence block the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase (Plum‚ Belgardt & Brüning 2006). Insulin will restrain fuel mobilization and breakdown of glycogen are blocked. Hence‚ causes the glucose to decrease gradually. However‚ the blood glucose will go
