    triglyceride reaches its destination in the body‚ it is either used immediately or it is store in adipose tissue (fat). Triglycerides are a major part of stored potential energy in the human body because they store about twice the amount of energy than polysaccharides. Triglycerides are also major components in metabolism and insulation in the human body. When there is an increase in glucagon and a decrease in insulin levels in the blood‚ it triggers the release of the triglycerides from the adipose tissue

    ABSTRACT The effect of inorganic cofactor such as Magnesium to the rate of respiration of yeast was determined using Durham tube assembly with the substrate glucose. After thirty minutes‚ the test tube with the cofactor in the form of Magnesium sulphate MgSO4 showed the higher amount of carbon dioxide evolved which was measurable through volume and was one of the by- products of cellular respiration. This stated that the higher amount of CO2 evolved‚ the higher the rate of respiration. Thus‚ the
