Discuss and compare the relevance to the three energy systems for the sport of your choice‚ explain the details of each system? The body has only one unsuitable form of energy‚ this is known as ATP. ATP releases energy when broken down and is essential to the flow of energy to living cells. It can be re synthesized through a possible three energy systems; ATP-PC system‚ the glycolytic Lactic Acid system and the aerobic system. My chosen sport is trampolining the main performance in trampolining

Biodegradation OF Xenobiotics . OVERVIEW Microorganisms play an important role in the removal of synthetic organic compounds from the environment. This chapter gives an overview of the evolution of biodegradation pathways and describes the strategies that microorganisms have evolved to transform important molecular structures. The actual effectiveness of biodegradation in the environment is determined by the bioavailability of the

Quiz Chapter 13: How Cells Obtain Energy From Food . The energy released by oxidizing glucose is saved in high energy bonds of: ATP and other activated carrier molecues 2. Sugars derived from food are broken down by: glycolysis‚ the citric acid cycle‚ and oxidative phosphorylation 3. Catabolism: a breakdown process in which enzymes degrade complex molecules into simpler ones 4. The digestion of polymeric food molecules into monomeric subunits occurs in: extracellular space (i.g. lumen of

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)‚ an energy-bearing molecule found in all living cells. Formation of nucleic acids‚ transmission of nerve impulses‚ muscle contraction‚ and many other energy-consuming reactions of metabolism are made possible by the energy in ATP molecules. The energy in ATP is obtained from the breakdown of foods. An ATP molecule is composed of carbon‚ hydrogen‚ nitrogen‚ oxygen‚ and phosphorus atoms. There are three phosphorus atoms in the molecule. Each of these phosphorus atoms is

The degradation of cholesterol by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 10590 under aerobic conditions. 1. R W Owen‚ 2. A N Mason and 3. R F Bilton ABSTRACT The metabolic pathway of cholesterol degradation by bacteria has not been completely established. Several possible intermediates have not been identified and many pathway delineations have not involved the use of the cholesterol molecule per se and just one bacterial species. The bacterial degradation of cholesterol by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB

Electron Transport Chain The first step in the electron transport chain process is for the NADH2 produced during glycolysis‚ the intermediate step‚ and the citric acid cycle to be attracted to Complex I (FMN ·FeS)due to its high affinity for NADH2. This attraction pulls NADH2 to Complex I (NAD dehydrogenase) and the two electrons from H2 are pulled off by the FeS (ferrous sulfate) leaving two H+ ions and NAD+. These molecules repel each other and this results in the NAD+ being recycled

March 5‚ 2013 Biology 1111 Term Paper Glycolysis and the Citric Acid Cycle Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria‚ it is a metabolic pathway that is the breakdown of glucose (C6) and ends with 2 pyruvate (C3) molecules. Energy is invested to activate the glucose‚ 2 ATP are gained‚ and oxidation results in NADH‚ which will be used later for additional ATP production. Glycolysis is divided into (1) the energy-investment step‚ when ATP is used; and (2) the energy-harvesting

THE ROLE OF PROTEIN MISFOLDING AND AGGREGATION IN BSE When a protein misfolds it changes its behavior and function. If it becomes hydrophobic after once being polar. The properties and functionality of the protein are no longer useful to the organism and disaster results. PrPSc is hydrophobic‚ it avoids water inside of the cell…it attracts and attaches other proteins to misfolds and become hydrophobic …Misfolding spreads because the PrPSc act as chaperone proteins to convert PrPc TO PrPSc and
