gain muscle mass. Lean beef is loaded with all sorts of things conducive to muscle growth‚ including iron‚ zinc and B-vitamins. More importantly‚ it provides your body with high quality protein (not all proteins are equal)‚ and a high level of amino acid that works with insulin to promote muscle growth. For those who are trying to lose weight‚ this should come as great news – a 3oz serving of lean beef provides roughly the same amount of protein as 1.5 cups of beans‚ but at half the calories’’

starch‚ and contain significant amounts of calcium (50 mg/100g)‚ phosphorus (40 mg/100g) and vitamin C (25 mg/100g). However‚ they are poor in protein and other nutrients. In contrast‚ cassava leaves are a good source of protein‚ and are rich in the amino acid lysine‚ though deficient in methionine and possibly tryptophan. These components are components of biodegradable plastic. (http://www.studymode.com)

Protein SCI/241 Protein A protein are organic compounds that made up of amino acids and are the building blocks of the cells in the body. Every cell in the body requires proteins to grow and repair themselves so these proteins are necessary for a healthy body and survival. Having so much protein can hurt your body so when you consume so much can get you sick and the right size of protein can keep you from getting sick. They’re five types of protein in everything that we eat. The largest class

The biochemical importance of water Sam Ellick 13/11/2010 Water otherwise known as H2O is a necessity for life to exist. It has many unique features compared to other molecules of its size. For example solid ice is less dense than liquid ice‚ which ponds and lakes freeze from the top down. This is important in insulating the aquatic life in the winter. This essay however will be looking at why water is so important in biochemical terms. Its shape Water‚ as its formula H2O suggests‚ consists

environmental nutrient levels is critical for life. Yeast cells‚ such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae‚ have the ability to sense and adapt to nutrient levels in their external and internal environment. This ability to sense and adapt to nutrient levels play an essential role in their survival‚ such as to regulate many physiological processes like‚ metabolism‚ cell development‚ cell proliferation‚ protein synthesis‚ translation‚ and cell death; autophagy. One main sensor for nutrient sensing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
