    Explain The Physiology Of Two Named Body Systems In Relation To Energy Metabolism In The Body I am going to explain the physiology of the respiratory and cardiovascular system in relation to the energy metabolism in the body. Energy metabolism is where the nutrients oxygen and glucose are took in and delivered the organs. Energy is needed in order for our body to be able to function. Energy helps break down molecules and to build new molecules. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚

    Metabolism Figure 1 above is adapted from João M‚ et al (2012) the chromatographic methodologies for analysis of cocaine and its metabolites which‚ shows the metabolic pathway of cocaine administrated. Cocaine is largely metabolized into two major metabolites benzoylecgonine (BE) and ecgonine methyl ester (EME) and two minor metabolites norcocaine (NCOC) and m- and p-hydroxycocaine (OH-COC) (Goldstein et al.‚ 2009). Benzoylecgonine is primarily produce in the liver by human carbozylerstrase type

    Proteins play an important role in the human body. The DNA molecule controls the synthesis of proteins. The DNA contains genes which are sequences of nucleotides and bases. Proteins are used for growth and repair. Proteins are made up of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Firstly ’amino acid synthesis ’ is the set of biochemical processes by which the various amino acids are produced from other compounds. The substrates for these processes are various compounds in the organism ’s diet

    Purine metabolism is central to the production of nucleotides in the body. Imbalances in this process can lead to hyperuricemia which is abnormally high levels of uric acid in the blood [>360μmol/L in females and >400μmol/L in males]. Hyperuricemia can lead to uric acid crystals precipitating in the joints‚ skin‚ vessels and other tissues‚ this is a form of inflammatory arthritis known as gout. Uric acid is a metabolite of purine metabolism therefore gout can aptly be characterized as a disorder
