Researchers estimate that about 15 million people have food allergies. An allergy is an abnormal immune reaction. Some reactions may cause hives, others, may be more serious, such as, antiepileptic shock. One of the most common allergies is from food. The majority of food allergies is activated by certain proteins in, shellfish, such as; shrimp, lobster, and crab. Tree nuts such as; peanuts, walnuts, pecans. Other foods that may cause an allergic reaction are; fish, eggs, and wheat. Food…

nucleotide composition. DNA and RNA both contain purines, Adenine (A) and Guanine (G). However, DNA contains pyrimidines, Cytosine (C) and Thymine (T), whereas RNA only contains pyrimidines Guanine (G) and Uracil (U). They play a central role in metabolism, protein synthesis cell signaling. These subunits are composed of a nitrogenous base, a five- carbon sugar, and at least one phosphate group. Nucleotides are connected through phosphodiester bonds The nitrogenous base, a purine or…

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are a complementary process reaction. Their reactions tend to be the same just in reverse. While cellular respiration starts off with glucose and oxygen and ends with carbon dioxide and water, photosynthesis begins with carbon dioxide and water and ends with oxygen and glucose. The purpose for cellular respiration is to convert the energy stored in glucose into ATP and photosynthesis to convert water and carbon into glucose. To begin with cellular…

The skill I selected is acceleration because it determines how quickly the runner can reach its full. The ways APC is improving my acceleration is by power clean, and glute hamstring raises because it mostly focuses on the lower body. Power clean shows it importance by performing with a fairly high amount of weight while accelerating rapidly. This quote helps supports my evidence, “In a meta-analysis, Wilson et al. reported a significant interference effect of simultaneous AE and RT. Large…

Catalysts and Inhibitors work by providing an alternative reaction pathway for the breaking and remaking of bonds in chemical reactions, changing the speed of the reaction. They are neither consumed in the reaction. Rather, they alter the amount of activation energy required. Different reactions require different catalysts, as well as different reactions require different inhibitors. The reaction energy path controls the speed of the reaction. The molecules follow the path of least resistance,…

Blood glucose regulation is the process by which levels of blood sugar, mostly glucose, are maintained by the body. During digestion the human body breaks down carbohydrates (bread, milk, pasta, vegetables) into sugar molecules. One of these sugar molecules is glucose, the main sugar. Glucose needs to leave the bloodstream where it first inside the body enters and needs to enter cells where it will be used as energy for the body. For this to occur the beta cells in the pancreas must secrete…

substrates. In our lab we tested 3 different enzymes and substrates to find out when they are at the highest potential. Enzymes are necessary for life because they keep our bodies chemical reactions at a normal pace. Enzymes have the ability to keep a human body at homoeostasis. In our lab we were finding when the enzyme is the most active while undergoing different temperature, PH, and concentrate. Results: In our first part of our experiment we tested the affect temperature on our…

management of cancer. There still remains the need for expert judgement in formulating a cancer treatment protocol. BEFORE CANCER First, let me state that the human body will literally rust away like a nail left under the rain over time without inbuilt natural protective mechanisms. To prevent rust or oxidation, most macromolecules essential for human existence are shielded from molecular oxygen or oxygen equivalents with hydrogen molecules (reduction). Oxygen equivalents are those compounds…

kind of respiration: aerobic respiration, which consists of oxygen like humans and anaerobic respiration, it is a cellular respiration that does not need oxygen and yeast perform a fermentation. The characteristics of living things are that living things are made of cells, obtain and use energy, grow and develop, reproduce, respond to their environment and adapt to their environment. I know that humans are alive because human have cells; they use energy and obtain energy (ex, sugar); They…
