Cell Metabolism
We all use energy to survive. Metabolism is the total of all the chemical reactions an organism needs to survive, either plant or animal. Photosynthesis and glycolysis are necessary to life. These are intertwined with each other. There are a number of cycles involved, the basic one is the carbon cycle. There are also smaller cycles within the larger cycle.
500 Questions
Why do old people shiver in winter?
Asked by Wiki User
As people age, their bodies may become less efficient at regulating temperature due to changes in metabolism and circulation. This can cause them to feel colder and shiver more in response to colder temperatures. Additionally, older adults may have less body fat and muscle mass, which can make them more sensitive to changes in temperature.
The role of ATP in cell metabolism?
Asked by Wiki User
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) plays a critical role in cell metabolism as the primary energy currency of the cell. It serves as an immediate source of energy for cellular processes, such as muscle contraction, active transport of ions across cell membranes, and synthesis of macromolecules. ATP is produced through cellular respiration and is broken down into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate to release energy for cellular work.

What is the structure and the function of the plasma membrane?
Asked by Wiki User
It has selective permeability (allows it to control what comes in and out of the cell) and it isolates the cytoplasm.

Carbon is a non metal element. Atomic number of it is 6.
Which molecule is common to the metabolism of carbohydrates fatty acids amino acids and alcohol?
Asked by Lesliepacheco984
The metabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids, amino acids, and alcohol produces the same molecule for energy: ATP (adenosine triphoshate).
What metabolism requires the use of oxygen?
Asked by Wiki User
Aerobic metabolism requires oxygen to function.
What is the watery matherial which contains many of the materials involved in cell metabolism?
Asked by Wiki User
What is the by product of cell metabolism?
Asked by Wiki User
Simply put, the waste products of celluar respiration are CO2 and water. We exhale the CO2 and some of the water, and other excess water is filtered into the urine by the kidneys.
