Is a peptide bigger than a protein?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and as such are always smaller than them. No amino acids are the building blocks to protein, so that is like asking if a brick (the amino acid) is bigger than the wall (the protein).
Describe how glucose molecules enter a cell by facilitated diffusion?
protein
Name the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood?
Insulin is the main regulator of blood glucose.
Is a virus bigger than a prokaryote?
Viruses are typically composed of RNA surrounded by a capsid (protein shell). This would mean by definition that the virus molecule, which is technically considered nonliving, is larger than a protein strand (because the capsid is made of protein).
What is bigger protein or a triglyceride?
Yes.
Is insulin or glucose bigger?
An insulin molecule is much bigger than a glucose molecule.
What molecule is larger glucose or albumin?
Glucose molecules are larger than water molecules.
Is glucose the smallest type of protein?
Glucose is not a protein, it is a carbohydrate.
Is sucrose molecules bigger than glucose molecules?
Yes
Is Starch molecules bigger than protein molecules?
A protein molecule is quite a bit larger than a starch molecule.
What is bigger a water molecule or carbon atom?
Glucose molecules are bigger than water molecules.
What can be converted to glucose if your diet is insufficient?
protein would be converted into glucose.
Is a peptide bigger than a protein?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and as such are always smaller than them. No amino acids are the building blocks to protein, so that is like asking if a brick (the amino acid) is bigger than the wall (the protein).
Is glucose a fat protein or carbohydrate?
glucose is the sugar in your blood.
What is the correct order by size of the following molecules water sucrose glucose and protein?
sucrose , glucose , protein , water
What explains the presence of the glucose in the urine?
Protein does occur naturally in the urine of humans. This is normally no more than 150mg per day. I am assuming you mean >150mg of protein per day. If someone has more than 150mg of protein in their urine per day it can mean several things: it can be a result of an infection, diabetes, kidney disease, medication side effect, and many, many more.
Why does glucose have more potential energy than water?
because it is bigger and can store more energy
