What is the function of a mitochondira?
Produce ATP and Energy.It is the power house of cell. It conducts respiration and produce energy
What are three active transport pumps that function in biological systems?
Proton or hydrogen pump, which is necessary to maitain the normal pH of the stomach. Calcium pump, which is important in nerve and muscle function. And sodium-potassiumpump, which is integral in cellular metabolism.
Vitamins function in the body to?
Vitamins function in the body to aid in energy metabolism.
Which of the following is a function common to both copper and selenium?
Both play a role in protecting cells from oxidative damage.
What are the vesicles that function in the metabolism of fatty acids in a cell?
peroxisomes
What is the function of the inter membrane space of chloroplast?
Its main function is oxidative phosphorylation.
What is the function of dehydrogenase?
dehydrogenase is an enzyme which transfers hydrogen ions from a substrate to an activator.Example are activators are NAD+ and FAD+.
What is rigor and its function?
Rigor has no function it is a reaction to the exhaustion of oxygen supply to the dying tissue. The release of myosin-actin requires ATP derived from oxidative metabolism the end result is a rigidity.
What bodily function does metabolism affect?
all the above
What is function of midpiece of sperm cell?
Middle piece is formed of mitochondiral spiral , nebenkern around the proximal part of axoneme. The mitochondria are the carriers of the oxidative enzymes and the enzymes which are responsible for oxidative phosphorylation. So the middle piece is the power house of a sperm
What is the difference between substrate level phosphorylation and chemiosmosis?
substrate level phosphorylation does not involve (electron transport chain), oxidative phosphorylation does. Substrate level phosphorylation involves the direct transfer of phosphate from a phosphate bearing molecule to ADP, thus yielding ATP. In cellular respiration, oxidative phosphorylation requires a protein, ATP synthase, to channel energy provided by a concentration of H ions; this energy results in the combining of phosphate with ADP.
What are the two types of phosphorylation that occur during photosynthesis?
Yes. Although the primary function of photosynthesis isn't to create ATP, photophosphorylation does create some ATP molecules which the plants can use in addition to those made in the mitochondria.

What metabolism requires the use of oxygen?
Aerobic metabolism requires oxygen to function.
Why are vitamins necessary in the deit?
Because the main function is to regulate the human metabolism and maintain normal physiological functions.this is small in quantity but very essential to human body
What is the overall chemical function of the body?
METABOLISM
