The smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Lysosomes are cell structures associated with the breakdown of harmful substances or substances that are no longer needed by the cell. They contain enzymes that help break down these materials for recycling or disposal.
Mitochondria Lysomes, vacuoles, and peroxisomes play a role in the breakdown of substances that are no longer needed by the cell while the mitochondria does not. Mitochondria is used for the production of ATP.
Eliminating waste products refers to the removal or reduction of substances that are no longer needed or are harmful to the body. This process helps maintain balance and efficiency in the body's various systems and supports overall health and well-being.
The liver is primarily responsible for producing substances needed by the body, such as bile for digestion and certain proteins for blood clotting. It also plays a key role in metabolizing drugs and detoxifying harmful substances.
Glucose and oxygen are needed for respiration. All other substances are not needed.
Advantages are: - it uses less energy and is less likely to experience harmful mutation during reproduction - it enables the body to absorb a large amount of the needed substances in food
CO2 and water is needed. Oxygen and glucose are produced
When molecules are no longer needed, cells can break them down through processes like metabolism or excrete them from the body, depending on the type of molecule. This allows the cell to maintain homeostasis and prevent accumulation of unnecessary substances.
CO2 and water is needed. Oxygen and glucose are produced
Harmful particles are typically destroyed in a cell by the lysosomes, which contain enzymes that break down various materials. These enzymes can degrade proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and other molecules that are no longer needed or are harmful to the cell.
Enzymes in biological systems are broken down by other enzymes called proteases. These proteases help regulate the activity of enzymes by breaking them down when they are no longer needed.
Metabolic wastes are substances that are left over, after oxygen and nutrients have been supplied to a cell, and must be excreted. These are substances such as water, carbon dioxide, sodium chloride and soluble nitrogenous salts, which are excreted in urine, feces, and exhaled air.
