What monosaccharides make up glycogen and starch?
Sucrose is a disaccharide made of glucose and fructose. Starch is a polysaccharide that is simply a chain of glucose.
What would glycogen be converted to during catabolism?
Glycogen is a long branched chain of glucose so when catabolized it will be converted to glucose.
How would an animal release their extra stored sugar?
Extra sugar is stored as glycogen in animals. Some glycogen is stored in muscles, if they need fuel they can use the glycogen available locally. When glycogen needs to be converted back to glucose for fuel, a series of enzymes work together to complete the task.
What is a glucomer?
If anything, it would be a polymer of monomers of glucose: either cellulose in plants or glycogen in animals.
Is glycogen stored in muscle cells is used primarily to provide glucose for red blood cells?
Doubtful. One would think that any glycogen stored in muscle cells would be producing mitochondrial ATP for use in the sarcomere, the muscle contraction unit.
What effect would increase levels of gglucagon have on the amount of glycogen stored in the liver?
Increased levels of glucagon stimulate the conversion of glycogen to glucose in the liver, which would in turn reduce the amount of glycogen in the liver.
What monosaccharides make up glycogen and starch?
Sucrose is a disaccharide made of glucose and fructose. Starch is a polysaccharide that is simply a chain of glucose.
What force a substance that reduces friction and makes objects slide past each other?
That substance is called a lubricant. An example would be oil.
What would glycogen be converted to during catabolism?
Glycogen is a long branched chain of glucose so when catabolized it will be converted to glucose.
The nutrient that makes up the greatest percentage of the body is?
Nutrient? That would be fat. But if you mean substance, that would be water.
What is excess glucose stored as?
glycogen
What will you expect to happen if glucose levels in the blood are low?
A(glycogen would be broken down into glucose b(insulin would be secreted by the pancreas c(glycogen would be formed d(cholesterol would be synthesized this are the answer
Would blood serum contain starch or glycogen?
starch
What is used to represent a repeating decimal?
A repeating decimal is represented by a horizontal line over the repeating part.So for example .3255555555..... would be __.3255and .33333333..... would be __.33
Is there such a thing as a repeating decimal that has a non-repeating decimal after it?
No, because repeating decimals never stop repeating, so it would be impossible to have a different number that does not repeat.
What is an example of a repeating decimal?
A repeating decimal is just a decimal that repeats. An example would be 6.575757... Repeating decimals are infinite.
How would an animal release their extra stored sugar?
Extra sugar is stored as glycogen in animals. Some glycogen is stored in muscles, if they need fuel they can use the glycogen available locally. When glycogen needs to be converted back to glucose for fuel, a series of enzymes work together to complete the task.
