Does the cell store starch and fat in the nucleus?
No, the cell does not store starch and fat in the nucleus. Starch is stored in the chloroplasts of plant cells, while fat is typically stored in specialized organelles called lipid droplets within the cell. The nucleus primarily houses the cell's genetic material in the form of DNA.
How is a fat cell specialised?
A fat cell, or adipocyte, is specialized in storing energy in the form of triglycerides. It contains a large lipid droplet in the cytoplasm, which can expand in size to store excess energy. Fat cells also secrete hormones that regulate metabolism and appetite.
Fat cell How is it adapted to its cell function?
-They have very little cytoplasm which gives it room to store fat -They have very few mitochondria (parts of the cell where respiration happens to produce energy) as they use very little energy -They can expand 1000 times larger from their normal size as it fills with fat Hope you find it useful
What is the specific job of a fat cell?
The fat cells store excess energy from food. Fat cells are highly active. They provide triglycerides, keep the body warm, support and cushion vital organs, and help the body use carbohydrates and protein.
At what age aaprox does fat cell production stop?
Fat cell production does not stop at any age. You can create new fat cells throughout your entire lifetime. If you have an unhealthy diet this forces your body to create new fat cells to store the excess fat in; once these fat cells are created they never leave your body, they will only shrink.
How does the structure of the fat cell help with its function?
A fat cell is a round cell. The structure of the fat cell that helps the cell function is the shape allows the fat cell to accumulate a lot of lipids.
Is fat nucleic acid?
No, fat is not a nucleic acid. Fat, known scientifically as lipids, are molecules that store energy and provide structure to cell membranes. Nucleic acids, on the other hand, such as DNA and RNA, are molecules that store genetic information and are crucial for protein synthesis.
