What organelle converts glucose into glycogen?
The organelle responsible for converting glucose into glycogen is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER).SER is involved in glycogen synthesis in liver and muscle cells by synthesizing and storing glycogen granules in response to insulin signaling.
Where proteins made of?
Proteins are made of amino acids.
Where are ribosomes made in the cell?
Ribosomes are made in the nucleolus of the cell.
Where is tRNA made in the cell?
tRNA is made in the nucleus of the cell.
What type of tissue are bones ligaments and tendons made of?
Bones are made of osseous tissue, ligaments are made of fibrous connective tissue, and tendons are made of dense regular connective tissue.
Is glucogen an example of an isotope?
Glycogen is a compound. Anybody ever hear of glucogen.
Which gland converts glycogen to glucose?
Glucogen
Where is glycogen turned to glucogen at?
The pancreas secretes "glucagon," not glucogen, to reverse hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) which then turns stored glycogen from the liver into glucose.
How are glucose and glucogen related?
i think you mean glycogen...and they both have to do with sugar.
What is the function of insulin and glucogen?
Insulin decrease body glucose level.Glucogon increases body glucose level.
Where is glucogen stored?
Glucose is stored as glycogen in muscles and liver.
Explain how the blood sugar gets back to normal from being low?
Your blood sugar will become low once you are fasting, and when that happens the alpha cells of the islets of Langerhans will allow glucogen to be release. Glucogen promotes the conversions of glycogen to glucose, which is released into the blood. As glycogen is converted to glucose in the liver the blood sugar level returns to normal.
The liver store glucose in what form?
Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles, and is second to fats as long-term energy storage.
What does glucagon do?
Glucagon is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels by promoting the release of stored glucose from the liver when blood sugar levels are low. It works in opposition to insulin, which lowers blood sugar levels by promoting its uptake into cells.
How much sugar is in apeach?
there is approximately 10 mg/dL of galactose, 1.2 picograms of dextrose, 5 nanograms of glucogen, and 259 hectagrams autographacalifornica multinucleocapsid nucleopolyhedros virus
What is a polysacharide?
These are very important in healthy diets as they are not broken down into glucose. The glucose molecules that make up NSP are different to the starch/glucogen glucose due to the position of an OH - group. Cellulose is the most common NSP. It is made up of 1000`s of B- Glucose which enyzmes cannot separate.
What organs need carbs?
Your muscles and liver use glucose to make glucogen, your brain uses them for energy and to power your Central Nervous System, and your cells and tissues use them to help with growth.
