What else can I help you with?
What is a Highly branched arrangement of glucose molecules found in liver and skeletal muscle cells?
Glycogen is a highly branched arrangement of glucose molecules found in liver and skeletal muscle cells. It serves as a storage form of glucose, which can be quickly broken down to provide energy when needed by the body.
How is carbohydrate stored in the liver and muscle?
Carbohydrates are stored in the liver and muscles as glycogen.
What carbohydrate molecule do you find in liver?
Glycogen is a common carbohydrate found in animal liver.
What level of a organization is seen in the liver but not in skeletal muscle fibers?
tissue
Does the pituatary gland store glycogen?
No, glycogen is stored by the liver and skeletal muscle
Where does glycogen occur in the body?
In humans, glycogen is synthesized primarily in the liver and skeletal muscle.
Where in your Body can the smooth muscle cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle be found?
smooth muscle- internal organs Cardiac muscle- only in the heart Skeletal muscle- attached to bones in your arms, legs, hands, and face
Where is Aspartate aminotransferase found?
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is found primarily in the liver, heart, skeletal muscle, kidneys, brain, and red blood cells. It plays a key role in amino acid metabolism and catalyzes the transfer of an amino group to alpha-ketoglutarate to form glutamate and oxaloacetate. High levels of AST in the blood may indicate liver or heart damage.
If Glycogen used to store energy in the liver and muscle tissue is an example of which type of molecule?
Carbohydrate
Which organs carbohydrate stores deplete with long term aerobic exercise?
your liver, especially when low on muscle glycogen
Which tissues are not insulin dependent?
Yes, the brain, kidneys and intestines
Muscle cells when an individual is excerising heavily and when the muscle becomes oxygen deprived convert pyruvate to lactate What happens to the lactate in the skeletal muscle cells?
The lactate is taken to the liver and converted back to pyruvate.
