What else can I help you with?
Aged and damaged erythrocytes are broken down by the?
Age and damaged (senescent) red blood cells (erythrocytes) are broken down and recycled by the spleen, although the liver also plays an important role.
Where does epinephrine excreted?
Epinephrine is primarily broken down by the liver and excreted in the urine. It can also be deactivated by enzymes in the blood and tissues.
What is heme broken down to?
Heme is broken down into biliverdin, which is then converted into bilirubin by enzymes. Bilirubin is then excreted from the body through bile production and elimination in the feces.
When amino acids are broken down they lose their amine groups?
Yes, when amino acids are broken down through the process of deamination, they lose their amine (NH2) groups. This reaction converts the amino group into ammonia (NH3), which is then excreted from the body as waste.
Why is the waste UREA made in your body?
when your liver assimilates proteins the excess is broken down into urea which is then excreted in urine.
Where most drugs are broken down?
Most drugs are broken down in the liver through a process called drug metabolism. This process involves enzymes in the liver converting the drug into metabolites that can be eliminated from the body. The metabolites are then excreted through the kidneys in the urine.
Where is protein broken down is the digestive system?
The protein that breaks down food in your digestive system is called bile. It is excreted from the pancreas which breaks down your food in your stomach. Jason Gr.6
In the metabolism of amino acids for energy what is the fate of the amino group?
During amino acid metabolism for energy, the amino group is removed from the amino acid through deamination, forming ammonia. The ammonia is then converted into urea in the liver and excreted in the urine, while the remaining carbon skeleton of the amino acid can be further broken down to generate energy through pathways like the citric acid cycle.
How to get a prescription drug out of the body?
Depends on how the drug is metabolized (broken down) and/or excreted (eliminated) from the body. Some drugs are broken down by the liver, then eliminated in your urine or feces. Some drugs are not broken down at all and may be eliminated in your urine or feces. Therefore you would need to provide which drug(s) you are referring to.
How do minerals get broken down in the body?
Minerals in food are broken down in the digestive system by stomach acid and enzymes. Once broken down, minerals are absorbed into the bloodstream through the small intestine and transported to cells for various functions in the body. Excess minerals are excreted by the kidneys in urine.
Do you poop out mucus if you swallow it?
No, swallowing mucus does not typically result in it being excreted in feces. Mucus is broken down and digested in the stomach like other food substances.
Where is food stored before it is excreted?
The Large Intestine does not store any food, it absrobs the nutrients from the food
