What else can I help you with?
Is a peptide bigger than a protein?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and as such are always smaller than them. No amino acids are the building blocks to protein, so that is like asking if a brick (the amino acid) is bigger than the wall (the protein).
Describe how glucose molecules enter a cell by facilitated diffusion?
protein
What is bigger protein or a triglyceride?
Yes.
Name the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood?
Insulin is the protein that controls the amount of sugar in the blood. It is produced by the pancreas and helps regulate blood sugar levels by promoting the uptake of glucose from the blood into cells for energy.
Why absorption rate of galactose is more than glucose?
The absorption rate of galactose is higher than glucose because galactose is transported into enterocytes by a secondary active transport mechanism that involves a carrier protein, which allows for faster absorption. In contrast, glucose is primarily absorbed through facilitated diffusion, which is a slower process.
Is insulin or glucose bigger?
An insulin molecule is much bigger than a glucose molecule.
What molecule is larger glucose or albumin?
Glucose molecules are larger than water molecules.
Is glucose the smallest type of protein?
Glucose is not a protein, it is a carbohydrate.
Does protein contain glucose?
No, protein does not contain glucose. Protein is made up of amino acids, while glucose is a type of sugar that is a source of energy for the body.
Is a peptide bigger than a protein?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and as such are always smaller than them. No amino acids are the building blocks to protein, so that is like asking if a brick (the amino acid) is bigger than the wall (the protein).
Is Starch molecules bigger than protein molecules?
Yes, starch molecules are generally larger than protein molecules. Starch is a polysaccharide made up of many glucose molecules linked together, while proteins are composed of amino acids linked in chains. This difference in molecular structure contributes to the varying sizes of the molecules.
What can be converted to glucose if your diet is insufficient?
protein would be converted into glucose.
Is glucose a fat protein or carbohydrate?
glucose is the sugar in your blood.
Can protein be converted into glucose in the body?
Yes, protein can be converted into glucose in the body through a process called gluconeogenesis.
Can protein be converted to glucose in the body?
Yes, protein can be converted to glucose in the body through a process called gluconeogenesis.
What explains the presence of the glucose in the urine?
Protein does occur naturally in the urine of humans. This is normally no more than 150mg per day. I am assuming you mean >150mg of protein per day. If someone has more than 150mg of protein in their urine per day it can mean several things: it can be a result of an infection, diabetes, kidney disease, medication side effect, and many, many more.
Which mineral is glucose mixed with to make protein?
There is no "mineral" mixed with glucose to make proteins.
