Hormones, toxins, ammonia, and bilirubin.
The liver removes used-up insulin and other hormones from the bloodstream, breaks down toxins (and medications), turns ammonia into urea to be processed by the kidney, and adds glucuronic acid to bilirubin (a byproduct of damaged red blood cells) in order to turn it into bile so that it can be concentrated in the gallbladder and used to emulsify fats.
Peroxisomes are organelles that play a role in breaking down fatty acids and detoxifying harmful substances like hydrogen peroxide. They also participate in the synthesis of certain lipids and contribute to the process of metabolizing various molecules in the cell.
The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help break down fats during digestion.
The liver, pancreas, and small intestine are involved in the chemical and physical changes of fat in the body. The liver produces bile, which helps break down fat globules into smaller droplets. The pancreas releases enzymes that further break down the fats into absorbable molecules in the small intestine.
Each catalase molecule can break down one molecule of hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, at least 10 catalase molecules would be needed to break down 10 molecules of hydrogen peroxide.
The enzymes like pepsin break down the proteins and not the other molecules because they are themselves protein.
Bile is produced by the liver that helps it break down fats.
The gallbladder's main purpose is to help break down fat molecules. It also helps to store bile that is produced by the liver.
The Liver
The liver produces bile to break down fatty foods.
Yes, hydrolysis requires energy to break down molecules.
they break down larger molecules If a cell organisation is disturbed , lysosomes break down and digest.
Enzymes break down soap molecules.
The organelle that breaks down lipids is the lysosome. Lysosomes contain enzymes that break down various molecules, including lipids, into smaller components that can be recycled or excreted by the cell.
Peroxisomes are organelles that play a role in breaking down fatty acids and detoxifying harmful substances like hydrogen peroxide. They also participate in the synthesis of certain lipids and contribute to the process of metabolizing various molecules in the cell.
the parts of food that the liver can not break down are converted into bad fats
Explain the digestive functions of the liver?
The liver produces bile for the emulsification of lipids (break down the fats).
