Which nutrient is a key component in cell membranes neurons and certain hormones?
Phospholipids are the key component in cell membranes, while phosphorus is essential for neurons. Cholesterol is vital for the structure and function of cell membranes and is a precursor for certain hormones, such as steroid hormones.
What cells to store energy from biological membranes and chemical messengers?
Adipocytes, also known as fat cells, are found in biological membranes and are responsible for storing energy in the form of triglycerides. Additionally, certain hormones and chemical messengers, such as insulin and leptin, play a role in regulating the storage and release of energy in adipocytes.
What is the porous structure through which molecules pass?
The porous structure through which molecules pass is called a membrane. Membranes are semi-permeable barriers that allow certain substances to cross while blocking others based on their size, charge, or solubility. These membranes play a crucial role in various biological processes, such as nutrient uptake, signaling, and waste removal.
Can inhibit blood flow?
Vasoconstrictors such as certain medications or hormones can inhibit blood flow by narrowing blood vessels. This can lead to reduced oxygen and nutrient delivery to tissues, affecting their normal function. In severe cases, it can result in tissue damage or organ dysfunction.
What is the name given to membranes that only allow certain materials to pass though them?
semipermeable

What is the nutrient that forms a coating on nerves?
The class of nutrient that is necessary for production of certain hormones and that forms a coating on nerves is
The class of nutrient that is necessary for production of certain hormones and that forms a coating on nerves is?
fat
How do you some hormones affect only certain cells in the body but not others?
These cells have specific types of receptors on their membranes.
What class of nutrient produces certain hormones and forms a coating on nerves?
Lipids, specifically phospholipids, are the class of nutrient that can produce certain hormones and form a coating on nerves. These essential fats play a crucial role in cellular structure and signaling, including hormone production and nerve insulation.
What are membranes that allow only certain substances to pass through them?
Semi permeable membranes.
What nutrient substance is necessary for the production of certain hormones and helps store and transport vitamins?
This would be fats. This is why it is so important to include fats in your diet for the proper storage and hormone production in your body.
What is a lack of certain nutrient?
a deficiency
What cells to store energy from biological membranes and chemical messengers?
Adipocytes, also known as fat cells, are found in biological membranes and are responsible for storing energy in the form of triglycerides. Additionally, certain hormones and chemical messengers, such as insulin and leptin, play a role in regulating the storage and release of energy in adipocytes.
What is the name given to membranes that only allow certain materials to pass through them?
"semipermeable"
Do girls have hormones?
Yes - in fact everyone alive has hormones. Production of certain hormones increases significantly when a girl enters puberty.
