Where is glycogen stored? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔liver and skeletal muscles
What process is right after eating and blood sugar is high? - 🧠 ANSWER
✔✔glycogenesis
What process is a while after eating and blood sugar is low? - 🧠 ANSWER

release energy
used to synthesize other molecules
converted to energy storage molecules

, What is metabolic rate influenced by? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔muscular activity,
age, gender, body surface area, environmental temperature
How is metabolic rate influenced by muscle? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the more
muscle you have, the faster your metabolic rate is
How is metabolic rate influenced by age? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the older you
get, the slower your metabolic rate gets
How is metabolic rate influenced by gender? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔males have
a faster metabolic rate due to testosterone, because testosterone breaks
down fat
females have a slower metabolic rate due to estrogen because estrogen
stores fat
use of proteins to generate movement (muscles, cilia)
muscle contraction - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔mechanical
formation of chemical bonds (anabolism)
building proteins - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔chemical
moving molecules across membranes (active transport, endo/exocytosis)
active transport of molecules - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔transport
