Question 1 pts
Does the relationship between muscle SERCA Ca ATPase activity and
body mass support or refute the theory that the membrane serves as
the metabolic pace maker? Briefly explain (one or two sentences will
suffice for an explanation).
Your Answer:
SERCA and body mass demonstrated no relationship that the
membrane serves as a metabolic pacemaker even though the theory
posits that membrane composition should set metabolic rate by
modulating the activity of membrane proteins. This is because the
membrane pacemaker concept fails to account for the finer membrane
