In the pancreas, lipase converts fat to:
glycerol and fatty acids |
|
simple sugars |
|
complex carbohydrates |
|
amino acids |
The acids produced by the pancreas contain several enzymes that aid in digestion. Lipase converts fat to glycerol and fatty acids. Pancreatic amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Trypsin converts polypeptides (the building blocks of protein) into amino acids.
Cellular fermentation takes place:
in plant cells |
|
anaerobically |
|
aerobically |
|
in the presence of oxygen |
If no oxygen is present, cellular respiration is anaerobic and will result in fermentation where either lactic acid or alcohol is used instead of oxygen.
In a eukaryotic cell, which organelles deal with proteins?
Golgi apparatus |
|
endoplasmic reticulum |
|
all of these deal with proteins |
|
ribosomes |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles. Ribosomes produce proteins, endoplasmic reticulum helps synthesize proteins and fats, and Golgi apparatus prepares proteins for use.
Which of these digestive enzymes is not produced by the pancreas?
trypsin |
|
pancreatic amylase |
|
gastric acid |
|
lipase |
The acids produced by the pancreas contain several enzymes that aid in digestion. Lipase converts fat to glycerol and fatty acids. Pancreatic amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Trypsin converts polypeptides (the building blocks of protein) into amino acids.
"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
fourth |
|
first |
|
second |
|
third |
Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
