I have a few questions I'm having trouble with, maybe if you guys could please help me out, thank yoo~! ^w^ 1. How many molecules are central to converting the nutrients we gain from eating our food into a form of energy our bodies can use easily?

2. What is it in the food we eat that makes eating such a necessary habit?

3. What are the biomacromolecules in our body?

4. What is the first law of thermodynamics and how does it relate to eating?

5. What is cellular metabolism?

6. Do proteins, sugars, and fats end in common pathways?

1)

2)Keep more fruits, low-fat dairy products (low-fat milk and low-fat yogurt), vegetables, and whole-grain foods at home and at work. Focus on adding healthy food to your diet, rather than just taking unhealthy foods away. Try to eat a family meal every day at the kitchen or dining table.

3)Biomacromolecules are large biological polymers, such as nucleic acids, proteins and carbohydrates, that are made up of monomers linked together. For example, proteins are composed of monomers called amino acids.

4)The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and thermodynamic processes are therefore subject to the principle of conservation of energy. This means that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed

5)Cellular metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms in order to maintain life. Cellular metabolism involves complex sequences of controlled biochemical reactions, better known as metabolic pathways.

6)Sugars, such as galactose, fructose, and glycogen, are catabolized into new products in order to enter the glycolytic pathway.

the principle of segregation describes how pairs of gene variants are separated into reproductive cells. from his data, mendel formulated the principle of segregation. we now know that the segregation of genes occurs during meiosis in eukaryotes, which is a process that produces reproductive cells called gametes.
