What is Glycolysis?00:56

What is Glycolysis?

148.4K
Overview
Cells make energy by breaking down macromolecules. Cellular respiration is the biochemical process that converts "food energy" (from the chemical bonds of macromolecules) into chemical energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The first step of this tightly regulated and intricate process is glycolysis. The word glycolysis originates from the Latin glyco (sugar) and lysis (breakdown). Glycolysis serves two main intracellular functions: generating ATP and generating...

What is Monogastric Digestion?

56.5K
The human body contains a monogastric digestive system. In a monogastric digestive system, the stomach only contains one chamber in which it digests food. Several other animal species also have monogastric digestive systems, including pigs, horses, dogs, and birds. This chapter, however, focuses on the human digestive system.

Carbohydrate Digestion00:57

Carbohydrate Digestion

97.2K
Carbohydrate digestion and metabolism break down simple and complex carbohydrates from food into saccharides (i.e., sugars) for the body to use as energy. Carbohydrate digestion starts in the mouth during mastication, or chewing. The masticated carbohydrates remain intact in the stomach. Digestion resumes in the duodenum of the small intestine, where pancreatic alpha-amylase and brush border enzymes of the microvilli convert complex carbohydrates to monosaccharides. Finally, the monosaccharides...

Gustation01:43

Gustation

43.5K
Gustation is a chemical sense that, along with olfaction (smell), contributes to our perception of taste. It starts with the activation of receptors by chemical compounds (tastants) dissolved in the saliva. The saliva and filiform papillae on the tongue distribute the tastants and increase their exposure to the taste receptors.

Gas Exchange and Transport01:20

Gas Exchange and Transport

73.6K
Gas exchange, the intake of molecular oxygen (O2) from the environment and the outflow of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the environment, is necessary for cellular function. Gas exchange during respiration occurs largely via the movement of gas molecules along pressure gradients. Gas travels from areas of higher partial pressure to areas of lower partial pressure. In mammals, gas exchange occurs in the alveoli of the lungs, which are adjacent to capillaries and share a membrane with them.

Allosteric Regulation01:08

Allosteric Regulation

53.3K
Allosteric regulation of enzymes occurs when the binding of an effector molecule to a site that is different from the active site causes a change in the enzymatic activity. This alternate site is called an allosteric site, and an enzyme can contain more than one of these sites. Allosteric regulation can either be positive or negative, resulting in an increase or decrease in enzyme activity. Most enzymes that display allosteric regulation are metabolic enzymes involved in the degradation or...

    Summary

    Modern science should prioritize social, educational, and economic impacts over publication metrics. This perspective emphasizes understanding the broader influence of research and researchers.

    Area of Science:

    • Scientific research evaluation
    • Societal impact of science

    Background:

    • Current scientific assessment heavily relies on publication and citation counts.
    • There is a growing need to evaluate research impact beyond traditional bibliometrics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To advocate for a shift in scientific evaluation towards broader societal, educational, and economic impacts.
    • To highlight the importance of understanding the 'true colors' or full impact of scientific endeavors.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative reflection on scientific assessment criteria.
    • Metaphorical comparison of a scientist to a spectrofluorometer to illustrate the desire for in-depth impact analysis.

    Main Results:

    • The current system of evaluating scientists and research is insufficient.
