Similarly, WAT, which serves as the primary energy storage organ in mammals, can undergo thermogenic beige adipocyte recruitment, a phenomenon referred to as browning. Activation of BAT and ...
Glucose is a vital source of energy for all mammals. The balance between glucose uptake, metabolism and storage determines the energy status of an individual, and perturbations ...
Humans extract this energy from three classes of fuel molecules: carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Here we describe how the three main classes of nutrients are metabolized in …
Abstract. Maintenance of systemic homeostasis and the response to nutritional and environmental challenges require the coordination of multiple organs and tissues. To respond to various metabolic ...
Matthew Clark. Like bulbs, corms are underground storage structures that have evolved in some plants. Corms are a storage unit made of compressed stems, unlike the leaves that provide the storage function in bulbs. Because they are stems, corms have nodes, internodes, and meristems just like above-ground stems.

Mechanical Digestion. The gizzard, or ventriculus, is the second part of the avian stomach. Here, birds grind up the food using small gastroliths or ''gizzard stones'' and powerful contractions from the muscular walls of the gizzard. A rough, horny lining called koilin further adds to the abrasive power of this digestive organ.
