Bonds in a protein's tertiary structure occur entirely between the highly variable R-groups of the amino acyl residues. Firstly, hydrogen bonds further to those in the secondary structure may form between th...

Aerobic respiration needs oxygen. It is the release of a relatively large amount of energy in cells by the breakdown of food substances in the presence of oxygen: glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water Ae...

Glycolysis- This is the first step which occurs in the cytosol. glucose broken down into pyruvate yielding 2 net atp and 2 pyruvate molecules per glucose. This is the only step in anaerobic respiration. Link...

By neurotransmitters. At a neuromuscular junction, the neurotransmitter is Acetylcholine released from vesicles in the pre-synaptic neurone. Receptors on the muscle cell surface bind acetylcholine in the pro...
