of them are proteins. They speed up metabolic reactions in the body but remain chemically unchanged themselves In the experiment, the enzyme amylase was involved.this enzyme takes part in the digestion ofcarbohydrate. digestion is the break down of large complex and insoluble food into small simple soluble molecules for the body to absorb it. starch is a complex, the body have to find a way to break down starch, so the body produces salivary amylase in the mouth to begin the break down of

the above study, they can demystify why some animals bodies repair tissue while others do not. This is a classic example of the trade-offs that exist between reproduction and survival. According to the author, Junsu Kang scientist have been able to identify autonomic structures used by the fish during mating which produce a signal that impedes the regeneration of pectoral fins after an injury. This study can be used to explain why some humans are able to regenerate tissue when compared to others

The Structure of a Neuron There are three basic parts of a neuron: the dendrites, the cell body and the axon. However, all neurons vary somewhat in size, shape, and characteristics depending on the function and role of the neuron. Some neurons have few dendritic branches, while others are highly branched in order to receive a great deal of information. Some neurons have short axons, while others can be quite long. The longest axon in the human body extends from the bottom of the spine to the big
