Introduction: Certain elements are essential for the functioning of the body as they play an important role in the composition of various biomolecules like protein, carbohydrates, nucleic acid, and lipids. Some elements are present in traces as they are not required in large quantities by the body. The electrolytes help in the regulation of acid-base balance in the body.

Summary Introduction

Introduction: The two major components of metabolism are anabolism and catabolism. Anabolism means the synthesis of biomolecules, whereas catabolism means the breakdown of the biomolecules.

Summary Introduction

To compare: The metabolism in various organs during the fed state and fast state.
