Energy Metabolism
The study of the energy changes accompanying biochemical reaction Essentially Isothermic Use chemical energy to power living process
Biological system:
How an animal obtain energy from its food. It is a basic to the understand of normal nutrition and metabolism
Starvation occur when availability of energy are depleted Marasmus is a certain form of malnutrition associated with energy imbalance Obesity, caused by excess storage of surplus energy
Thyroid hormones control the rate o0f energy release (metabolic rate)
Within the total system, energy is neither lost or gained during any change However energy maybe transferred from one part to another
Entropy: is the extent of disorder or randomness of the system and becomes maximum as equilibrium is approached
Coupling

Metabolism: interconversion of chemical compounds in the body, the molecules take their individual pathway, their relationship, and the mechanisms that regulate the flow of metabolites through the pathways.
Catabolic pathway P
Food Molecule
Digestion
Simple molecule

Amphibolic pathway
Anabolic pathway
Normal metabolism include: Adaptation to period of starvation Exercise Pragnancy Lactation Abnormal metabolism may be resulted from: Nutritional deficiency Enzyme deficiency Abnormal secretion of hormones or the action of drug and toxins
