How does the metabolism adjust during starvation?
Your metabolism all but slows to a stop during starvation. It is trying to hold on to everything your body has got because your brain got the message that no more nourishment is coming. You will barely burn a thing if you starve yourself. Think of your metabolism as a fire: if you don't stoke the fire, and feed it oxygen, it will go out. If you don't feed your metabolism, it goes into shutdown mode.
Cellular metabolism extracts and releases energy like a wild fire?
Cellular metabolism is the process by which cells break down nutrients to produce energy in the form of ATP.
