Text
{{c1::Thermogenin (UCP-1)}} in brown fat may act as a(n) {{c2::uncoupling}} agent of oxidative phosphorylation
Extra
- Thus, brown fat produces a lot of heat; brown fat also has many more intracytoplasmic fat vacuoles and considerably more mitochondria than white adipose cells
- Brown fat comprises 5% of body mass in neonates (heat production by body fat is necessary for neonatal survival)
