Lipid

Macromolecules Macromolecules are complex carbon based molecules that all have different functions and monomers, there are four different groups of macromolecules that include, Nucleic Acids, Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Lipids. Carbohydrates are polymers made from monosaccharides, which are simple sugars like glucose and fructose, these are used as a good source of energy. Monosaccharides, the monomer of carbohydrates, are just one sugar unit, they are the simplest form of carbohydrates, but…

Respiration (Growth vs Maintenance Respiration) Plant respiration is the metabolic link between gross primary productivity and net primary productivity. It is also a large component of a plant's carbon budget; perhaps typically 50-70% of carbon assimilated in gross primary productivity is released back to the atmosphere as CO2 during subsequent plant respiration (Amthor and Baldocchi, 2001). Growth is the conversion of temporary pools of substrates such as carbohydrates and amides into new…

the ER that is studded with ribosomes is called the rough ER (RER). Proteins generated in the rough ER are trafficked to or across the plasma membrane. The region of the ER that lacks ribosomes is called the smooth ER (SER). The smooth ER makes lipids, hormones, and steroids and breaks down toxic chemicals. Rough ER looks like sheets or disks of bumpy membranes while smooth ER looks more like tubes. Rough ER is called rough because it has ribosomes attached to its surface. (MAGLOIRE, K 2016)…

information you can choose which you think is the most likely to be how organic molecules were created.with the Primordial Soup it was said that monomers could be made from some of the gases in the atmosphere. Iron-Sulfur says that because of the lipids on some of the pyrites we gained a cell membrane, and the first primitive cell. Deep-Sea Vents states that proton and sodium ions can create organic molecules. Community Clay it is said that within the clay the structural DNA crystallizes to…

scientists found that Hepatitis C was the result of nearly every case of hepatitis that wasn't Hep-A or Hep-B. The Virus once contracted gets into the bloodstream and attacks the cells of the liver. It mutates the cells by fusing the virus’ fatty lipid by layer to the cell membrane. Then once it merges then the cell forms around the virus and takes…

1. What are the probable implications of this suspected diagnosis? This usually presents ages 3-24 months, prolonged fasting or infections, which cause-decreased appetite, increased energy requirements, and a fever. Sudden death is usually the first implication. 2. How urgent is it to contact this family to ask them to bring the baby to a pediatric emergency center or emergency room? Extremely Urgent, because People with MCAD deficiency are at risk of serious complications such as seizures,…

correct some errors of the DNA genes and RNA (Harvard.edu). On the contrary, eating enormous amounts of red meat can provoke or increase the risk to having diseases like Diabetes type II. lamb and goat meats are an example of meats rich in fat and lipids that increase the risk of high blood pressure, myocardial infarctions, and increased cholesterol in the blood and liver. A small portion of meat in a meal does not affect the human mechanism, is that why is so important to combine the meat with…

Animal Physiology As the meaning of word ’anatomy’ is the biological form of an animal, physiology means the biological function of an animal. Animal physiology differs in several ways from animal to animal, but all animals share some principal functions. Such functions are attaining nutrients, performing osmoregulation and excretion, and protecting themselves against pathogens. Animals manage these actions by exchanging with the environment. Exchanging is the action when substances in an…

Treadmill Training for a Healthy Body and Mind A hectic lifestyle, over work loads, multitasking and unhealthy junk food and time constraints may all be taking a toll on your fitness levels. Therefore, you might have been compromising on your health thus keeping yourself totally unfit. Do you realise that this aspect can pose a serious risk for developing life threatening illnesses that can shorten your lifespan? However, if you have been feeling guilty of neglecting your fitness programmes,…

Steroids, the popular name for synthetic substances related to the male hormones, promote muscle growth and the development of male characteristics. Steroid is a terpenoid lipid characterized by a carbon skeleton with four fused rings, generally arranged in a 6-6-6-5 fashion. Anabolic steroids also have androgenic and virilizing properties, including the development and maintenance of masculine characteristics such as the growth of the vocal cords and body hair.Anabolic steroids were developed…
