The cytokine describes the group of proteins such as interferons and interleukins that regulate cell communication, mainly produced by the immune system in normal and pathological conditions.

<h3>What is a cytokine?</h3>

They are messenger molecules with a glycoprotein structure, whose lifetime is short and generally secreted in cascades.

They are produced by different activated cells, responsible for innate and/or acquired immunity, and regulate the immune and inflammatory response.

Therefore, we can conclude that the cytokine describes the group of proteins that regulate cell communication, mainly produced by the immune system in normal and pathological conditions.

What pathologic change occurs to the kidneys glomeruli as a result of hypertension?
shusha [124]
<span>Interstitial fibrosis and glomeruli tubular atrophy are pathological effects of hypertension on kidneys. This is especially as a result of hyalinization that results in sclerosis to the glomeruli which may ultimately lead to kidney failure if unmanaged. The hyaline accumulate in the nephron tubules resulting in protein in urine. The plaque build up in the kidneys, as a result, causes glomerular ischemia   </span>

During the absorptive state, metabolism adjusts to either provide energy for immediate use or store excess energy to be used lat
Effectus [21]

Answer:

A. Catabolic

B.Anabolic.

C. Anabolic

D. Catabolic.

E.Anabolic

F. Catabolic

G. Anabolic

H. Catabolic

Explanation:

Catabolic process is a metabolic processes that breakdown complex or larger molecules into smaller sizes by releasing energy.

The examples of such metabolic processes are;

Glucose is used as the primary fuel for energy

Dietary carbohydrate from a meal is digested and absorbed as monosaccharides, mainly glucose

Dietary protein from a meal is digested and absorbed as single amino acids.

Fatty acids are used as fuel sources for some tissues.

All this processes are catabolic processes because large molecules are broken to smaller ones and all this processes release energy.

Anabolic process is a metabolic process where smaller molecular are build up to form larger molecules and this requires the input of energy.

Examples are;

Glucose is used as the primary fuel for energy

Excess glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and muscle.

Excess glucose is converted to fatty acids and stored as part of the triglyceride molecule in adipose tissue

Excess tatty acids combine with glycerol to form which are stored in adipose tissues.

All these processes requires the build up of smaller molecules to larger molecules and requires input of energy.
