Dacryoadenitis is an inflammation of the lacrimal gland that can be a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection.

Lacrimal gland is the gland responsible for lubricating eye to moisten and lubricate it. This gland is present between eyes and eye brows. The secretion of lacrimal gland is commonly known as tears.

The inflammation in lacrimal gland can be acute or chronic. The infection by bacteria or virus is the cause of acute inflammation. Chronic inflammation results for disorders like thyroid or pseudotumour. Common example of virus infecting lacrimal gland is Epstein-Barr virus and bacteria is <em>Staphylococcus</em>.

The symptoms of dacryoadenitis include redness in eyes, pain in movements, double vision, droopy upper eyelid etc. Treatment includes intake of antibiotics and abscess drainage.

Why are vestigial structures are considered examples of<br>homologous structures?​
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Vestigial structures are often homologous to structures that are functioning normally in other species. Therefore, vestigial structures can be considered the evidence for evolution, the process by which beneficial heritable traits arise in populations over an extended period of time.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer

          The three metabolic pathways that make up aerobic respiration are really all parts of one larger pathway because the products of early pathways (like NADH) become <u>utilize</u> in the last one.

Explanation

         Aerobic respiration is that type of respiration in which glucose molecule is broken down into CO2 and H2O in the presence of oxygen and 36 or 38 ATP molecules are produced.

Aerobic respiration complete in four main steps:

1. Glycolysis

                  In this step glucose is broken down into 2 molecules of pyruvate acid along with the production of 2 ATP molecules and 2NADH.

2. Oxidation of pyruvate

                In this step pyruvate are oxidized in the presence of co-enzyme A to become Acetyl Co-enzyme A.  Again 2NADH are formed in this step.

3. Kreb Cycle

            It occus in mitochondria. Here acetyle coenzyme A enter Carbon fixation, reduction and regeneration phase. In this cycle 6 NADH, 2FADH2 and 2ATP are formed.

4. Electron transport chain

            All NADH that are produced in above steps get oxidize and help in the production of ATP along with the release of electron and proton that help in the formation of water.
