What is the function of lipoprotein lipase?

Biology
1 answer:
scZoUnD [109]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Hydrolysis of triglycerides in lipoproteins

Explanation:

Lipoprotein lipase is a water-soluble enzyme which includes pancreatic lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase.  

Enzymes involved in triacylglycerol digestion are lipases and they catalyze the partial hydrolysis of triglycerides into a mixture of free fatty acids and acylglycerols. After digestion of lipids, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form micelles. Micelles are structures that are necessary for the transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte. But, micelles cannot be absorbed by epithelial cell, only freely dissolved monoglycerides and fatty acids can.

3. jack is using plastic beads to model water molecules in each state of water. how shoule she the beads to represent water mole
just olya [345]

Jack should arrange the beads close together and slide past each other to represent water molecules in a liquid.

<h3>How are the molecules of water arranged when water is in its liquid phase?</h3>
  • Each water molecule contains two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen, arranged such that one side of the molecule (nearest the hydrogens) is positively charged while the other side (nearest the oxygen) is negatively charged.
  • They’re arranged randomly, and in random motion.
  • In fact, they’re not even keeping the same hydrogen atoms, as they are constantly popping off and reforming on the nanosecond time scale.

Marfan syndrome is a dominant trait. A cross between a homozygous dominant and a heterozygote would produce what phenotypic rati
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is- 4:0

Explanation:

Marfan syndrome is a genetic problem which affects the connective tissue in the body. The trait for this disease is autosomal dominant which means even one abnormal copy of this gene in the offspring or individual is sufficient to cause this syndrome.

Let S is the allele that is dominant for this syndrome and s is recessive. So if a cross between homozygous dominant(SS) and heterozygous individual (Ss) occurs than all the offspring would have this syndrome.  

                                   S      s

                              S  SS   Ss

                              S  SS   Ss

Therefore all 4 offspring would have at least one dominant allele which is sufficient to cause this syndrome. So the phenotype ratio would be 4:0.
