Ureteritis is the inflammation of the ureter or the tube that lead from the bladder to the kidney.

Explanation:

The ureter is the tube that connects the bladder to the kidney. The ureter wall muscles contract and relax continuously to force and transport the urine collected in the bladder to the kidneys.  

The inflammation may be due to bacterial or viral infections or pyelonephritis. Any inflammation in the ureters can lead to blockage of the urine leading to kidney infection.  This inflammation to spread to other regions of urinary system leading to urosepsis.

A rare inflammatory condition called ureteritis cystica occurs due to benign inflammatory reaction of the urothelial tissues lining the ureters due to infection or any other irritation.

The following statements describe different types of lipids. Fill in the blanks with the following wordsa.triacylglycerolsb. gly
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

1.) Compounds that contain a fused ring systerm are called _steroids_. These have three 6-membered rings and one 5-membered ring. some of these compounds are found in biological membranes.

2.) _Fatty acids__ are the building blocks for many lipids, and they generally contain an even number of carbon atoms and an unbranched hydrocarbon chain

3.) _Glycolipid__ are formed when a carbohydrate is glycosidically linked to a hydroxyl group of a lipid. examples include gangliosides and cerebrosides. these are also found in biological membranes.

4.) _Triacylglycerols_are the storage form of lipids, accumulating in adipose tissue, and they can be used as metabloic fuel. these compounds have a polar part, made of three ester groups, and a nonpolar fatty acid tail.

5.) _Sphingolipids__ are made up of a long-chain amino alcohol joined, either by a glycosidic linkage or a phosphodiester linkage, to a fatty acid. these do not contain _glycerol__. they are abundant in the nervous system.

6.) When glycerol esterified to two fatty acids and a phophoric acid molecule a _glycerophospholipid_ is formed. These are found in biological membranes.
