First-pass effect.
The first-pass effect involves drugs that are given PO and absorbed from the small intestine directly into the portal venous system, which delivers the drug molecules to the liver. Once in the liver, enzymes break the drug into metabolites; they may become active or may be deactivated and readily excreted from the body. A large percentage of the oral dose is usually destroyed and never reaches tissues. Oral dosages account for this phenomenon to ensure an appropriate amount of the drug in the body to produce a therapeutic action. Passive diffusion is the major process through which drugs are absorbed into the body. Active transport is a process that uses energy to actively move a molecule across a cell membrane and is often involved in drug excretion in the kidney. Glomerular filtration is the passage of water and water-soluble components from the plasma into the renal tubule.

Answer:
The correct answer is C. NADP⁺
Explanation:
NADP+ is the coenzyme that acts as the electron carrier during the photosynthetic process. The electron that is released from the splitting of water pass through the electron transport chain and at the end of the chain the electron is received by an electron carrier called NADP+.
So this passing of electron causes the transport of H ions in the thylakoid lumen from the stroma and when these ions come back through ATP synthase it forms ATP. Then these NADPH and ATP are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the CO2 into complex form. Therefore the correct answer is C. NADP⁺.
Pulmonary surfactant is a mixture of lipids and proteins which is secreted into the alveolar space by epithelial type II cells. The main function of the surfactant is to lower the surface tension at the ir/liquid interface within the alveoli of the lung. In babies born prematurely, pulmonary surfactant may not be present in adequate amounts due to insufficient exocytosis in type II alveolar cells.
