Answer:

The correct option is : c) Glycerophospholipids

Explanation:

The lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane is composed of glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids and sterols.

The sphingolipids are the derivatives of sphingosine. Whereas, <u>the glycerophospholipids are the derivatives of </u><u>phosphatidic acids</u>.

Phosphatidic acid are the phospholipids that give one glycerol molecule, one  molecule of phosphoric acid and two fatty acids molecules on hydrolysis.

<u>Therefore, Phosphatidic acid is a precursor of glycerophospholipids.</u>

The digestive and excretory systems
hammer [34]

THE EXCRETORY SYSTEM

Answer: The attachment shows the nephron which is the functional unit of the kidney.

It does the work of urine formation through 3 distinct processes.

-Ultra filtration( Small molecules are forced out of the selectively permeable membrane of the glomerulus into the Bowman's capsule under regulated pressure.these molecules are from the blood in the glomerulus brought in by the afferent arteriole.

- Selective reabsorption ( Useful molecule and iron such as glucose and sodium are reabsorbed back into the blood as the filtrate flows through the tubule(nephron)

-Tubular Secretion. ( Movement of molecules not filtered by the glomerulus during the initial stage of filtration back into the filtrate through the renal capillaries.

Stella's urine sample shows the presence of large protein (ULTRAFILTRATION)

John's blood test report indicates a high toxin level ( ULTRAFILTRATION AND TUBULAR SECRETION)

Miguel's blood test shows an increase in metabolic waste( ULTRAFILTRATION AND TUBULAR SECRETION)

Janice's urine report shows the presence of vital materials ( SELECTIVE REABSORPTION).
