Connective tissue is the tissue of a living organism that does not directly correspond to the work of any organ or organ system, but plays an auxiliary role in all organs, accounting for 60-90% of their mass. Performs basic, protective and trophic functions. Connective tissue<span> has three main components: cells, fibers, and ground substance. </span>Connective tissue<span> is classified into two subtypes: soft and specialized connective tissue. Its main functions are connecting function, keeping water balance, healing function, protection, and trophic function. </span>

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: .OH, O2-, H2O2

Explanation:

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically reactive and unstable species containing oxygen. ROS are formed when oxygen is partially reduced, thus they are all radicals with very high reactivity, attacking membrane proteins such as ion channels etc

Examples include peroxides (H2O2), superoxide (O2-), hydroxyl radical (.OH)

The production of hcl is encoded into our dna. using the functions of activators and repressors, explain how hcl is only produce
sashaice [31]
Activators and repressors are transcription-control elements that are found in eukaryotic organisms. These elements function during the process of transcription, where a DNA molecule is coded onto a RNA molecule for it to be sent to ribosomes outside of the nucleus and then polypeptide chains are produced from it.

The activators and repressors control which proteins are made, which means that they can either hinder or promote certain functions in the cells of the body. Therefore, even though all of the cells have the same set of DNA, some are able to produce HCl, while others produce other substances such as insulin.

. Describe the structures of proteins and nucleic acids, and then explain the relationship between these two molecules within a
Snowcat [4.5K]
<span>Proteins are large biomolecules that are made up of long chains of building block molecules called amino acids. Each amino acid folds to form a protein with a specific cellular function.

Nucleic acid is basically DNA & RNA. DNA is the genetic information that contains all the information one needs to live. RNA stands for ribonucleic acid and has a variety of roles.

When comparing them, they actually don't look at all similar when looking at the large molecules or the 'building blocks'. But, they're both made up of mostly carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. The elements mentioned are assembled in different ways for both Proteins & Nucleic acid. The major similarity between them is that with the protein production DNA and RNA contain all the information that a cell uses to make protein.

</span><span>Their overall interactions can be summed up by the central dogma of molecular biology:

DNA --transcription--> RNA --translation--> Proteins

Your skeletal stores calcium. How does the calcium get into your body
frosja888 [35]

The calcium get into your body through Vitamin D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to make the bones healthy, calcium and phosphorus is very essential.  Calcium cannot be made by human body. The body only gets the calcium it needs, by means the food you eat, or from supplements. Vitamin D plays a major role in the absorption of calcium in human body. Calcium is a major mineral in a human body that helps in the proper working of body cells and nerves.

The quantity of the minerals like calcium, phosphorous,etc that are present in a segment of bone determines the density of bone. A percentage of 15 to 20 of calcium is absorbed from the diet that human intake. When the levels of vitamin D is low, there will be lower intake to calcium by gut. This causes the bones to become weaker.
