1. The sensory layer of the eye.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

1. The sensory layer of the eye. B) Retina

2. The structure most responsible for focusing light rays that enter the eye. D) Lens

3. Helps maintain the intraocular pressure; located in the anterior part of the eye. A) Aqueous humor

4. Area of greatest visual acuity. C) Fovea centralis

Explanation:

1. The sensory layer of the eye.

The retina covers the inside of the eyeball. It is considered as the sensory organ of the eye, where the perceived images are projected, are processed in the form of a nerve impulse that leaves the optic nerve.

2. The structure most responsible for focusing light rays that enter the eye.

The lens are the transparent structure inside the eye that focuses light rays in the central part of the retina.

3. Helps maintain the intraocular pressure; located in the anterior part of the eye.

The aqueous humor, is a transparent aqueous fluid secreted by the ciliary body, this liquid derived from the blood plasma, distributes oxygen and nutrients to the upper part of the eye and eliminates residual products. The dynamics of production and elimination of aqueous humor is very important to keep intraocular pressure (IOP) within normal limits.

4. Area of greatest visual acuity.

The fovea, or also known fovea centralis, is the center of the visual field, it is a narrow area of the retina that only contains cones. Its function is to help us have a vision as clear as possible with all kinds of details and precision.

s2008m [1.1K]
Antibiotic resistance happens when an antibiotic lost its ability in controlling or killing bacterial growth. At this moment the bacteria are already resistant to the antibiotic and are multiplying even though the drug is present. This is a natural phenomenon.

Describe how the structures of proteins differ from the structures of carbohydrates
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Both are considered macromolecules. I'll explain below

Explanation:

Proteins are like a huge Lego construction. Each individual piece gets pieced together to make a larger "thing" - Death Star, House, etc. Each individual piece is a monomer, and the larger construction is the polymer. The monomers are Amino Acids and they get pieced together to form the polymer that is called a protein. The linkage that they use is an amide bond, and in biology it is usually called a peptide bond.

Carbohydrates can be singular monomers or polymer units. They are made of completely different compounds - usually aldehydes or ketones. And they link together through different chemical linkages (acetal or ketal linkages for polymers,hemiacetal or hemiketal linkages for monomers).

Both can be large, 3D strucutres - proteins are only functional as a large, 3D structure, while carbohydrates can be singular.
