Answer:

Both (b) and (c)

Explanation:

Fats, steroids and waxes are some of the most common types of lipids. Lipids are non-polar hydrocarbons because of the presence of non-polar carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds in there structure.

Generally, polar molecules are soluble in water while non-polar molecules are insoluble in water, hence, lipids do not dissolve in water. There non-polarity also makes them a suitable component in the selectively permeable biological cell membrane.

Which one of the following processes does not occur to excess neurotransmitters in the synapse
svlad2 [7]

This question is incomplete because the options are not given; here is the complete question:

Which one of the following processes does not occur to excess neurotransmitters in the synapse?

A. Break down or digested into inactive fragments.

B. Collection by scavenger vesicles left over from the neurotransmitter release.

C. Drifting away from the synapse via diffusion.

D. Reuptake within the pre-synaptic neuron.

The answer to this question is B. Collection by scavenger vesicles left over from the neurotransmitter release.

Explanation:

The word synapse refers to the neurological structure that allows the transmission of signals or information between neurons. This process occurs through neurotransmitters, which are the molecules or substances with the messages.

Moreover, in this process, there can be in some cases excess. In this situation, the body reacts to this excess by degrading or breaking down the extra neurotransmitters, eliminating it through diffusion, or even reabsorbing it (reuptake). In this context, all are processes that occur due to excess neurotransmitters except collection by scavenger vesicles because in most cases neurotransmitters are simply absorbed or eliminated but there are not specialized scavenger vesicles that collect them.

Earth's surface winds generally blow from regions of higher
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Earth's surface wind generally blow from regions of higher AIR PRESSURE TOWARDS REGION OF LOWER AIR PRESSURE.
The direction in which the wind blow on the earth surface is a product of many factors, the most important of these factors are: pressure, friction and Coriolis effects. On the earth surface, the wind normally blow from high to low pressure. A high pressure system followed by a low pressure system allows the wind to flow in clockwise direction outward toward a low pressure system. This ensures the continuous flow of the wind.

In the cell cycle, when does the cleavage furrow / cell plate form?
Pie

Explanation:

Cytokinesis is the final act of cell division. In a typical animal mitosis, a cleavage furrow forms at the equatorial cortex after anaphase. This furrow then advances inwards to separate the two daughter cells.
