The boundary between conducting zone and respiratory zone structures occurs at the terminal bronchiole/respiratory bronchiole junction. The major respiratory structures span the nasal cavity to the diaphragm. Functionally, the respiratory system can be divided into a conducting zone and a respiratory zone. The conducting zone of the respiratory system includes the organs and structures not directly involved in gas exchange. The gas exchange occurs in the respiratory zone.
It is clinically used to separate <span>a mixed population of macromolecules such as DNA or proteins in a matrix of </span>agarose<span>, which is one of the two main components of agar.</span>
The carbon atom has unique properties that allow it to form covalent bonds to as many as four different atoms, making this versatile element ideal to serve as the basic structural component, or “backbone,” of the macromolecules.
