Professor Buchannan suffers from the liver disease called, cirrhosis.
Cirrhosis is a condition involving heavy scarring of the liver caused by chronic conditions and diseases, such as heavy alcoholism and hepatitis. All these chronic damages cause serious problems on the functioning of the liver. Throughout the years, professor's liver tried to repair itself from the damages and that is why the scars were formed.

What is the main purpose of oxygen of glucose in the body?
scoray [572]
Oxygen is required for aerobic respiration. This reaction produces ATP (universal currency for energy) which our bodies use to survive. Without oxygen much less ATP is produced, as aerobic respiration cannot occur in the lack of oxygen. ATP can be formed by anaerobic respiration, in the lack of oxygen, but this produces far far fewer molecules of ATP. This also produces lactic acid causing us to become fatigued and tired. Thus oxygen is crucial to produce the maximum amount of ATP possible.  

Glucose is the main molecule which is respired by our bodies to produce ATP/ energy, which our bodies use to survive. Oxygen and glucose react in the mitochondria to make ATP (release energy.) It therefore, is called a respiratory substrate.

Note: I'm avoided talking about the exact phases of respiration as it is usually not covered till college/ A level standards. If you would like to know exactly which reaction requires oxygen and how it's used (i.e. the stages of respiration) don't hesitate to ask.

What evolutionary mechanisms might account for the origin and persistence of cell-to-cell signaling in unicellular prokaryotes?
Paha777 [63]
<span>The concept of cell signaling is a communication network that is responsible for majority of the cellular activities. It is important that if the cell is deprived of this ability it will soon die. Since a cell is able to correctly interact with it's environment and perceive it,  they are able to repair tissues, develop, and become immune to normal tissue homeostasis.

lianna [129]
The answer is D. This is referred to as reflex reaction. Reflex is the instantaneous and involuntary reactions to a stimuli. Reflex arc does not pass through the brain so the reaction time is shorter than normal. This is a adaptation to increase survival.
