A 61-year-old woman is found to have ocular lymphoma invading her optic canal. Which of the following structures would most like
Lynna [10]

The optic canal transmits the optic nerve and ophthalmic artery(option-E).

<h3>What is ophthalmic artery?</h3>

The internal carotid artery's first branch is the ophthalmic artery. It separates right near the cavernous sinus. The orbit, meninges, face, and upper nose are all supplied by the numerous branches that the ophthalmic artery produces. Vision may be compromised if the ophthalmic artery is blocked.

The lacrimal gland, conjunctiva, and eyelids are all supplied by it. In order to supply the posterior uveal tract, the ophthalmic artery releases a number of posterior ciliary arteries that cross the sclera. Being end vessels, the posterior ciliary vessels are susceptible to sudden occlusion, which can result in infarction in the choroid region.

Fittoniya [83]

<u>Chemical bonds between glucose molecules in starch that are easily broken by human </u><u>digestive enzymes </u><u>are called</u><u> alpha bonds.</u>

How is starch broken down into glucose?

  • When you consume starchy meals, an enzyme called amylase located in your saliva and small intestine breaks down the starches into sugars like glucose, maltotriose, and maltose.
  • Other enzymes, such as maltase, lactase, sucrase, and isomaltase, further break down these compound sugars into simple sugars.

What is alpha and beta bond?

  • The 1,4 alpha and 1,4 beta glycosidic linkages are the two different forms of glycosidic bonds.
  • When the OH on the carbon-1 is below the glucose ring, 1,4 alpha glycosidic bonds are created, whereas when the OH is above the plane, 1,4 beta glycosidic bonds are created.
