Answer: A -Hydroxylase enzymes require vitamin C during collagen synthesis.

Explanation:

Vitamin C is essential for synthesis of collagen. Vitamin C is the essential cofactor for the two enzymes required for collagen synthesis which are  prolyl hydroxylase (to stabilize the collagen molecule) and lysyl hydroxylase (to give structural strength cross-linking).

In addition to its antioxidant functions, vitamin C regulates the synthesis of the structural protein collagen. The role of vitamin C in the hydroxylation of collagen molecules is well characterized. Hydroxylation of collagen is necessary for its extracellular stability and support of the epidermis.

CAN SOMEONE PLZ HELP
ra1l [238]

Answer:   1 Lysosomes and peroxisomes, Microtubules, Endoplasmic reticulum, Mitochondria

2 The role of the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell is to control the cell. Because it contains most of the cell's DNA, which is encoded with genetic instructions, the nucleus controls which proteins the cell makes.

3 The rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes on its surface. This is what give the RER a "rough" appearance.            The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) does not contain ribosomes. The Smooth ER looks more like tubes. The SER helps in the storage of proteins and lipids.

4 Secretory vesicles contain materials that are to be excreted from the cell, such as wastes or hormones.

Transport vesicles move molecules within the cells.

Vacuoles are vesicles that contain mostly water.

hope this helps
