Fat (lipid) molecules are made up mostly of long chains of carbon atoms.
For a fat molecule to be considered saturated, the carbon chain must have only single bonds between them.
Schematically, they look like -C-C-C-C- ...
If the carbon chain contains one or more double bonds, such as -C=C-C-C, then the given lipid molecule is unsaturated.
If a lipid molecule (fatty acid) contains exactly one double bond in its chain, and the rest are single bonds, it is then called monosaturated. It is a more healthy food source than saturated fats.
Saturated fat are generally solid at room temperatures. Examples include lard, butter, mostly from animal sources. However, coconut oil (solid at room temperatures as well) is a saturated fat.
Answer:
The molecules in a solid are more closely packed than those in a gas. Gas molecules are VERY spread apart, which is why we cannot see them.
Explanation:
<span>Answer is d. all of these.
Anxiolytic/hypnotic drugs are medicines or depressants that used to relieve anxiety, and aid sleep. The benzodiazepines are the best known class of drugs to this category. Benzodiazepine causes sedation but it rarely interfere with person’s breathing or death. Even though benzodiazepine can treat anxiety symptoms, they can be extremely dangerous. <span>They can cause side effects, become addictive, and even cause fatal withdrawal symptoms for some users.</span></span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The molecular and cellular mechanisms and processes that explain muscle contraction in striated muscle occur in the myofibril sarcomere. Their understanding depends on the organization's understanding of the structure of the sarcomere. In an imaginary experiment we first assemble an ideal sarcomere.
Remember that the myofibril is a set of cylindrical compartments that are located next to each other, constituting an elongated cylinder. Each of these cylinders is a sarcomere and borders its neighbor on a line or band called, line or band z.
On each side of the z line, thin cylindrical filaments that are actin filaments are inserted. Each actin filament is formed by a double strand of actin molecules that are rolled over each other. In this organization, actin is called actin F.
