Answer:

C. Cholesterol

Explanation:

Cholesterol maintains the fluidity of the cell membrane and thereby, regulates its function.

Bile acids are derived from cholesterol which serves as their precursor. For example, Taurocholic acid is a polar derivative of cholesterol. Bile acids serve in the absorption of fatty acids, glycerol, and fat-soluble vitamins as these compounds are non-polar in nature.  

Vitamin D is produced when the derivative of cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol undergoes photolysis in skin cells in presence of sunlight.

Sophie [7]

Answer:

Fibrinogen

Explanation:

Fibrinogen is one of the proteins present in the blood plasma. It makes 7% of the plasma proteins. During the process of blood clotting, the active thrombin enzyme serves to convert soluble fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin. These insoluble threads of fibrin form the clot. Both thrombin and fibrinogen are produced in the liver. If fibrinogen is less than 4%, the process of blood clotting will be disturbed due to the production of insufficient threads of fibrin.
