• Support of neurons by supporting endothelilal cell of blood–brain barrier,

• Provide nutrients to neurons

• Maintain ion balance and thus controlchemical environment around neurons

• Repair of injuries in the brain

please match the following nutritional types with the statements that most accurately describe them, to test your understanding
svetlana [45]

Autotroph: a creature that obtains its carbon from inorganic carbon dioxide

Chemotroph: an organism that obtains energy from chemical substances-Heterotroph: an organism that must receive its carbon in an organic form

Phototroph: an organism that produces energy from sunlight

The term "primary nutritional groups" refers to a category of creatures that are separated into subcategories based on the sources of carbon and energy that they require for survival, growth, and reproduction. Carbon can come from organic or inorganic sources, and energy can be derived from either light or chemical molecules. ATP, carbs, or proteins are used to store the liberated energy as potential energy. The energy is eventually put to use for activities essential to life, like movement, growth, and reproduction.

Can you write a short summary about DNA. The main facts and purposes plz and thankyou... WILL UPVOTE
fiasKO [112]
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). <span>DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units called base pairs. Each base is also attached to a sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. Together, a base, sugar, and phosphate are called a nucleotide. Nucleotides are arranged in two long strands that form a spiral called a double helix. The structure of the double helix is somewhat like a ladder, with the base pairs forming the ladder’s rungs and the sugar and phosphate molecules forming the vertical sidepieces of the ladder.</span>
