Answer:

The correct answer is option - C amino acids.

Explanation:

The blood brain barrier or BBB is border that separates extracellular fluid in the central nervous system (CNS) and the blood that is circulating from the brain.

This barrier is allows the passage by facilitate diffusion (passive diffusion) and through the selective proteins of molecules such as glucose, amino acids that are essential for the neural function.

Thus, the correct answer is -  amino acids.

Answer:

c. Amino acids          

Explanation:

             BBB stands for the blood brain barrier. The proper functioning of the brain is meant by the amino acids. Amino acids are most necessary for  production of proteins which are essential for the working of any cell.

           In general antibodies and large polysaccharides like starch are too large and are not able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Whereas urea does not have specialized proteins and therefore they cannot enter the brain.

Hence the correct option is (c).

How does static electricity work?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

"Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. These charges can build up on the surface of an object until they find a way to be released or discharged. One way to discharge them is through a circuit. ... Remember, objects with the same charge repel each other."  ~  www.loc.gov

Essentially saying that if you have a lot of friction, it will create a positive and negative electric charge, this electric charge also contains a small magnetic field which is static electricity.

True or false? nucleotides can be broken apart from a single strand of rna by hydrolysis reactions.
Tomtit [17]
The statement above is TRUE.
RNA hydrolysis is a reaction in which a phosphodiester bond in the sugar phosphate backbone of RNA is broken, thus cleaving the RNA molecule.
This reaction is made possible in RNA because the ribose sugar in RNA has hydroxyl group at the two prime position.
