ateo goes to his doctor after experiencing discomfort for a few days. Following tests and an examination, the doctor tells Mateo

that his body is unable to get rid of waste products, and their high levels are the reason for his discomfort. Mateo is most probably suffering from a disease that’s affecting his body’s ability to excrete waste products. He may have to take medication. If his condition worsens, he might have to regularly undergo to filter the waste products from his blood. NextReset

This is a case of acute or chronic (or acute on chronic) kidney disease. Mateo should take diuretics or drugs that induce tubular secretion and/or water excretion and therefore urination. If kidney disease worsens, the patient will undergo filtration of waste products from his blood or this is called hemodialysis. There is another way of filtering waste products using the fluid in the peritoneum called peritoneal dialysis. Other complications of chronic kidney disease is anemia as erythropoeitin (functions to signal the production of red blood cells) is produced in the kidneys.

Cholesterol's main role in the membrane seems to be:
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

E) Improve membrane fluidity

Explanation:

Cholesterol constitutes the basic structural element of the skeleton of cell membranes. Without their reinforcement, the membranes would become extremely fluid and lose their consistency. Cholesterol is found in the esterified membranes in its hydroxyl group (OH): with fatty acids, mainly oleic and linoleic, or as cholesterol sulfate. The cholesterol-sulfate polar group is disposed on one of the faces of the membrane that interacts with other polar groups in that area, while its bulky hydrophobic portion is embedded between the apolar parts of the lipids that form the membrane skeleton and They fulfill many other functions, among which the reduction in the permeability of protons and sodium ions, and their participation in signal transmission. Cholesterol is also essential in phagocytosis processes carried out by cells to capture many nutrients and, in general, for the function of cleaning up organic waste produced by macrophages.

The membranes must have a fluid structure so that the integrated proteins can move "horizontally" to interact with their ligands and with other proteins. The fluidity is given by unsaturated fat. With the excess of saturated fat, the membranes become rigid, but only with the necessary unsaturated fat the membranes are extremely fluid and very sensitive to temperature changes. Cholesterol stabilizes the structure of the membranes; In order for them to have the correct structure, they must have the correct proportions of saturated, unsaturated fats and cholesterol. The membranes produced in the laboratory without cholesterol are unstable to temperature changes, drastically modifying their fluidity against the small temperature changes that occur in the physiological range.

In addition to its functions in cell membranes, cholesterol is an important product that metabolism uses as a raw material to make other compounds:

*Bile salts

*Sex hormones

*Hormones of the adrenal cortex (corticosteroids)

*Vitamin D (Calciferol)

An important similarity between photosynthesis and cellular respiration is that both processes??
LuckyWell [14K]

If you choices are the following;


a. use and store O2.

b. use and make ATP.

c. store energy in glucose.

d. release energy from glucose.


The answer would be b. use and make ATP.


Both processes use and make ATP but the way they do this are reversed. In cellular respiration, ATP is made by breaking down complex molecules. Photosynthesis on the other hand uses ATP to produce complex molecules.
