Which type of organelle or structure is primarily involved in the synthesis of oils

Biology
1 answer:
Irina-Kira [14]3 years ago
6 0

The Endoplasmic reticulum is the organelles that is involved in the synthesis of oils.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The endoplasmic reticulum is of 2 types that is the ''smooth endoplasmic reticulum'' and the ''rough endoplasmic reticulum''. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is lined with ribosomes whereas the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is plain.

Since ribosomes are present the rough endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein synthesis whereas the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the production of oils or lipids that are required for the cell.

A student noticed that the freshwater plant, Elodea, produced bubbles when placed in direct light. What could the student most l
erastovalidia [21]

Explanation:

-The increased light intensity increased the rate of photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis produces glucose and O2 from inorganic CO2, light energy and water.  Since photosynthesis is rate limited, the rate of energy intake can be increased in order to speed up photosynthesis, by speeding up photolysis.

  • 6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

These end products, namely O2 and glucose are then used in respiration...

  • C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

The CO2 and H2O produced as waste in respiration can then be incorporated at the beginning of photosynthesis. Thus the reactions are cyclic- they feed into each other.

Further Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy in the form of molecules of glucose is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide while oxygen is released. This occurs in several complex steps, photosynthesis is a rate limited reaction, depends on several factors including carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity; the energy is retrieved from photons, I.e. particles of light, and water is used as a reducing agent. This occurs in the thykaloids, where pigment molecules like chlorophyll reside.

Occuring in several complex steps, photosynthesis is a rate limited reaction, depends on several factors including carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity; the energy is retrieved from photons, I.e. particles of light, and water is used as a reducing agent. Water supplies the chlorophyll in plant cell with replacement electrons for the ones removed from photosystem II.

Respiration and photorespiration both utilize oxygen for;

  • the production of ATP via the oxidization of pyruvate;
  • and the oxygenation of the molecule Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), an organic molecule also used in photosynthesis, to form 3-PGA + phosphoglycolic acid,

∴ the rate of CO2 usage for photosynthesis where O2 is produced, outpaces the rate of O2 use in respiration and photorespiration.

2. Explain how an incorrect choice of dietary information on high blood sugar could potentially affect the patient.
Mkey [24]

Explanation:

Dietary information should inform choices on food intake- incorrect information may lead to mismanagement of blood sugar levels. Poor management of blood sugar levels  in patients may lead to the development of hyperglycemia. While the body requires sugars as sources of energy through respiration, overly elevated blood sugar levels may lead to complications such as:

  • blurry vision
  • frequent urination
  • headaches
  • dry mouth
  • excessive thirst or hunger
  • drowsiness
  • delayed wound healing

These persons may eventually develop type II diabetes, where the body cannot respond to the insulin it produces.  Individuals diagnosed with the condition should monitor their blood sugar and insulin levels closely to protect their limbs. The work of white blood cells and the capacity of bodies to protect against bacteria is hampered in diabetics-rendering them more vulnerable to possible infection.
