Two intermediates of the sterol biosynthesis pathway, isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate, are used by archaea in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids. Isoprenoids are organic compounds <span> which play widely varying roles in the physiological processes of plants and animals.</span>
<span>In the six kingdom classification system bacteria are divided into two kingdoms which are known as Archaebacteria and Eubacteria. The archaebacteria are organisms that can dwell in hostile environments like deep sea vents, hot springs, and salt water; while Eubacteria include organisms that can be harmful to humans because they cause certain kinds of diseases like step-throat and botulism.</span>
Hyponatremia is a condition where the concentration of sodium is abnormally low in the body. Sodium acts as an electrolyte that helps in maintaining the amount of water in the body.
Extremely low amount of sodium in the body leads to weakness, headache, etc. During periods of intense activity body releases vasopressin hormone that helps body to retain water. Endurance athletes become vulnerable to developing hyponatremia because these athletes during water during strenuous exercises. This makes the concentration of sodium low in the body by diluting it with more water.This may lead to hyponatremia.
