juin [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Celiac disease is an example of a(n) auto immune disease,  which creates inflammation in the small  intestine and can lead to malnutrition and other health problems.

Explanation:

An autoimmune disease can be described as a disease which occurs as a result of the body's own immune system destroying cells of the body.

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks its own intestine whenever gluten-rich food is taken. As a result, serious damage is caused to the villi. As villi are structures involved in nutrient absorption, damage to them causes lack of nutrient absorption. This leads to malnutrition.

Neko [114]

Answer:

Chloroplast -----membranes----------internal

                                             ---------external

                  ----- Tylacoids-------------Grana

                  ----- Stroma

You will find the complete concept map in the attached files  

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are composed of three membrane systems. Surrounding the organelle we can find the external membrane. To the interior of the organelle, there is the internal membrane. These two systems are separated by the intermembrane space. According to the endosymbiotic theory, the presence of a double membrane is the characteristic that reinforces the idea of a prokaryote being phagocyted by a eukaryote. The internal membrane looks identical to the membrane of bacterias, while the external membrane looks like the eukaryotic one.

Thylakoids are located in the interior of the organelle. These structures are also surrounded by a membrane, and in their interior, there is the thylakoid space. Each thylakoid looks like a hollow sac, and together with other thylakoids, they form piles, known as grana. Different piles or grana connect to each other by longer membranes. These internal structures together compose the third system of membranes. The photosynthetic pigments are located in the thylakoids, where it occurs the light-dependent reactions.

Surrounding the thylakoids there is a dense liquid called the stroma. Here takes a place the Calvin cycle.
