Answer:
Oxidative phosphorylation
Explanation:
There are two types of alveolar cells. The type I alveolar cells which lines the alveoli and much more abundant than type II alveolar cells. Then the type II alveolar cells lesser in number but functions differently than type I alveolar cells. Type II alveolar cells secrete surfactant (composed of lecitin and sphingomyelin) for the lungs. Surfactant reduces the surface tension inside the alveoli, preventing alveolar consolidation. This is important as babies with dysfunctional type II alveolar cells (usually preterm babies less than 32 weeks age of gestation) will have respiratory distress syndrome in the absence of surfactant.
Answer:
d) The conversion of genetic information from the language of nucleic acids to the language of proteins
Explanation:
The correct answer is D. Heat is transferred by radiation in Step 1 and by conduction in Step 2
radiation- the process of heat moving through the air
conduction- the process of heat moving from one object to another object by physical contact
