Answer:
Explanation:
Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.
Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.
Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.
Answer:carbon,hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulphur
Explanation:living things are characteristized by hierarchy in their organisation.macromolecules are made up of elements each with it's unique chemical bonds.
Within the cell, macromolecules are found in organelles ,which form the cells.the cells combines into tissues,which combines into organs .organs systems consists of similar functional organs.
living things commonly contains carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen,oxygen, phosphorus and sulphur.

Answer:
The suprachiasmatic nuclei enable the nervous system to respond to daily light/dark alterations through their stimulation of melatonin.
Explanation:
Melatonin is a hormone produced naturally by the body. Its function is to regulate the body's circadian cycle. This hormone is stimulated and begins to act by changing between a light environment and a dark environment. This stimulation interacts with the suprachiasmatic nuclei making the nervous system understand this change and luminosity of the environment and respond to the action of melatonin.
