Answer: proteins

Explanation: enzymes are specialized proteins.during digestion,they act as biological catalyst as they help to break down ingested food particles into forms that can be absorbed.Most enzymes are secreted in an inactive form.eg pepsinogen which is converted to pepsin,it's active form.

Digestive enzymes can act on #proteins---they are called protease

#Carbonhydrate---they are called carbonhydrases

#Fats---they are called lipases.

Enzymes are specific to the type of reaction they catalyst.

Other function of proteins in the living cells include

# contractile proteins in the muscles helps in motion of organisms

#receptor proteins for hormones and cell signalling

#proteins found in the membrane of cells.

baroreceptors in the aortic arch.

Explanation:

Vasoconstriction of capillaries and baroreceptors in the aortic arch are the two quick responses of body to maintain normal blood pressure during hemorrhage. Vasoconstriction is very necessary for lowering acute blood loss during hemorrhage means escape of blood from a ruptured blood vessel as well as maintain body heat and arterial pressure. The function of baroreceptors is to respond to the change in the tension of the arterial wall when blood pressure changes.

in the poorest countries like ethiopia and bangladesh, biomass represents blank percent of their energy consumption.

Dahasolnce [82]

In the poorest countries like Ethiopia and Bangladesh, biomass represents 90% of their energy consumption.

<h3>Why is biomass a good source of energy?</h3>

Form of renewable energy produced when we burn biomass fuel is called biomass. Biomass fuels is derived from organic material such as harvest residues, purpose-grown crops and organic waste from homes, businesses and farms.

Biomass provides a clean and renewable energy source that can improve our environment , economy and energy security. Biomass energy generates less air emissions as compared to fossil fuels, reduces amount of waste that is sent to landfills and decreases our dependence on foreign oil.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Neurodegeneration

Explanation:

The term neurodegeneration refers to a group of disorders which are characterized by a progressive waste of function or structure of neurons, that in worst cases can include death of neaurons.

Many neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease,– including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease and Alzheimer's disease can occur due to neurodegeneration.

Neurodegeneration can manifest itself in various forms such as lack of physical and intellectual abilities like inability to use muscles or memory loss. These disorders cannot be completely cured and ultimately lead to the death of neurons.

As mentioned in the question, the person suffers from progressive loss of intellectual and physical abilities that has occurred over the course of a long period of time. Therefore, it is most probable that he is having some neurodegenerative disorder.

Hope it helps!
