What chemical reactions do monomers of lipids go through to form lipids?
Dmitrij [34]
Cellulose is one of the most abundant natural biopolymers. The cell walls of plants are mostly made of cellulose, which provides structural support to the cell. Wood and paper are mostly cellulosic in nature. Cellulose is made up of glucose monomers that are linked by bonds between particular carbon atoms in the glucose molecule.
Every other glucose monomer in cellulose is flipped over and packed tightly as extended long chains. This gives cellulose its rigidity and high tensile strength—which is so important to plant cells. Cellulose passing through our digestive system is called dietary fiber. While the glucose-glucose bonds in cellulose cannot be broken down by human digestive enzymes, herbivores such as cows, buffalos, and horses are able to digest grass that is rich in cellulose and use it as a food source. In these animals, certain species of bacteria reside in the rumen (part of the digestive system of herbivores) and secrete the enzyme cellulase. The appendix also contains bacteria that break down cellulose, giving it an important role in the digestive systems of ruminants. Cellulases can break down cellulose into glucose monomers that can be used as an energy source by the animal.

Cora is a long-term user of antipsychotic medication and was once misdiagnosed with a medical condition that mimics tardive dysk
Art [367]
Cora might have been diagnosed with another disease that presents similarly as tardive dyskinesia (this disease is a common adverse effect of antipsychotic drugs). Her misdiagnosis is most likely Sydenham's Chorea which affects people with rheumatic fevers. Other differentials include seizures and essential tremors.
