Which of the following statements about lipid processing is/are correct? Choose all that apply.

Biology
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Sphingomyelin and glycolipids are precursors of ceramide.

Glycolipids are sugar molecule(s) attached to a membrane lipid.

Ceramide can be made into either sphingomyelin or a glycolipid depending on what enzyme encounters ceramide first.

Sphingomyelin is a phospholipid made in the Golgi.

Explanation:

Simple sphingolipids are the ceramides. Glycolipids, a large group of sphingolipids, contain one or more molecules of sugar (glucose or galactose).

Lipids that are synthesized in the ER (not in the RER) are cholesterol and ceramide which is further converted to either glycolipids or sphingomyelin in the golgi apparatus. Ceramide can then get sent to the Golgi, where it can be converted into either glycolipids or the only non-glycerol-based phospholipid, sphingomyelin.

SER (not RER) is involved in the synthesis of lipids, including cholesterol and phospholipids, which are used in the production of new cellular membrane.

An air mass that originates in the Pacific ocean, west of Brazil, is most likely
kykrilka [37]

An air mass that originates in the Pacific ocean, west of Brazil, is most likely WARM AND WET.

A. warm and wet

<u>Explanation:</u>

The pacific ocean has the tropical maritime air mass so it is warm and wet. they affect the United States originate over the Caribbean sea, Mexico, pacific and the western Brazil.

So the air masses in the pacific ocean, western Brazil are wet and warm.the air masses have the fairly uniform temperature and the moisture content in the horizontal direction.

Air masses are characterized by their temperature and the humidity properties. The air mass where the originate is based on the surface properties.

Three organelles found in cells?
Katen [24]

Answer:

1.Plasma membrane

The plasma membrane surrounds the cell to create a barrier between the cytosol and the extracellular matrix. Plasma membranes also enclose lumens of some cellular organelles.

2.Endoplasmic reticulum

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large network of membranes responsible for the production of proteins, metabolism and transportation of lipids, and detoxification of poisons. There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum with separate functions: smooth endoplasmic reticulum and rough endoplasmic reticulum. The presence or absence of ribosomes in the ER’s plasma membrane determines whether it is classified as smooth or rough ER.

3.Golgi apparatus

The Golgi apparatus appears as a series of flattened, membranous sacs, or cisternae, that resemble a stack of pancakes just off the rough endoplasmic reticulum. It receives vesicles containing proteins recently produced by the rER. The Golgi apparatus can be compared to a warehouse or post office for newly formed proteins. Here the proteins are further modified, packaged, and sent off to their final destinations in the cell or body.
