Glutamine and glutamate are the primary nitrogen donors for biosynthetic reactions in the cell. Glutamine is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. Its side chain is similar to that of glutamic acid, except the carboxylic acid group is replaced by an amide. It is classified as a charge-neutral, polar amino acid. It is non-essential and conditionally essential in humans, meaning the body can usually synthesize sufficient amounts of it, but in some instances of stress, the body's demand for glutamine increases, and glutamine must be obtained from the diet. Glutamate is generally acknowledged to be the most important transmitter for normal brain function. Nearly all excitatory neurons in the central nervous system<span> are glutamatergic, and it is estimated that over half of all brain synapses release this agent. Glutamate plays an especially important role in clinical neurology because elevated concentrations of extracellular glutamate, released as a result of neural injury, are toxic to neurons</span>

You can be infected with a virus & not even know it & that is true
There should be options for this question. I manged to find them elsewhere. They are:
A) the period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become functional
B) the period during which the umbilical cord develops
C) the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop
D) the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining
The correct answer is C. The embryonic period is the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop. The embryonic period lasts from implantation of the egg in the uterus until about 8 weeks from the time of conception. It is the second major stage of prenatal development, prior to embryonic is the germinal stage and lastly is the fetal stage.
What’s question 1? (It says the info from it is needed)
