Answer:

"it provides all the elements for lipids".

Explanation:

The elements of glucose are carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Hence, if the molecule glucose were broken down, those elements are released. The elements of lipids are the same as glucose. But sometimes lipids contain sulfur and phosphorous. In proteins there is nitrogen as element other than carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Nucleic acids also have carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus as elements. Hence, glucose molecule cannot provide all the elements for proteins and nucleic acids but can provide elements for most of lipids.

Answer:

CD40L

Explanation:

The CD40 ligand (CD40L) protein is a transmembrane glycoprotein which is expressed on activated T cells and belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily. The hyper IgM syndrome is caused by mutations in the CD40L gene, where the defective protein can no longer bind CD40 on antigen-presenting cells. The X-linked Hyper IgM syndrome is characterized by abnormal levels of immunoglobulins, i.e., low levels of IgG and IgA, and increased/normal levels of IgM. Because CD40L gene is located on the X chromosome, this disorder is observed much more frequently in males than in females.

Blood pressure falls with distance from the heart. Using this information, which of the following properly lists the type of blo

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- arteries→capillaries→veins

Explanation:

The circulation of blood in the closed circulatory system flows through blood vessels. These blood vessels show structural differences in response to the pressure exerted by the blood on the surrounding medium.

The blood pressure varies in the circulatory system because the heart pumps the blood with a greater force, so the blood vessel called arteries which carries the blood from the heart posses thicker walls.

The blood pressure reduces until the blood reaches the organs, the blood pressure reduces. Thus the blood in the capillaries has lower pressure.

When blood exits from the organs back to the heart, then the blood pressure is highly reduced as a result, the veins carry the blood with lower pressure.

Thus, arteries→capillaries→veins are the correct answer.
