Its primary role in red blood cells is to maintain levels of red blood cells with low levels of this compound are more suceptible to oxidative damage.

Explanation:

Pentose phosphte pathway helps in the formation of reducing equivalent named NADPH.

The so formed NADPH is used to maintain a normal cellular level of glutathione which act as antioxidant.

As glutathione is not mantained in its normal level, it ability to reduce to adverse effect of hydrogen peroxide is cut down.

As a result cell is more suceptible to oxidative damage.

In law of superposition which layer is the oldest and which layer is the youngest

Vlada [557]

<u>In law of superposition which layer is the oldest and which layer is the youngest?</u>

Law of superpostion is an axiom that forms one of the bases of the sciences of geology, archaeology, and other fields dealing with geological stratigraphy. In its plainest form, it states that in undeformed stratigraphic sequences, the oldest strata will be at the bottom of the sequence. The oldest layer would be at the bottem because of how old it is and because of how much other elemnt has been coverd on it. The younges would be on top because it is newer and just got the in the last 100 years.
