Answer:
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.

There seems to be a typograhical error in option B and C: the word 'community' was repeated twice. However, I've corrected it
Answer: Option B) A community refers to all the populations in an area; a ecosystem includes both biotic and abiotic components
Explanation:
The important difference between community and ecosystem is that the effect of abiotic i.e non- living factors, are considered in an ecosystem, unlike in a community.
Thus, an ecosystem refers to a community of biotic factors i.e plants, animals and microorganisms, interacting together with their non-living environment.
Community, on the other hand, refers to interdependence that occur within a group of plants and animals that occupy a given area. Thus, community considers only biotic factors.
