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>
Answer:
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
Explanation:
Arthritis is a term used to refer a group of diseases that affects the joints such as knees, wrists and fingers.
Juvenile rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that affects children which means the body attacks itself by mistakenly identifying its own cells as foreign .
The cause of this response is not yet known.
Some of the symptoms of the disease include stiffness, pain, joint swelling, skin rush, fever, slowed growth and fatigue.
It has no cure but in some cases children seem to outgrow the disease.
<span>This form of providing energy for the storage and transport within the cell is called as Mitochondria. The energy production is done threw respiration and help regulate the cellular metabolism. Mitochondria are organelle that is present in the cytoplasm, not nucleus. Exercising your body can boost the density of mitochondria.</span>
Answer:
c) degree of myelination of the axon
Explanation:
Axon conduction velocity can be defined as the speed at which an electrochemical impulse propagates down an axon.
Factors that determines the rate of conduction velocity are:
- axon diameter-larger diameter axons have a higher conduction velocity
- sheeth-a myelin sheath increases the rate of impulse propagatio
Different types of neurons will have different speed of propagation because of their different properties and because different types of information are sent.
