Nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are the four major types of biomolecules that form all living things. These biomolecules consists of monomers linked together by covalent bonds to form polymers.

  • Nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates and lipids can be classified according to their basic elements, monomer constituents, and functions.

Basic elements:

  1. Nucleic acids: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Nitrogen (N); Phosphorous (P)
  2. Proteins: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Nitrogen (N); Sulfur (Z)
  3. Carbohydrates: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O)
  4. Lipids: Hydrogen (H); Carbon (C); Oxygen (O); Phosphorous (P)

Monomer constituents:

  1. Nucleic acids: nucleotides
  2. Proteins: amino acids
  3. Carbohydrates: monosaccharides
  4. Lipids: fatty acids and glycerol

Functions:

  1. Nucleic acids: contains the hereditary information to synthesize proteins
  2. Proteins: regulate metabolic processes (enzymes), the main biomolecule of cellular structures
  3. Carbohydrates: store energy (short term); form cellular structures
  4. Lipids: store energy (long term); the main component of biological membranes

Examples:

  1. Nucleic acids: DNA and RNA
  2. Proteins: lactase; collagen
  3. Carbohydrates: starch (polysaccharide); glucose (monosacharide)
  4. Lipids: phospholipids; cholesterol

What type of ions carry the impulse across the synapse from one neuron to the next ?
grandymaker [24]

It's the sodium ion.

When a neural impulse is fired in both neurons, it is always cause by an excited electron in one neuron moving to the other neuron to destabilize the balance of ions trying to keep them at equilibrium. This action either depolarizes or hyper-polarizes the membrane. If it does, then sodium ions--the key deficient ones--can flow into that region of low charge and maintain that state of low charge, keeping the cell membrane stable.

Habitat: Coyotes are able to easily adapt to different habitats. They can be found living anywhere from the Sonoran Desert to large, populated cities.

Reproductive Process:  Reproduction<span> in the </span>coyote<span> is a very intricate </span>process<span>, as females are completely infertile for ten months out of the year, and males are sterile for eight. The </span>process<span> begins with several males vying for the attention of a single female.</span> In spring, females den and give birth to litters of three to twelve pups. Both parents feed and protect their young and their territory.
Human and Environmental Challenges: Coyotes face many challenges. They are often hunted by other larger animals. Humans also hunt them when they are interfering with their crops or livestock.
Migration pattern: <span>According to a study, coyotes migrated eastward via two main route: one that went through the northern United States, and one that went through the south. Oddly enough, the Northern and Southern coyotes seemed to meet midway</span>

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

White blood cells can be called the strong defender of our body from foreign substances. These cells are responsible for increasing the immunity power of a person.

Explanation:

Monocytes cells are also called white blood cells. These cells play a role an antigen that fight with outer danger and protect other white blood cells as well and prepare other cells to reduce the dead blood cells and renovate new blood cells.

These cells prevent cancer cells and fight against foreign antigens or particles. The Monocytes are the cells that develop in the bone marrow of a person and develop red blood cells.

In white blood cells, some macrophages cells are called the scavengers in the bone marrow that eat foreign particles and increase the immunity power of the person. The diagnose can be done with the help of blood testing.
