Which fatty acid contains its first double bond on the sixth omega carbon?

Biology

Gnom [1K]2 years ago
6 0
Using the Omega system of determining the location of the double bond, the numbering will start at the opposite end of the carboxyl end. If the first double bond appear on the SIXTH omega carbon, then it is an omega-6 fatty acid. These fatty acid are unsaturated because of the presence of one or 2 double bonds.

As the salamander’s wound heals, it’s body cells are dividing to repair the damage. How is this type of cell division similar to
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Wound healing is a process to regenerate cells at the site of an injury or infection. Asexual reproduction is a process in which daughter cells are produced from a single cell or organism.

The wound healing process is similar to asexual reproduction because both the processes use mitosis for cell division. As a result of mitosis, two daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cells. Hence, during wound healing and asexual reproduction, the same cells as the parent cells are produced.

If all the macromolecules are made mainly of the elements CHO, how are they different?
Elanso [62]
The four main classes of organic compounds (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) that are essential to the proper functioning of all living things are known as polymers or macromolecules. All of these compounds are built primarily of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen but in different ratios. This gives each compound different properties. Carbohydrates are used by the body for energy and structural support in cell walls of plants and exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans. They are made of smaller subunits called nionosaccharides. Monosaccharides have carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a 1:2:1 ratio. Monosaccharides or simple sugars include glucose, galactose, and fructose. Although their chemical formulas are the same, they have different structural formulas. These simple sugars combine to make disaccharides (double sugars like sucrose) and polysaccharides (long chains like cellulose, chitin, and glycogen). Color code the glucose molecule on this worksheet (carbon-black, hydrogenyellow, and oxygen-red). Use your textbook to help draw the structural formulas for fructose and galactose:
