Answer:

Although lipids have a "backbone," they are not true biological polymers as their backbone is a three carbon molecule, glycerol, with longer substituent "side chains." For this reason, only proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids should be considered as biological macromolecules with polymeric backbones.

When a neuron carries the electrical potential of _____ millivolts, it is in the state called _____?
Finger [1]
When a neuron carries the electrical potential of -70 millivolts, it is in the state called RESTING POTENTIAL. At the resting stage of the neuron, the inside of the neuron is 70 millivolts less than the outside. At this stage, there are more sodium ions outside the neuron and more potassium ions inside the neuron.

Scientists at Russia’s Vostok Station in eastern Antarctica drilled the longest ice core ever recorded. They compiled this graph
Wittaler [7]
The data supports the fourth choice, that increasing air temperature and CO2 levels correlate with a decrease in dust concentration.

The first choice is unlikely to reflect dust concentration, and is more likely to be for air temperature. The second choice is false, because the dust concentration is more of a decreasing trend. The third choice is not true, as the spikes in air temperature and atmospheric CO2 concentrations seem to occur simultaneously, implying a positive correlation.

Ovarian follicles cells produce estrogen, which is a steroid. What organelle will be present in abundance so that the follicles
zloy xaker [14]

The steroids are produced by the Smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

The cells, which are involved in the secretion of the steroid molecules have an abundant number of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, which is abbrevated as SER.

The cells present in the ovary and the testis have a large number of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. The abundant number of smoothe endoplasmic reticulum allow them to produce a large amount of steroid molecule to produce the steroid hormones estrogen and testosterone.

Hence, in this case, the ovarian cells would have a large number of SER.
