Why do liquid crystals have an ITO coating? Why do ventricles have thicker walls than atria? Why does the large intestine absorb water? Why do capillaries need to be thin-walled? Why must water evaporate for sedimentary rock to form?
Why do lipids make effective cell membranes in living cells? Why do anabolism and catabolism occur at the same time? How much ATP stored per protein-carbohydrate lipid catabolism? Why are lipids good energy storage molecules? Is glycolysis considered catabolic or anabolic...and why?
Thaxton now hypothesizes that T cells may need a "delicate balance" of lipids to persist insolid tumorswith a certain amount of lipid dedicated to cancer cell assassination and low levels of fats being maintained in stores. The latest findings could prove to be useful in enhancingchimeric antig...
the cells, had to communicate and coordinate with each other. They now need to alert the rest of the body if they need something, for example, extra sugar or the attention of theimmune systemin case of an infection. Multicellular organisms also had to build efficient transport pathways (e.g...
Although seemingly simple, these vaccines rely on a critical packaging made of lipids (fat-like molecules) to protect, and to deliver, the mRNA into cells. The packaging is composed of lipid nanoparticles. These LNPs are usually made of four types of lipids, inclu...
the biosynthesis of other compounds they need, like amino acids and nucleotides for DNA. The hydrogen atoms from the glucose become incorporated into other organic compounds through these processes. All important biomolecules like DNA, RNA, lipids or fats, sugars and carbohydrates include hydrogen ...

Heart disease is a scary disease often treated with even scarier drugs—like statins! Statins (cholesterol lowering drugs) deplete the body of vital heart-nourishing nutrients and can do more harm than good! Coconut oil is full of heart-healing benefits and can help prevent the need for such ...
Why do mitochondria and chloroplasts have 2 bilayer lipids around them? Do prokaryotic cells have mitochondria? If so, what is the purpose of the mitochondria? Why is the cell membrane important to homeostasis? Why do cells need carrier proteins that transport glucose?
What are nonsquamous epithelial cells? Why do viruses need cells? Why do lipids make effective cell membranes in living cells? Why it is beneficial for cells to be small? What does epithelial cells in an HVS indicate? How does epithelial tissue structure relate to its function?
