For each lipid described below, (I) classify it as a (i) sterol/steroid, (ii) terpene/terpenoid/isoprenoid (other than sterol/steroid), (iii) phospholipid or (iv) fat and (II) indicate its function: e.g. energy storage, membrane formation, cell signaling
A) Retanoic Acid
Homework Answers
I. (i). Sterol/steroid
Retinoic acid is a vitamin A derivative which belongs to steroid class of hormones.
II. Cell signalling
Retinoic acid is a ligand which binds to retinoic acid receptors. It has an important role in cell diffrentiation , growth and organogenesis.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
