They consist of a chain of carbon and hydrogen atoms with an acid group on one end and a methyl group at the other end. d. The short-chain fatty acids of meats and seafood are most common in the diet. e. Fatty acids are organic compounds.

Answer 1

1. Ribosome can be thought of as a PROTEIN MAKING MACHINE

2.Intestinal tripeptidase cleaves TRIPEPTIDES and they turn them into amino acids.

3. Here CHYLOMICRON is not a group of lipoproteins

4. In epigenetics METHYLATION means addition of METHYL GROUP.

5.The ETS or the electron transport system capture ENERGY IN THE ATP bonds.

6.Women are less tolerant to alcohol because they produce LESS OF THE STOMACH ENZYME ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE.

7. The extra protein intake is stored in the liver.

8. Among the options the one which is not a work of adipose tissue is to secrete ENZYME THAT HELPS IN REGUALTING THE ENERGY BALANCE.
