Question 1

Which of the following is NOT an example of a common sterol?
◦ estrogen
◦ stearic acid
◦ vitamin D
◦ corticosteroid hormones

Question 2

Which of the following statements explains the chemical significance of the double bond and its placement in fatty acids?
◦ The double bond can form an infinite number of different configurations that dictate how the molecule is shaped in nature.
◦ The two isomers of conjugated linoleic acid are both eighteen carbons long and have two double bonds. One isomer has been found to reduce tumor growth and the other to reduce triacylglycerol synthesis, which can reduce body fat.
◦ The cis-double bond, as in oleic and linoleic acid, forms a bend in the molecule, so it fills more space, which makes all trans-fats bad and nonessential.
◦ Humans can consume enough of these compounds and benefit significantly from the two molecules known as conjugated linoleic acid.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Multiple experimental evidences have confirmed that at the molecular level, cancer is caused by lesions in cellular DNA.

Did you know?

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
