What are facts about fermentation?

What are the functions of peroxisomes?
The function of Peroxisomes (also no as Micro-bodies) is to break down a long chain of fatty acids. The micro-bodies break the fatty acids down and make it more manageable for the rest of the cells.
What process is used to combine the fatty acids and glycerol?
what is the process called that adds tree glycerol to 3 fatty acids? Glycerol is a sugar alcohol containing three hydrophillic hydroxyl groups. When these three OH groups are esterified with three fatty acids, the product is a triglyceride.
What substances can pass through the glomerulus?
Small Ions: Sodium/Potassium Ions Water Molecules Urea Molecules Other Waste Products ( Amino Acids)

What do Batteries do to the environment?

Why should acids stored away from the heat of the sun?
Some acids such as nitric(V) acid, may decompose by absorbing energy and reduce the acidic strength, when they are exposed to heat of the sun.
