Why is the liver called hepar?

Hepar is the latin name for liver. It is in the nominative (subject) form. We are more familiar with the genitive form hepatis, from which medical terms are derived.


What help proteins form?

A class of proteins called chaperons. Two types. The chaperons are small proteins that meet the polypeptide chain as it comes off the ribosomes and helps in folding the nascent protein. Chaperonins are much larger barrel shaped protein complexes with entry ways. These complexes take misshapen proteins into themselves and reshape them.

The liver cells are bonding glycerol molecules together to form very long branched polymers called triglycerides or triacylglycerols. These molecules serve as a form of energy storage in the body.


Why are fatty acids not carried in the blood?

Fatty acids are carried in the blood by binding to a protein called albumin to form complexes known as serum albumin-fatty acid complexes. This binding prevents the free fatty acids from being released into the blood and causing harmful effects.

Why transition element in zero or lower oxidation sate form complexes with ligands like CO and NO?

Transition elements in zero or lower oxidation states have vacant d orbitals, making them more prone to form complexes with ligands like CO and NO through dative bonding. These ligands are able to donate electron density to the empty d orbitals of the metal ion, stabilizing the complex. Additionally, the small size and ability to form multiple bonds of ligands like CO and NO make them effective at forming stable complexes with transition metals.
