comment Why is important to get saturated fatty acids from diet?
That I was thinking too. The question is put forward by my professor and I cannot find any reason why it is important to get saturated fatty acids from diet.

comment Can we use Acetyl Phosphate instead of Acetyl CoA in TCA?
No, I am not asking if Acetyl group can enter TCA cycle directly. I am asking if Acetyl Phosphate can enter TCA cycle directly. So I am asking if citrate synthase can use acetyl phosphate as an alternative substrate. If no, why?

comment Why our body does not produce polyunsaturated fatty acids?
I am interested on the biochemical sides, not on epidemiological. However, good point to bring the epidemiological sides too.

comment What are the tissues affected by thyroid hormone called?
@nico Your change suggests me that there is no general name for those tissues affected. I found this sentence: "There does not seem to be - - tissues not affected by thyroid hormone". So Cardiovascular system, Central Nervous system and Reproductive system are affected. - vivo.colostate.edu/hbooks/pathphys/endocrine/thyroid/…

comment Why glycoproteins are better than non-glycoproteins in fulfilling biological tasks?
@AlanBoyd I completely agree with you. The thing is that the teacher wants explanations why some thing is better than other. I however do not see any sense in it. It is like comparing bananas with apples.

comment Decreasing the alcohol proof and faster in hangover, why?
@nico I am not sure whether your point is the case here. Like taking "shot, wine, shot, beer, shot" will get you faster down than "beer, wine, shot, shot, shot". I do not know why, but the changing alcohol proof seems to affect some structures in the brain or tissues that affect your motor functions or memory. So in the first, there are two decreases, while in the latter zero.

comment Decreasing the alcohol proof and faster in hangover, why?
@nico I am interested in the both cases. I do not know why decreasing the alcohol proof causes faster intoxication. Can you please explain.

comment Are CN3, CN7, CN9 and CN10 the only Parasymphatetic Cranial Nerves?
Thank you! I was confused by the definition of the word itself "cranial". Parasympathetic Cranial Nerve only means parasympathetic neurons that arise from the brain. So the elements of brainstem like the lower parts of Medulla Oblongata still belongs to the brain.

comment What are all possible vectors for unicellular human parasites?
Note that if you can answer broader to the question I will accept your answer. It is very difficult for me to accept my own answer so please answer to the question such that your answer is outside of the standard textbooks.

comment How do fibers control muscles?
@Kevin so the thing includes the two things. I know about the first one that myelin is used in some cases as a resistant. I know about the last one that there are transmitter substances like acetylcholine that is released from the end of the axon to the extracellular space that activates the action potential in some other cells by attaching to receptors of other cells. So there is a synapse going on between neurons. - Those things should apparently apply to the above examples. However, not sure how m. ciliaris is in connection with m. sphincter pupillae. Fibers activating muscles in sequence?
