-How do you think andioxidants can help cells perform their functions? -Why do plants have more antioxidants than humans? -Do you think this can be related to structure? How? - How can you relate diet to cell structure and function?

Antioxidants help cells perform their functions against something called free radicals. Free radicals are molecules that happen to be produced when your body breaks down food and/or when you inhale or are exposed to tobacco products. These molecules play a role in leading to diseases such as; Heart disease and cancer. When plants synthesize, they collect many non-enzymatic Antioxidants like ascorbic acid and phenolic. Since plants have many more sites of ROS generation, Therefore, they could evolve more efficient non-enzymatic Antioxidant systems than humans because of their high intake and exposure to oxygen. (answer yourself about the structure in your own words using the information I gave you). Diet relates to both the function, structure and health of your cells. Having a balanced diet helps your cells to happily work and produce energy for your daily use. A balanced diet supplies your body with nutrients so it can work effectively. Without balanced nutrition, your body is way more prone to disease, fatigue, low performance and infections.

I hope this helped you!

the principle of segregation describes how pairs of gene variants are separated into reproductive cells. from his data, mendel formulated the principle of segregation. we now know that the segregation of genes occurs during meiosis in eukaryotes, which is a process that produces reproductive cells called gametes.
