  2. Metabolic acidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_acidosis

    Metabolic acidosis is a serious electrolyte disorder characterized by an imbalance in the body's acid-base balance.Metabolic acidosis has three main root causes: increased acid production, loss of bicarbonate, and a reduced ability of the kidneys to excrete excess acids. [5]

  3. Acid–base homeostasis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid–base_homeostasis

    Acid–base homeostasis is the homeostatic regulation of the pH of the body's extracellular fluid (ECF). [1] The proper balance between the acids and bases (i.e. the pH) in the ECF is crucial for the normal physiology of the body—and for cellular metabolism . [ 1 ]

    Hydroid (botany), a type of vascular cell that occurs in certain bryophytes; Hydroid (zoology), a life stage for most animals of the class Hydrozoa; Garveia, a genus of cnidarians, including: Garveia annulata, the orange hydroid; Garveia arborea, the orange or hedgehog hydroid

  5. Parietal cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parietal_cell

    A canaliculus is an adaptation found on gastric parietal cells. It is a deep infolding, or little channel, which serves to increase the surface area, e.g. for secretion. The parietal cell membrane is dynamic; the numbers of canaliculi rise and fall according to secretory n

  6. Hydroid (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroid_(botany)

    A hydroid is a type of vascular cell that occurs in certain bryophytes. In some mosses such as members of the Polytrichaceae family, hydroids form the innermost layer of cells in the stem. At maturity they are long, colourless, thin walled cells of small diameter, containing water but no living protoplasm. Collectively, hydroids function as a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptoid

    A leptoid is a type of elongated food-conducting cell like phloem in the stems of some mosses, such as the family Polytrichaceae. [1] They surround strands of water-conducting hydroids.

  9. Amino acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid

    The two amino acid residues are linked through a peptide bond. As both the amine and carboxylic acid groups of amino acids can react to form amide bonds, one amino acid molecule can react with another and become joined through an amide linkage. This polymerization of amino acids is what creates proteins.
