Interpretation:
The
Concept introduction:
All types of organic molecules have their own specific type of functional group. Functional groups present in biological molecules play a major role in the formation of molecules such as carbohydrates, DNA, proteins and lipids. Functional groups can be named as carbonyl, hydroxyl, amino, methyl, sulfhydryl, phosphate, and carboxyl.
(b)
Interpretation:
The skeletal structure of PGE2 needs to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is known to be naturally occurring and helps in medication. It is used in the labor induction, termination of pregnancy, bleeding after delivery and also in the newborn babies in order to keep the duct arteries open. In babies with congenital heart defects it is used until surgery is carried out. It may be injected into the vagina or vein.
