Are proteins, lipids, starch, sugar, calcium (ion), iron (ion), and chlorine (ion) found in blood plasma? if they are explain its function in the body.

1.Proteins. Proteins are found in the blood plasma and all over the body. The functions of protein include: repair and maintenance of body tissue, they are components of some hormones e.g. insulin,  they make up enzymes, they make up transport molecules such as hemoglobin.

Lipids. These are used for energy storage and production. They provide energy for muscle and body processes.

Starch. Starch is converted into glucose for energy in the body.

Sugar . Sugar in the form of glucose is used by every cell in the body for energy.

Calcium.  A mineral that is used by the body for building and keeping bones and teeth strong.

Chloride (NOT chlorine)ion. Acts as  an electrolyte in the body.

Iron. Iron is an essential element of hemoglobin in the red blood cells .

the generally accepted parts of modern cell theory include: all known living things are made up of one or more cells. all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division. the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms.
