Vitamin A. Vitamin A was the first fat-soluble vitamin identified (in 1913). Vitamin A comprises the preformed retinoids, plus the precursor forms, the provitamin A carotenoids. Preformed retinoids is a collective term for retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid, all of which are biologically active.etinoids are converted to retinol in the intestines and transported with dietary fat to the liver, where it is stored. A special transport protein, retinolbinding protein (RBP), transports vitamin A from the liver to other tissues. Carotenoids are absorbed intact at a much lower absorption rate than retinol.
Mopar is the parts, service and customer care organization within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Mopar also designs and builds a small number of customized vehicles. The name derives from a combination of letters from the words MOtor and PARts.
âThe Mopar brand was officially trademarked in 1937 at a meeting of the Chrysler Parts Corporations Activities Council in Highland Park, Mich. The committee mulled over a list of names for Chryslerâs anti-freeze product and came up with 'MoPar,' a contraction of the words MOtor and PARts. Mopar became a brand name for most Chrysler Corporation parts, and gradually evolved into the name of the parts business itself. The moniker was officially attached to a Chrysler parts organization in the late 1960s, when Chrysler created an aftermarket business unit named the Mopar Division.
