This makes it more susceptible to damage by stomach acid. NSAIDs can also affect the flow of blood to the stomach, reducing the body's ability to repair cells. Other causes of peptic ulcers. Genetics: A significant number of individuals with peptic ulcers have close relatives with the same problem, suggesting that genetic factors may be involved.
Plants contain (actually, they manufacture them) many oils and sugars which animals (actually, mammals - don't know if other vertebrates and invertebrates store fat in the same way) eat and then process to use for fuel. Unused portions are stored in the body in the adipose tissues. So, while plants contain the basic ingredients of what we think of as fat, they don't store them in any kind of fatty tissue the way animals do, in what we think of generically as fat.. Plants don't eat a diet high in anything, good or bad.
Within plant cells are chloroplasts (KLAWR-uh-PLASTS), organelles in which the energy from sunlight is used to make sugar. Plants use some of the sugar immediately, to keep their cells functioning. The rest of the sugar is stored in the cells. Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts.As a result, animals are not able to use the energy of the Sun directly. Instead, animals get their energy from food. Much of the food an animal uses for energy comes from the sugar that plant cells have stored.ithin plant cells are chloroplasts (KLAWR-uh-PLASTS), organelles in which the energy from sunlight is used to make sugar.
