masha68 [24]
C. Insulating the body

Insulating the body is not a function of a protein.

Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation. 
<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.

Mnenie [13.5K]

The most common way these trees undergo pollination is through seeds and pollen.

The pollination is done with help of wind and birds where pollen transform from one plant to another.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The plants that undergoes pollination process through the seeds that are present in it are called as Angiosperms. These contains fruits. The seeds are usually present inside these fruits. Flowering plants are also called as Angiosperms.

These fruits and flowers are absent in gymnosperm. Even then they contain seeds inside the leaves surface. They will undergo pollination with these naked seeds. It is the fruits, flowers and the endosperm that are present in the seeds that help us to find difference between these two.  The only common thing that exists between these two are seeds and pollen with which they pollinate.

In gymnosperms, pollen is transferred from male cone to female cone through wind or birds. Now, the pollen is germinated into pollen tubes and sperm for egg fertilization.

Lets say -

Species X and Y is provided with insects, seeds and fruit.

Species X - Omnivorous

Species Y - Herbivorous

The species X will be able to eat the most as it is an Omnivore.

The omnivorous flock will eat the most as it eats both insects and seeds. With the removal of fruit it will not be affected much.

Species Y will be able to eat the least as it is an herbivore.

The herbivorous flock will eat the least as it has the option to eat seeds only after the removal of fruit.
