Answer:
A) Lipids are a source of stored energy
Explanation:
Whereas carbohydrates provide a readily available source of energy, lipids function primarily as an energy reserve. The amount of lipids stored as an energy reserve far exceeds the energy stored as glycogen since the human body is simply not capable of storing as much glycogen compared to lipids.
Answer:
At least 17 PCR cycles or 16 PCR cycles
Explanation:
As we know -
In one chain of heating and cooling of polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the strands of DNA gets doubled.
The general mathematical representation of this is
where "n" is the number of PCR cycles.
It is given that DNA strands to be produced is 16 times the original quantity of DNA.
So the PCR cycle must be carried out at least 17 times in order to have DNA strand not less than 16 times the original quantity of DNA
Answer: The correct terms for completing the concept of energy and trophic levels are as follows-
a) Solar energy
b) Trophic levels
c) Heat
d) Tertiary consumers
e) Secondary consumers
f) Primary consumers
g) Primary producers
h) Decomposers.
Energy flow in an ecosystem is driven by solar energy that is captured and converted into chemical energy by primary producers ( like green plants and algae). The energy moves through different trophic levels according to the 10% law of energy transfer and the rest energy is released as heat.
Primary producers are eaten by primary consumers, which are eaten by secondary consumers that are eaten by tertiary consumers. The organic matter that becomes dead is ultimately decomposed with the help of decomposers.
Answer:
Triacylglycerols are acylglycerols with three fatty acid molecules, generally long chain, which can be the same or different; we speak of simple triacylglycerols when there is the same fatty acid in all three glycerol positions, but most are mixed triacylglycerols, with at least two different fatty acids. The properties of triacylglycerols will depend on the type of fatty acids they contain.
Most of the fats and oils of both animal origin (tallow, butter) and vegetable (olive, corn, sunflower, palm, and coconut oils) are formed almost exclusively by triacylglycerols.
Physiologically, triacylglycerols are an important energy reserve. In most eukaryotic cells, triacylglycerols are stored in the cytosol as microscopic fat droplets. In vertebrates there are specialized cells in the storage of fat, adipocytes. In humans, the presence of fatty tissue under the skin, in the abdominal cavity and in the mammary gland stands out.
The best answer would be B.
high sodium foods definitely cause edema. But alcohol also has a relationship with edema. Still best answer is b.
