Hi,

Answer: The Liver

<u>My work:</u> Carbohydrates are usually located and converted in the Liver.

<u><em>Extra Information:</em></u> The body uses Carbohydrates as glucose. From there glucose can be converted to glycogen.

<u><em>Words you might not know:</em></u>

1) Converted - To change.

2) Glucose - Energy source.

3) Glycogen - Stores Carbohydrates

I Hope I Helped!

The human body uses carbohydrates in the form of glucose. Glucose can be converted to glycogen, a polysaccharide similar to starch, which is stored in the liver and the muscles and is a readily available source of energy for the body.

Carbohydrates are found on the outer surface of all eukaryotic cell membranes and are attached to mostly the membrane proteins & sometime phospholipids.

Explanation: Amino acids are absorbed via a Sodium cotransporter, in a similar mechanism to the monosaccharides. They are then transported across the alabaster membrane via facilitated diffusion. Di and tripeptides are absorbed via separate H+ dependent cotransporters and once inside the cell are hydrolyzed to amino acids.

Ground squirrels are found in many areas of the United States. They live in underground burrows and are often attacked by birds
Ket [755]

The population of the ground squirrels will be limited by the population of the hawks. The population of the hawks, thus, will be a limiting factor for the population of the ground squirrels. The Hawks are the birds of prey that feeds on squirrels. With the increased number of hawks in the same area as them will put these squirrels in danger. The population of the tree squirrels, however, will have no affect on the population of the ground squirrels. The genetic variability and breeding season are not limiting factors for their population either.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - a population of hawks'.
