The three correct answers are;

B. forming waxy leaf coverings

D. storing energy in fat cells

E. forming cell membranes

Lipids are a large group of biological molecules that include phospholipids, fats, oils, waxes and some steroids. Almost all lipids are hydrophobic (i.e. insoluble in water). Lipids play many important different functions in a cell. Lipids are vital component of all cellular membranes. They store energy in the form of fats in the body. Waxy coverings on some leaves are composed of lipids. Lipids are also essential for heat insulation, cellular communication and protection.

Luda [366]

Answer:

Third-degree burns destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred.

Explanation:

The treatment of third-degree burns may require the process of skin grafting or the use of synthetic skin. Severe burns covering large parts of the body may need more intensive treatments such as intravenous (IV) antibiotics to prevent infection or IV fluids to replace fluids lost when skin was burned.

There are no available answers for you questions but I will try to answer them as best as I can. Chromosomes are responsible for carrying DNA or the genetic material that makes an organism unique from the other. They carry the traits that make a plant, a plant organism, an animal, an animal, and bacterium, bacteria. Aside from this, chromosomes carry strands of proteins that make it possible for cells to undergo cellular division. Chromosomes are also responsible for many chemical processes that occur within the cell which ultimately make life a cycle.

A researcher is designing a laboratory experiment to determine whether the inorganic substance A affects the rate of a reaction
nlexa [21]
The corrrect option is D.
Since the scientist was trying to determine if substance A affect the rate of reaction of X and Y, the best thing to do is to make substance X and Y to react together first, he should then measure the time taken for the reaction to take place. Next, he should make X and Y to react together again, but this time in the presence of A. The time taken for the reaction to occur should be measures. The scientist can now compared the two time measurements and decide if there are difference between them or not.
