Why are fats a better source of energy than carbohydrates on a per carbon basis?.

Biology
1 answer:
adoni [48]2 years ago
4 0

Fats are a better source of energy than carbohydrates on a per carbon basis because one triglyceride molecule yields three fatty acid molecules.

<h3>What is Fat?</h3>

This is an important energy source in the body and is usually stored in the body under adipose tissues.

They contain triglyceride with as much as 16 or more carbons in each one which helps to generate energy in a slow and efficient manner.

In what way do the nervous and endocrine systems differ in a way
Simora [160]

The nervous system communicates through electrical impulses and the communication is very fast. It works in a relay fashion, from point to point comparable to the way the old telephones systems used to work.

The endocrine system communicates by chemical signals via the bloodstream. Hormones are secreted into the blood and extra cellular fluids, then transported to target cells, which must bear a receptor to be able to bind to a specific hormone, and respond. 

Hormones are chemical messengers secreted into blood or extracellular fluid that affect the function of other cells.

Endocrine communication is not quite as fast as the nervous system communication

All of the following events occur during normal meiosis except _______. A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell B. on
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

A. two haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division. When a parent cell with "2n" chromosomes enters the process of meiosis, four daughter cells each with "n" chromosomes are formed. This occurs since homologous chromosomes separate from each other during anaphase-I. However, meiosis does not include the fusion of two haploid cells. The fusion of two haploid cells mainly occurs during the process of fertilization during which a haploid male gamete and a haploid female gamete fuse to form a diploid zygote.

If Avery had observed transformation using only the extracts containing degraded DNA, degraded RNA, and degraded protein, but NO
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Polysaccharides are the genetic material.

Explanation:

Avery did not observe transformation using the extracts containing degraded DNA. On the other hand, extracts with degraded RNA, proteins, and polysaccharides exhibited transformation. Therefore, he concluded that DNA is the genetic material responsible for transformation. If he would have observed the process of transformation using extracts containing degraded DNA but not with degraded polysaccharides, he might have concluded that "polysaccharides were the genetic material responsible for the process of transformation."
