The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is saturated fat.

<h3>What about saturated fat?</h3>
  • Because they increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in our blood, saturated fats, sometimes known as "bad fats," increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders (including heart disease and stroke).
  • Cholesterol that is circulated in the blood.
  • The majority of this cholesterol is produced by the body, however some is also absorbed from the meals you eat.
  • Even if they include fat, foods derived from plants never contain cholesterol.
  • Only foods from animals do. Low density lipoproteins are able to transport cholesterol.
  • Dietary fat, particularly saturated and trans fats, may increase LDL and total cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • Blood cholesterol levels may be lowered by substituting polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, particularly olive and canola oil, for some saturated fats.
  • When we consume too much saturated fat, the receptors stop functioning as effectively, and blood cholesterol levels rise.

In samples of DNA isolated from two unidentified species in bacteria, X and Y adenine makes up 32% and 17%, respectively, of the
Vikki [24]

Answer:

On the basis of Chargaff's rule, in a double-helical DNA, A = T and G = C (Here A means adenine, T means thymine, G means guanine, and C means cytosine. For X, A is given 32%, therefore, T must be 32%, and the leftover 36% is to be distributed equally between G and C. Thus, G = C = 18% each.  

The assumption formed is that the DNA is a double-stranded structure. The species that exhibits higher G + C content in the molecule of a DNA is steadier at higher temperatures as it melts at high temperature. The species Y, which exhibits G + C in total as 66% is the thermophilic bacterium between the two.

On a backpacking trip, Kenny hikes all day at a steady pace, covering 30 kilometers and burning 4000 Calories. At the school tra
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

A. If the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt."

D. The rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.

Explanation:

It is important to consider that Kenny hikes all day but at a steady pace, whereas Janelle runs very fast. So Kenny's case, the supply of oxygen is sufficient to maintain aerobic respiration within the muscle cells. During this process only CO2, Water, and ATP are produced; therefore, there is no oxygen debt. We should keep in mind that the body shifts to anaerobic metabolism only when the supply of oxygen is limited.

In Janelle's case, running fast would need energy at higher rates and the supply of oxygen would not be sufficient to generate a high amount of ATPs. Therefore, to compensate for this deficiency, cells will start fermenting glucose to lactic acid and produce ATP and maintain energy demands. This lactic acid causes fatigue and this is why Janelle has aching and breathing hard. Breathing hard is also automatic reflux to inhale more oxygen and meet oxygen demands but even breathing hard would not be able to make it and the body will shift to anaerobic respiration automatically.
