<h2>The correct answer is: Mutualism.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Mutualism can be defined as a type of symbiotic relationship.
  • Symbiosis can be defined as the type of ecological interplay in between two species localized in the same habitat in which at least one of the species gets benefited in the form of food, shelter or protection due to the interaction.
  • Mutualism is a type of positive symbiosis in which both the species involved in the ecological interplay benefits due to the interaction in between them.
  • In the given question, some micro-organisms survive in the digestive tract of the cattle.
  • These micro-organisms produce the enzyme, cellulase, which helps in digesting cellulose present in the food consumed by the cattle.
  • The cattle is incapable of producing this cellulase enzyme by itself and is dependent on the micro-organisms for its synthesis.
  • Hence, the the micro-organisms help the cattle in obtaining nutrition and energy by the digestion of cellulose.
  • On the other hand, the micro-organisms get shelter, nutrition and protection in the gut of the cattle.

If you were to compute this, Angle C should be equal to 100°.

In a triangle, all angles sum up to 180°.

In triangle ABC, where the m∠A =30° and m∠50°:

m
∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
30° + 50 + m∠C = 180°
80° + m∠C = 180°
m∠C = 180° - 80°
m∠C = 100°

The triangle should look like the picture attached.

The triglycerides in animals tend to be solids (i.e., fats) at room temperature whereas the triglycerides in plants tend to be l
aev [14]

Answer:

The animal triglycerides have a higher proportion of saturated fatty acids than the plant triglycerides.

Explanation:

The triglycerides have three fatty acids attached to the single glycerol molecule by ester linkage. The fatty acids may be saturated or unsaturated. The triglycerides with saturated fatty acids such as the animal triglycerides exhibit a relatively tight packing of these fatty acids and make them solid at room temperature.

On the other hand, the triglycerides with unsaturated fatty acids such as the plant triglycerides are liquid at room temperature since the presence of double bonds in the hydrocarbon chains leads to weaker interactions and does not allow the tight packing of the fatty acids.
