as you drive along the roadside, you and your friend notice a dead deer that apparently was struck by a car. Your friend comment
s that she has never seen such a fat deer. "Did you see the size of its abdomen? It was huge!" As a student of forensics, how would you explain to your friend why the abdominal region of the dead deer was so large? CSI
If it is the abdomen and not the stomach area i would say its from the heat. if you've ever seen a dead animal on the side of the road over the course of a few days, they start to swell from the sun beating down on them all day.
Answer : The size of abdomen appeared to be huge because it stored stomach and many visceral organs.
When the dead deer was spotted by the person it appeared to be much bigger than usual because when the deer was hit by the car it remained there for several hours or may be days and nobody cleared that; From the sun's heat which was falling on the dead deer's body the internal organs were heated up, making them swelled and enlarged than their usual size.
Polysaccharides such as starch, glycogen, and dextrans are all stored in the liver and muscles to be converted to energy for later use. Amylose and Amylopectin are polysaccharides of starch.
The concentration of glucose outside the cell is higher than the concentration of glucose inside the cell, thus there is a concentration gradient. The molecules of glucose move randomly and there is a net movement from outside to the inside, down the concentration gradient.
