What is true about the absorption and storage of fat-soluble versus water-soluble vitamins in the body?

Biology
1 answer:
rodikova [14]4 years ago
7 0
The right answer is "<span>fat soluble are stored in the liver and fatty tissue ...".

Lipids are essentially stored as fatty acids in the cytoplasm of adipocytes. All of these cells form adipose tissue, commonly called "fat".These reserves are much larger in quantity than the reserves in the form of glycogen, in the human body.

"<span>water-soluble vitamins can build to toxic levels ..." is false, hydrosoluble vitamins are rarely toxic, even at high concentrations, and even if they are toxic (which is very rare) is it not due to their circulation in the bloodstream, it is due to their accumulation in cells.</span>

A species with narrow niches that can survive in a small range of environmental conditions are
Ugo [173]

Answer:

D. Specialist Species

<h2>What is the advantage for species to be specialists, and how can they survive in the presence of opportunistic/generalist species?</h2>

In the setting of specialized habitats or unique situations, specialized species exist. When those conditions and surroundings change, they must adapt or go extinct, thus they must survive while they still exist.

When compared to generalists, they have the benefit of efficiency, which increases the likelihood of survival and, hence, reproduction within certain settings or situations. The generalists, on the other hand, have the benefit of being able to survive in a larger variety of circumstances and have a higher probability of doing so.

Cactuses, which are plants adapted to dry environments, are an example of specialization. More generalist plant species would typically outcompete cacti in most habitats on Earth, but very few of such species could endure the harsh conditions of a desert.

Extreme environmental conditions, competition for limited resources, and "evolutionary arms races" are some of the pressures that cause specialization. Cheetahs sprint quickly both because their prey moves quickly and because quicker cheetahs will be more effective hunters and more likely to procreate. The advantage of specialization is clear when seen from the standpoint of catching the next meal on a daily basis.

My key argument is that specialization's benefits must always be viewed in the context of the environment that generated the selective pressure that resulted in specialization. Although experts are specialists because they must be, their specializations put them in danger.
