Answer: The correct answer is fat.

Explanation:

Though, our body uses carbohydrates as the primary source of energy but fats provide more energy and heat as compared to the carbs.

Each gram of fat provides 9 Kcal of energy as compared to 4 Kcal of energy produced by carbs or proteins.

In addition, fats or lipids are long term energy reserves of the body. So, they are able to provide you energy during long duration of physical activity such as hiking.

Fats also help in making an insulating layer around the body which decreases the surface lost of heat and thus, help in keeping you warm.

You must pack food that has high concentrations of fat and protein. Food like granola bars and canned meat are a good source of energy and heat. This is because the body breaks this food down easily converting it into usable energy. Though some people would suggest that you pack food that are high in carbohydrates, fats and proteins are long-term sources of energy that you would need for your hiking trip.

Hatshy [7]

Different people are affected by COVID-19 in various ways. The symptoms experienced by infected individuals have ranged widely, from little discomfort to serious sickness.

  • The susceptibility to and prognosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by coronavirus 2 or coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been found to vary greatly amongst individuals and populations.
  • Intervention in public health must take into account these variations and how they affect susceptibility to infection and the severity of disease.
  • The distinctions between the COVID-19 case profiles from China and North America may be due to regional variations in host, environmental, and healthcare-related factors.
  • These inter-population variances, together with intra-population variability, highlight the need to identify how health inequities and inequalities affect the public health response to COVID-19 and can help with preparing for the epidemic's resurgence.
