Essential fatty acids are constituent fatty acids and those that are not solely used as fuel for the body. These fatty acids cannot be synthesized by the body but are required in the diet. They include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.

Fats are distributed differently in the body depending on sex. Females sex tend to store their fat in the gluteal-femoral region while men store their fats majorly in visceral (abdominal) regions.

What happens during the lysogenic cycle of a viral infection?
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The lysogenic phase of a viral infection is when the virus injects its DNA into the cell. Instead of the DNA being replicated and then formed into new viruses (lytic), the virus' genome is incorporated into the HOST DNA genome by Recombination.

Essentially the viral DNA inserts itself to the host genome, also has all of its mRNA protein coding regions deactivated to prevent it damaging the host. Think of it like a dormancy stage where it divides along with the host

What is the world health organization definition of health?
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: WHO defines health as something that goes beyond the absence of disease.

Explanation: Health can be defined as a state of physical, mental, and social well-being. For a long time, it was believed that health is simply not having a disease. Over time, this has been changing since a person who is well physically but not mentally, is someone who is not healthy.

The well-being of a person involves more than not being sick. It involves feeling good in all aspects, where the person is able to deal with everyday situations.
