The constant turnover of body tissues requires the ______ supplied by carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids
Lera25 [3.4K]

The constant turnover of body tissues requires the <u>chemical energy </u>supplied by carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.

<h3> What is Chemical energy?</h3>
  • The bonds of chemical molecules contain energy.
  • Exothermic reactions are those in which chemical energy is released during the reaction, frequently in the form of heat.
  • Some of the heat energy needed for a reaction to continue can be stored as chemical energy in newly created bonds.
  • The body transforms the chemical energy in food into heat and mechanical energy.
  • At a power plant, coal's chemical energy is transformed into electrical energy. Through the process of electrolysis, the chemical energy in a battery can also generate electricity.

Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator (5 C), out on a lab bench top (22 C), on the shelf
Setler79 [48]

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

  • Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
  • Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
  • Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
  • Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
  • In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
  • Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
  • Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.
