Answer:

b. become part of the body's structural systems.

Explanation:

  • Minerals are the inorganic regulators needed for different functions inside the body.
  • Minerals donot provide energy but involved in generation of energ through their metabolic function. (Hence option A is excluded)
  • They provide a good medium for the protoplasmic activities (permeability of cell membrane and normal functioning of cell)
  • Maintaining bod fluid balance.
  • For structural units.
  • Cannot be degraded in the body neither can be destroyed while cooking ( Hence option c and d are excluded)
  • They become the part of the body's strctral systems (Hence option B is the right answer)

Are gender traits completley a result of societal expectatcions ?
Romashka [77]
Typically gender expression is heavily influenced by societal norms, but there are some traits that have been proven to be influenced my genetic makeup of males vs females. For example, girls tend to be drawn to more artistic expression because of the cone/rod ratio of their eyes, where as males have better perception of depth and speed, so they gravitate towards faster sports and race cars. Obviously this only has partial influence. Individuals have always ventured outside gender roles and norms. Some men express are in touch with their femininity and express it despite the stigma, and some women have more ‘male inclined’ personality traits. Of course, large political, philosophical, and religious movements have more impact, such as the feminist movement in the late 1960s-70s pushing females to act less in the traditional frame.

<h3>What is genetic engineering?</h3>

Genetic engineering has to do with the procedure by which the genetic composition of an organism is modified. This is often carried out in a laboratory so as to produce new species of an organism or for scientific research purpose. We know that interaction of genes is determined by Mendelian genetics and the patterns of inheritance have been the constant subject of study.

As such, if a Zebrafish have been genetically engineered to glow in the dark, the knowledge that can be gained from this is knowledge about how genes work in vertebrates. We know that fish is an aquatic vertebrate because it possesses back bone as does other vertebrates (presence of vetebral column).
