Algae are photosynthetic, but they are also unicellular organisms (Euglena) and shares some of the common features with plants as well as animals. They move like animals and perform photosynthesis like plants. Therefore, they are classified into Protists, and not the Algae. Their most features resemble the non-photosynthetic protozoa, and not plants, and therefore, are put into the Protista. 
They also lack a cell wall, which is a feature of plants.
Some scientists advocate their classification in plants because of their sexual mode of reproductiona, and formation of spores.

How are the hyperglycemia and lipidemia of insulin linked?
OLga [1]

Hyperglycemia is a condition, in which the blood glucose level reaches above the normal levels. this condition is caused by the deficiency or inactivity of the insulin. Hyperglycemia occurs when the cell is not able to absorb sugar from the blood, as a result, a lack of sugar in the cells occurs.

In case of absence of sugars in the cells, the cells use fats as a source of energy. the metabolising of the fats result in the increase in the fatty acid levels in the blood. the presence of the fatty acids above than the normal level causes the lipedemia.

Hence, the hyperglycemia increases the risk of lipedemia.

mariarad [96]

Answer:

Carbon is stored

Fossil fuel deposits and the Earth’s oceans are two places in which <u>carbon</u> is stored

Explanation:

This is because the organisms that lived millions of years ago in the sea died off and their remains were compressed at the bottom of the ocean from carbon, thus creating the fossil fuels that we have today. This process took thousands of years.
