Answer:

b. Hydrogen-carbon

Explanation:

Triglycerides, also called fats are fatty acid esters of glycerol. One molecule of triglyceride consists of three fatty acids linked to one glycerol by ester linkages. Fatty acids are hydrocarbon derivatives with a long hydrocarbon chain in which carbon atoms are bonded to hydrogen atoms by covalent bonds. The carbon-hydrogen bond is one of the bonds with high energy levels. Therefore, the energy of triglycerides is stored in carbon-hydrogen bonds of hydrocarbon chains of fatty acids.

Answer:

The right answer is B. The offspring are genetically distinct ... by sexual reproduction.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction, as opposed to asexual reproduction, indicates that the propagation of a species involves male and female gametes. It is the main method of reproduction of multicellular organisms.

In the first stage of sexual reproduction, meiosis, the number of chromosomes is reduced from a diploid number (2n) to a haploid number (n). During fertilization ("fertilization"), haploid gametes come together to form a diploid zygote and restore the initial number of chromosomes (2n).
