Answer:

The correct answer would be B. lipids.

Explanation:

Lipids are the compounds that are fatty acids or derivatives of the fatty acid that are insoluble in water and soluble in nonpolar solvents such as ether. These are some of the essential molecules of the bodies. these molecules have various functions in the body.

Such energy storage in the adipose tissues and utilize when there is not enough level of glucose, insulation: subcutaneous fats help in insulation as act as a blanket layer and insulate the body from external temperatures. Protection is also an essential function of lipids that protect the internal organs from shocks.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. lipids.

Georgia [21]
For a pre-event meal, rich sources of carbohydrates, such as bagels, muffins, and bread, should be eaten two to four hours before an endurance event.  Eating a calorie dense meal 2 to 4 hours before an endurance event or smaller meals between 2 to 5 hours before, is absolutely essential for topping of muscle glycogen levels as well as providing blood glucose for the intense activity ahead.

Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder in humans. If a man with Achondroplasia ( heterozygous) and a normal wo
tresset_1 [31]

Answer and Explanation:

Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism that affects the formation of cartilage; early in development, most of the skeleton is comprised of cartilage. Cartilage is a type of flexible, tough tissue; in achondroplasia ossification (conversion of cartilage to bone) is affected. Symptoms include an enlarged head, shorter upper and lower limbs, and limited motion at the elbow.

Punnett squares are illustrations that display the product of hybrid trait crosses by genetic breeding.

For this cross...

Assuming Achondroplasia= dominant

Parent generation or P generation:

gametes: An → Achondroplasia dominant (A), No Achondroplasia recessive (n)

Heterozygousity describes the allelic makeup; these traits comprise two varying forms of a  gene. However, homozygous traits comprise identical forms of the gene.

Male: An  →  with Achondroplasia

Female: nn → without Achondroplasia

genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring...

Assuming heterozygousity of the male , for the cross

P generation:                         An × nn

                          Achondroplasia   × No Achondroplasia

F1 generation:

genotype:                      An × nn       ...(from punnet square)

phenotype:          2 with Achondroplasia ; 2 without

∴ 50% are genotypically heterozygous while 50% is homozygous , 2 with Achondroplasia ; 2 without

The major difference between starch, glycogen, and cellulose and their adjacent glucose subunits is the ________.
sveta [45]

Answer:

<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.

Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.

Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.

Explain how a government is able to slow down or speed up the economy's rate of growth.<br>​
Ede4ka [16]
