If 2500 protein is consumed and its 35% energy is provided by protein then:

2500÷35×100 =875 kcal would be provided by protein.

As one gram of protein provide 4 kcal of energy:

875÷4 = 218.75 grams of potein would be consumed.

Which lipoprotein carries cholesterol to the cells in your body, but can get stuck in arteries while traveling in the blood, dep
Viktor [21]

LDL (low-density lipoprotein) carry cholesterol from the liver to the tissues and can contribute to the formation of plaque that builds up in the arteries.

<h3>What are lipids?</h3>

Lipids are soluble in fat and to circulate in the blood, which is an aqueous medium, they form lipoprotein complexes called lipoproteins, these constitute a transport medium and circulating reservoir for lipids.

<h3>Characteristics of LDL (low-density lipoprotein)</h3>

  • Low-density lipoproteins, composed of 50% triglycerides, are the ones that transport the lipids synthesized in the liver to other parts of the body.

  • LDL, composed mainly of cholesterol, when in excess, also deposits it on the walls of the arteries, contributing to the formation of plaque.

Therefore, we can conclude that excess LDL (low-density lipoprotein) poses a health risk because it facilitates the accumulation of fat in the arteries.

Answer:

C. Only 1, 3 and 4

Explanation:

Deforestation is the process of cutting down trees by man, which eventually lead to the the sparseness of trees in otherwise forested areas. The reasons for cutting  trees by man may include: habitation by man, clearing the land for agriculture or grazing, or using the timber for fuel, construction or manufacturing as well as mining of minerals.

Deforestation leads to many adverse effects on both man and his environment. These adverse effects include:

Loss of biodiversity in the forests which may lead to extinction of species.; when forest areas are cleared, plants and animals who live in these forests lose their homes and some may eventually die off due to inability to survive in other habitats

Increase in temperature of the earth: Trees serves to cool the earth by removing some gases which cause heating of the earth from the earth. Such gases include carbon dioxide. When these tree are removed, these gases accumulate in the atmosphere leading to increase in earth's temperature.

Also, since tree absorb some gases while releasing others into the atmosphere, when these trees are cut, there would be an imbalance of these atmospheric gases.

The diagram represents the ____________ formula of glucose.
defon
The answer is D) Structural

That is because we can automatically cross A out, and B is not the answer because ionic compounds aren't polyatomic. Poly atomic atoms are covalent and have no charge. While on the other hand, ions have a charge.
Also, C is not the answer because the molecular formula for glucose is <span>C6H12O6, that leaves us with choice D.
</span>
I can pretty much conclude that D is the answer because you can see that the picture, it has a structure for the compound. Its showing us how the atoms are bonded and structured.
