Answer:

The correct answer is E) eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes are organisms with bilateral symmetry, although their organs are coiled, sometimes one of the limbs is lost and many of sedentary life tend to radial symmetry. One of the most striking characteristics of these animals is that their growth is not produced by an increase in the number of cells that compose them, but by an increase in the size of the already existing cells; in fact, in most adult tissues the number of cells is constant, a phenomenon known as eutelia.

Eutelia is the condition of an organism composed of a constant number of cells or syncytial nuclei in all adult individuals of a species, such as nematodes, it means that body growth is not carried out by increasing the number of cells but by the growth of existing cells.

Triacylglycerols (triglycerides) are composed of fatty acid residues and glycerol. (because by the reaction between glycerol and 3 long chain fatty acid triglycerides formation occurs and form 3 ester linkages).

Fats that contain more unsaturated fatty acid residues than saturated fatty acid residues are more likely to be liquid at room temperature. (because saturated fats are solid at room temperature and unsaturated fats are liquid at room temperature).
