Biology
2 answers:
Klio2033 [76]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer would be "They are stored as fat".

In animals, the excess of carbohydrates or glucose is first converted into glycogen (polysaccharide) through the process called glycogenesis. It is then stored in the liver and skeletal muscles.

When glycogen reservoirs are saturated, excess carbohydrates, as well as proteins, are converted into fats which are then majorly stored in adipose tissues.

Adipose tissues serve as the long-term energy storage reservoirs.

Why is the Lancelet a chordate, but not a vertebrate?
nika2105 [10]

Lancelet is a chordate but not a vertebrate because it lacks a backbone

Explanation:

The subphyla of the phylum Chordata are - Vertebrata, Urochordata and cephalochordate

Those chordates with a structural backbone belong to Vertebrata.

Urochordates and cephalochordates lack a backbone and hence are termed invertebrate chordates.

Lancelet is an invertebrate chordate of the subphylum – Cephalochordata.  

The lancelets consist of a notochord that extends right from the head till the tail at the dorsal surface. The notochord acts like the backbone and provides support and a semi-flexible structure to aid in the movement of the organism.

They lack a developed nervous system like vertebrates but only has a dorsal nerve tube .

vampirchik [111]
<span>Glycolysis is a process that can be seen as occurring in eukaryotic cells. This process is active when cellular energy levels are low; and the regulatory enzyme is inhibited by ATP. This process releases energy that is labeled as 'free'. After this process the released energy goes to form ATP molecules, which are high in energy.</span>
