I think the statement “the human digestive system is very efficient at squeezing everything it can out of any food?" refers to the way the stomach is good at absorbing the wanted nutrients and keeping them in the body, while disposing of the unwanted waste and toxins. The biomolecules are broken down to preserve only certain nutrients within the molecules.

The statement means that the human digestive system can adapt to extreme diets in order to survive. For example, carbohydrates can be broken down into sugars and used for energy. But when carbohydrates are not available in the required amount, it can also break down fats to provide the body with the required amount of energy. This explains why Deb has enough energy to keep going, even on her extremely limited diet.

37. Which of the following shows the correct relationship between monomers and polymers?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is the second option - glycerol and fatty acids combine to form lipids.

Explanation:

Lipids are a polymer or macromolecule, and the smaller pieces, or monomers, that make up lipids are glycerol and fatty acids.

Option 1 is incorrect because nucleotides are the monomer for nucleic acids, not proteins.

Option 3 is incorrect because amino acids combine to form proteins, not nucleic acids.

Option 4 is incorrect because polysaccharides are polymers (the monomer for carbohydrates is monosaccharides).

Hope this helps!

What is most likely to happen if an individual restricts consumption of dietary fat to very low levels
nadezda [96]

Nowadays, many people across the world are reducing the consumption of dietary fats to avoid the onset of chronic heart and kidney diseases. However, a low-fat diet is not always a great diet for health.

The fact is that all fats do not affect the body in same way. The refined and processed fats found in restaurant and packaged foods cannot be good to health. But natural fats have very healthy effects on us.

Fats perform many important functions in our body. They play important role in regulation of body temperature, weight management, nutrient absorption, boosting immune function,insulation of body organs and maintenance of healthy hair and nails.

A diet poor in fats can cause serious issues for the health of an individual, such as:

  • Poor Brain Function
  • Compromised Heart Health
  • Hormone Imbalances (Including Sex Hormones Testosterone and Estrogen)
  • Weight Gain and Overeating
  • Higher Risk of Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
  • Higher Risk for Depression and Anxiety
  • Gut-Related Problems

Therefore, a moderate intake of fats (>15 % of energy) is important to maintain a good health of the individual.
