Biology
1 answer:
lisabon 2012 [21]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Decomposers and scavengers break down dead plants and animals. They also break down the waste (poop) of other organisms. Decomposers are very important for any ecosystem. If they weren't in the ecosystem, the plants would not get essential nutrients, and dead matter and waste would pile up.

Why don't people's cells starve from lack of glucose while they are fasting​
GenaCL600 [577]
Answer:


Fasting can definitely raise blood glucose. This is due to the effect of insulin falling and the rising counter-regulatory hormones including increased sympathetic tone, noradrenaline, cortisol and growth hormone, in addition to glucagon. These all have the effect of pushing glucose from liver storage into the blood. This is normal. If you are not eating, you want to use some stored glucose. The question is this – if you are not eating, and your blood glucose went up, where did that glucose come from? It can only have come from your own body (liver). So, it’s a natural phenomenon, and the fasting now allows your body to use some of the glucose for energy.

The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is?
Korolek [52]

The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is saturated fat.

<h3>What about saturated fat?</h3>
  • Because they increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in our blood, saturated fats, sometimes known as "bad fats," increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders (including heart disease and stroke).
  • Cholesterol that is circulated in the blood.
  • The majority of this cholesterol is produced by the body, however some is also absorbed from the meals you eat.
  • Even if they include fat, foods derived from plants never contain cholesterol.
  • Only foods from animals do. Low density lipoproteins are able to transport cholesterol.
  • Dietary fat, particularly saturated and trans fats, may increase LDL and total cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • Blood cholesterol levels may be lowered by substituting polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, particularly olive and canola oil, for some saturated fats.
  • When we consume too much saturated fat, the receptors stop functioning as effectively, and blood cholesterol levels rise.
