Answer:

The human body can store 350-500 grams of glycogen in the body.

Explanation:

The glucose present in the body provides energy. The glucose each gram is changed to 4 kilo calories of energy which can be easily utilized by the body. The stored glycogen provides energy by converting to glucose. The muscle consist of around 400 gm of glycogen and the liver consist of 100 gm of glycogen.

The muscle uses this stored glycogen at the time of energy requirement. The liver also act as a reservoir of glycogen.

<span>The process is called Precipitation.

Water evaporated into the atmosphere. Due to the very low temperature of the atmosphere, the vapor condenses and it is turned back into a non-gaseous form, and because of gravity, it falls back to the ground in various forms, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. </span>

Answer:

a mutation in the germinal line changed the phenotype to bright flowers which were capable of attracting more pollinators compared to yellow flowers. Subsequently, this mutation was selected by natural selection, thereby increasing its frequency in the population

Explanation:

A mutation is any change in the nucleotide DNA sequence of the genome of a particular organism. Mutations can be divided into 1-germinal mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the gamete cells) which can be passed on to offspring, and 2-somatic mutations (i.e., mutations that occurred in the somatic cells), which cannot be inherited. Moreover, mutations can be neutral, deleterious or beneficial depending on the environment in which the organism lives. When a germinal mutation is beneficial, the organism carrying the mutation will have more chances to survive and reproduce (i.e., a higher adaptive fitness), thereby the organism will have more chance to pass this mutation to the next generation and the mutation will increase its frequency in the population.
