Answer:

Excess carbohydrates and fats are stored; excess proteins are not

Explanation:

There are many differences between proteins, carbohydrates and fats. They are each made of their own specific monomers. For example, proteins are made up of amino acids, fats are made up of fatty acids, and carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides.

Carbohydrates can be macromolecules, one example is starch.

Carbohydrates, fats and proteins all contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The only major difference is that proteins also contain nitrogen and can also contain small amounts of sulphur.

Hence, the answer is the last option, because where carbohydrates can be stored as starch or glycogen, and fats can be stored as fat cells, proteins cannot be stored and they are usually excreted as ammonia or urea.

Answer:

Coral reef bleaching

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer would be coral bleaching.</em>

Coral bleaching is generally define as the change in color that results from the expulsion of green symbiotic algae from the tissues of the coral.

The expulsion of symbiotic algae from the tissue of coral is usually caused by a change in stressor factors of ocean water such as light, temperature, nutrient.

<u>When the temperature of ocean water increases as a result of global warming, the vibrant color of corals may be lost because the change in stress condition usually leads to the degradation of the algal pigments or outright expulsion of the symbiotic algae from the tissue of the corals. When this happens, it leaves the coral tissues completely white and they are said to have been bleached.</u>
