D.

This is so since the average person (with activity) stores enough glycogen to last him 12 to 14 hours.

Answer:

C. 12–14 hours

Explanation:

Glycogen is a polysaccharide that serves as a source of energy for the human body. It can be stored in the human body at rest for 12-14 hours.

Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles of the skeleton that serves as a source of energy when the body requires it (for example during exercise or when the body has a reduced amount of glucose in the body)

What’s the difference between a standing defense and an induced defense?

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

The correct answer is: 4) Standing defenses are always present; induced defenses develop in response to a threat

Induced defense is defense that can be changed or invoked when needed. Induced defenses are slow to happen. When invoked, induced defense requires energy but otherwise doesn’t.

Standing defense is always there. It is use, for example when predation is a constant threat.

If a father is affected by an X-linked dominant condition and the mother is not, which children can inherit the condition?

kaheart [24]

Answer:

only females

Explanation:

In humans, sex chromosomes in males and females are different. The sex chromosomes found in humans are X and Y chromosomes. X-linked trait is a trait which is inherited on the X- chromosome. According to the question, the trait is passed on a X-linked dominant condition, which means the condition is inherited on the abnormal dominant X-chromosome that will express itself even when in an heterozygous state with a normal X-chromosome.

Hence, a father affected by the condition will have a genotype; XY while a mother that does not have the condition will have a genotype: xx (two normal x chromosomes). Since the Father can only pass his X chromosome to his daughters and never his sons, all his daughters will inherit the condition (see the punnet square in attached image).

N.B: None of the sons will inherit the condition since the mother will pass normal X-chromosomes (x) to her sons.
