finlep [7]

B. Storage body fat helps increase the effects of aging.

Explanation:

Fats are organic compounds that are insoluble in water and tend to solidify at room temperature.

Fats are essentially produced in animal body.

These are one of three macro-nutrients required in the body.

Adipose tissue which are also known as padding tissue function as a store house of fat.

They serve as cushion and protect the internal organs from shock or injury.

Fats are storehouse of energy and provide much more energy than the carbohydrates could.

They insulate the body and prevent the loss of heat in cold weathers.

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Entropy is characterized as a level of irregularity or disorder in a system. More the disorder more is the Entropy. The greatest entropy is accomplished when the system is in equilibrium.  

In a similar manner, stability is legitimately relative to entropy. Therefore, more entropy, more is the stability and the other way around.

A               Glucose                    Less                   Less
