Answer:

  • Andrew is consuming extra 200 kilocalories every day. These calories are not required by the body so it will store them for further use.
  • Most of the extra carbohydrate will enter glycogenesis pathway to form glycogen which will be stored in liver and skeletal muscles.
  • Remaining carbohydrate and fat will enter the lipogenesis pathway will get converted into triglycerides which will be stored as fat in adipose tissue.
  • Excess storage of calories can make Andrew overweight in future.

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

B. It's much harder to provide the right atmospheric environment to cultivate obligate anaerobes, so it's been harder to study them.

Explanation:

Obligate anaerobic bacteria are the ones that can grow only in the absence of oxygen. These bacteria do not derive the energy from aerobic cellular respiration and die when exposed to the presence of oxygen.

Owing to their oxygen sensitivity, the culturing of obligate anaerobic bacteria requires special equipment to ensure the absence of oxygen.

The presence of aerobic conditions in laboratories makes their culture and study harder than that of the aerobic or facultative anaerobic bacteria.
