Answer:

\rB. nutrients that are essential cannot be made by the body, so they must be obtained from food.

Explanation:

If we look at the definition of essential fatty acids, it clearly states that these are fats which human body cannot prepare but are essential for proper functioning of body. Since body cannot synthesize them on their own, therefore we must obtain them through a diet rich in them. Two main essential fatty acids are:

Alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3)
linoleic acid (omega-6)

They play essential functions in body sucg as :

Production of hormones

Better adrenal and thyroid activity

Regulation of inflammatory and immune responses, function and development of brain.

Supporting the development of healthy skin and hair.

Option B is the best option.

Hope it helps!

Thank you

A meteorologist observes a decrease in barometric pressure and predicts a chance of light to moderate precipitation. Which front

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Warm front

Explanation:

A warm front is the transition zone of the replacement of a cold air mass by a warm air mass. The pressure centers of warm fronts are usually low and the pressure read by a barometer will decrease due to an incoming warm front

The general direction of motion of warm fronts is from southwest to northeast with warmer and moist air behind the warm front than air into which the front flows. Therefore, warm fronts normally results in moderate precipitation or rainfall or snow.
