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

Which condition is related to an increase in the size and number of fat cells in the body?
Anettt [7]
The correct answer should be <span>d. hypertrophic obesity</span>
However, a more correct answer would be a combination of C and D because the hypertrophic type is when obesity occurs due to an increase in the size while hyperplastic is when their number increases. Since it's only mentioned here as hyperplasia, only hypertrophic should be the answer.
