Biology
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]3 years ago
5 0

They are not something that you prevent from being made in your body. They are automatically made when you eat food that is not automatically converted into calories. This is used for energy later on for you body.

But too much of triglycerides is bad for you. This condition is called hypertriglyceridemia. Your doctor can detect if you have this condition by simply running a lipid panel (a blood test) that measures your overall cholesterol, you LDL and HDL cholesterol, and also measuring your triglycerides.

If you do take this test, they will make you fast for about 8 hours. They make you do this because triglycerides are usually lowest after you fast but goes up really high after a big meal (like a Thanksgiving Dinner!).

(Extra: your triglycerides are measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and if your levels are:

BELOW 150 -----------------Healthy

150-199 -----------------------Borderline

200-499 ---------------------High

500+ --------------------------Very High


Most people are under 200, so in the end, you don't have to worry about your triglyceride levels.

identify the types of questions that interest behavior geneticists, and describe the elements of heredity: chromosome, dna, gene
baherus [9]

The interaction between genetics and environment and how this affects behavior, resulting in individual variances, is of particular interest to behavior geneticists.

The environment in this context refers to every external, nongenetic component of our life, including prenatal nutrition and the people and objects in our immediate surroundings.

Chromosomes:

Each of our cells contains 46 chromosomes, 23 from our mother and 23 from our father. Chromosomes are complicated, spiraling molecules formed of DNA that resemble threads and contain genes.

DNA:

We have over 30,000 genes, which are DNA segments that, when activated (expressed), serve as templates for the synthesis of different protein molecules, which serve as the foundation for our physical and behavioral growth.

Genome:

The entire collection of instructions for creating an organism, included in all of its chromosomal genetic material, is called an organism's genome.

Gene:

Combinations of mutations at certain gene locations serve to distinguish us from one another. The majority of human features are not controlled by a single gene acting alone, but rather by a number of genes working together.
