Explanation:

Unlike saturated fatty acid with only single bonds and more hydrogen atoms,

Unsaturated fatty acids have one or more double bond(s) in their structure, hence they appear as non-linear shapes.

Examples of saturated fatty acid is palmitic acid, while unsaturated fatty acid is palmitoleic acid

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Euglena is a single celled organism. It belongs to Kingdom Protista. Euglena is a eukaryotic organism that exhibit characteristics of both plants and animals. Some species of Euglena are photoautotrophs like plants which means they have ability to trap sunlight to produce food by the process of photosynthesis. Whereas, some species are heterotrophs like animals which means they obtain food by feeding on other organisms.

If scientists remove all of the chloroplasts from a Euglena, it will not be able to perform photosynthesis because chloroplast is an organelle that contains light sensitive pigments named as chlorophyll. Chlorophyll traps light energy from sun. Sunlight energy, along with carbon dioxide and water produces food in the form of glucose in plants and other photoautotrophs.

Clara is a vegan and she does not drink milk, a food advertised as a best source of calcium. But she is not worried too much sin

marysya [2.9K]

Explanation:

%DV label= 27%

1 cup of cooked collared greens= aprx 266.60 mg of Calcium

Assuming Clara is...

a teen, her required adequate intake (RAI)= 1300 mg/ day
an adult, her RAI= 1000 mg/day

For teenaged Clara

∵27 % DV= 270mg

% daily Calcium= $\frac{270}{1300} * 100=$ = 20.8 ≈ 21%

=0.21

<u>21% of her daily calcium needs is in a cup of cooked collard greens.</u>

Calcium is an essential mineral required by the human body, it is involved in cell signalling, muscular function and homeostasis. Along with fats, fiber, vitamin A and C and iron, calcium makes up part of a recommended daily intake target or DV- these are integral to a balanced diet.
