Answer:

The most correct answer would be "all individuals exposed to cold temperatures".

Explanation:

Body fat can be divided into white fat and brown fat.  

White fat cells (adipocytes) have a <u>single lipid droplet</u> and this fat is a result of an excess of calories. White fat, when storage around abdominal area, increases cardiovascular risk. Therefore, an <em>obese person has a great proportion of this type of fat. </em>

On the other hand, brown fat has <u>many lipid droplets</u> and <u>mitochondria full of iron</u>, which give its brown color. Brown fat is useful to generate heat, it does so by burning calories. This type of fat can usually be found in adults in the back of the neck and above the collarbone and its amount <em>decreases with age.  </em>

How do organisms within the population share and compete for things they need to survive?
frutty [35]
Organisms compete for the resources they need to survive- air, water, food, and space. In areas where these are sufficient, organisms live in comfortable co-existence, and in areas where resources are abundant, the ecosystem boasts high species richness.
