It's no longer the dead-end of the carbon cycle. Since the industrial revolution, this material has been taken out of the ground (by Oil and Gas companies) which is for the most part subsequently burned - of which the final by-product is CO2. This fossil material also goes into making plastics and other chemicals - so the "dead-end of the carbon cycle" is not quite so straight forward anymore.

Which of the following is not a function of protein?
masha68 [24]

Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly.
