So the breakdown of lipids actually starts in the mouth. Your saliva has this little enzyme called lingual lipase, which breaks down these fats into something called diglycerides. These diglycyerides then make there way to the intestines, where they stimulate the pancreas to release lipase (another fat breaking enzyme!) and the pancreas to release bile. The bile and pancreatic juices both work together to break these diglycerides into fatty acids. It’s helpful to know some of the root words. Glycerol- the framework to which the fatty acids stick. Glyceride- think of this guy as several fatty acids stuck to a glycerol. Lipids- think fats, and their derivatives (our glyceride friends.) tri/di/mono- these are just number prefixes! Lipids are one glycerol molecule, and then either one, two, or three fatty acids attached, which is where you get mono(1)/di(2)/tri(3)glyceride from. I know this was long, but hopefully it helps!
The correct option is D.
Wind has some advantages which makes it suitable as a source of energy but it also possesses some disadvantages which reduces its potentials as a viable source of energy. For instance, large expanse of land will be needed to construct wind farms and this may not be feasible especially in populated areas. Another disadvantage is that electricity production will be depended on the availability of wind, when there is no wind, there will be no electricity.
Answer:
a, b, d, and f.
Explanation:
<em>The periwinkle snails feed on plants. Consequently, they are said to herbivorous and heterotrophic since they cannot manufacture their own foods. They are also referred to as primary consumers because they directly feed on plants without any other nutritional option. They, therefore, occupy the second trophic level on a typical food web. </em>
The correct options are a, b, d, and f.
The human gene for insulin production is identified and removed using enzymes called restriction enzymes. The same restriction enzymes are used to cut open a plasmid (a small, circular section of DNA).
