Answer: Lipids.

Explanation:

The large carbon -hydrogen bonds(C-H) in chains of lipids makes them ideal storage of energy.

T<u>he more C-H bonds breakage, the higher protons availability from Citric acid cycle NADH and FADH2  and hydrogen atom splitting (to protons and electrons) for  the electron transport chains (ETC</u>), and therefore the higher proton pumps for  more ATP's synthesis in the mitochondria matrix.  

In addition large number of electrons  surrounding carbon atom in fatty acids than other food molecule is added factor.  The transfer of these electrons to oxygen during oxidation of fatty acids releases large amount of energy (9 kilo calorie) into the cells,  more than other food substances

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

Male ; EeHh

Female ; EeHh

Then,

possible gametes for each = EH / Eh / eH / eh

where,

                            EH                    Eh                   eH                    eh

EH                      EEHH               EEHh              EeHH               EeHh

                     <em>   One eye            One eye         One eye          One eye</em>

<em>                         One horn          One horn        One horn        One horn</em>

<em />

Eh                      EEHh                 EEhh               EeHh                Eehh

                       <em>One eye              </em><em>One eye</em><em>         One eye          </em><em>One eye</em><em> </em>

                        <em>One horn            </em><em>Two horn</em><em>       One horn         </em><em>Two horn</em>

eH                     EeHH                  EeHh              eeHH                eeHh

                        <em>One eye             One eye         </em><u><em>Two eye</em></u><em>          </em><u><em>Two eye </em></u>

                        <em>One horn            One horn        </em><u><em>One horn</em></u><em>        </em><u><em>One horn</em></u><em> </em>

eh                     EeHh                   Eehh                eeHh                eehh

                      <em>One eye              </em><em> One eye    </em><em>      </em><u><em>Two eye</em></u><em>          </em><u><em> Two eye </em></u>

<em>                       One horn              </em><em>Two horn </em><em>       </em><u><em>One horn</em></u><em>         </em><u><em>Two horn </em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Therefore,

One eye, one horn:One eye, two horn:<u>Two eye, one horn</u>:Two eye,two horn

is,

9 : 3 : <em><u>3 </u></em>: 1

This ration proves that the above working is correct and is dihybrid cross.
