Answer;

An educated guess that can be consistently testable

Explanation;

-A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed, preferably using a written, pre-defined, protocol of observations and experiments.

-A theory is the result of testing a hypothesis and developing an explanation that is assumed to be true about something. A theory is always backed by evidence; a hypothesis is only a suggested possible outcome, and is testable and falsifiable.

Answer:

Organisms use various strategies and adaptations to regulate body temperature and metabolism. The organisms control the exchange of heat by various ways which include physiological, behavioural means  and by insulation.

The factors which play most important role in the heat exchange  regulation between environment and organism are as follows:

  • effective temperature difference  between organism and environment
  • Exposed surface area
  • Evaporatory and circulatory changes

<u>Insulation</u> :Another most common method used for heat exchange.Animals who have furs,feathers and fat layers which play significant role in insulation. They are very much important because they reduce heat exchange amount between environment and organism. The most common example is of Cats. They used to curl up their bodies when they want to sleep in cold environment, they tuck their bodies in their paws and legs, and they wasp their tails around their bodies. When organism uses the food and oxygen the body temperature begins to increase, this method is known as metabolic heat production.

Which of the following biomolecules is best represented by this formula?
Alona [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "lipid".

Explanation:

Lipids, known also as fats or oils, are organic compounds that are insoluble in water and are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The formula of this question shows a biomolecule that is made up of this three atoms, and even though carbohydrate are made up of this three atoms as well, we can determine that it belongs to a lipid because it contains many more hydrogen atoms than oxygen atoms. Other characteristic of lipids is their long chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms, which are represented by the lines shown in blue. I attached the missing formula.
