Answer:

⇒ In the Liver

⇒ Ketone bodies are produced by the liver and used peripherally as an energy source when glucose is not readily available. The two main ketone bodies are acetoacetate (AcAc) and 3-beta-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), while acetone is the third, and least abundant, ketone body.

⇒ Ketones and ketoacids are alternative fuels for the body that are made when glucose is in short supply. They are made in the liver from the breakdown of fats. Ketones are formed when there is not enough sugar or glucose to supply the body's fuel needs. This occurs overnight, and during dieting or fasting.

spayn [35]

Answer:

yes. i agree. early puberty leads to early stress, depression and early sexual behavior.

Explanation:

For young people who begin puberty earlier than their peers, the transformation appears to be particularly fraught, especially for girls. Early-maturing girls are at increased risk of a range of psycho social problems including depression and early sexual behavior.The average age of a girl's first period in the United States and Europe was about 16 a century ago. Today, it's closer to 13.In boys, puberty begins between ages 9 and 14, on average, starting with growth of the sexual organs and wrapping up with facial hair and a deepened voice.

Karen Rudolph, PhD, at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, and colleagues, followed more than 160 boys and girls for three years. They found that girls who matured earlier than their peers had increased rates of depression that persisted over the course of the study. They also found that while early-maturing boys initially had lower levels of depression than later-maturing boys, over time they showed signs of increased anxiety, negative self-image and interpersonal stress. By the end of the three-year study period, the boys' rates of depression were almost as high as those of the early-maturing girls (Development and Psychopathology, 2014).
