If glycogen stores are full and the body's immediate need for energy is met, what happens to the remaining glucose

Biology

The remaining glucose is converted to fat and stored into the body as an energy source.

Glucose is a sugar molecule which can be converted into two three-carbon pyruvate molecules through the process of glycolysis and then into acetyl CoA. So, when the body requires immediate energy, acetyl CoA enters the Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs cycle) and ATP is formed. But, when glucose intake exceeds your body's energy needs, acetyl CoA begins the process of fatty acid synthesis (FFA). FFAs become triglycerides that are stored in the fat tissues of the body which can be broken down later to give the energy the body needs.

It would be best to grow more than one tomato plant in each soil to truly represent the tomato's growth in them. To average the number of tomatoes yielded by each soil sample would also allow a sample that is more representative of the tomato plants than merely comparing single tomato plants.

What does competition mean and how might you see competition in an ecosystem?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Ecological competition occurs when living organisms, including animals, plants, bacteria and fungi, need the same limited resources to thrive in their shared environment. An ecosystem could collapse if several species needed the same scarce resources to complete their life cycle. Competition will occur between organisms in an ecosystem when their niches overlap, they both try to use the same resource and the resource is in short supply. Animals compete for food, water and space to live. Plants compete for light, water, minerals and root space.
