Biology
1 answer:
Zina [86]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Monkeys have a prehensile tail that allows them to grab and hold onto tree branches - structural

Moose make mating calls to locate potential mates - behavioral

Whales are covered in a thick layer of blubber, insulating their bodies in cold ocean waters - structural

Humans have five toes on each foot to help them maintain balance - structural

Many birds migrate south for the winter in search of food - behavioral

Explanation:

The structural adaptations are adaptations that help the organisms to survive in their environment through development of physical traits that give them an advantage. Such adaptations are the thick layer of blubber of the whales, the five toes of the humans, prehensile tail of the monkeys, rotational toe of the clouded leopard, long of the giraffe etc. The behavioral adaptations are adaptations that help the organisms to survive in their environment, but they manifested through their actions, not their physical traits. Such adaptations are the mating calls of the moos, the migration of the birds in winter, the hibernation of the bears etc.

How is protein used by the body? Select all the possible metabolic fates of protein from the options below.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1. Synthesis and repair of muscle tissue

2. Production of ATP

3. Synthesis of glucose

Explanation:

Proteins are primarily used for tissue repairs and synthesis. They are polymers of amino acids used to make hormones, enzymes and other chemicals of the body. Therefore proteins are only reserved for synthesis and repairs of tissues.

During extreme starvation periods when then is no source of carbohydrates and adipose tissues has been depleted/used up, proteins are alternatively used as source of energy in form of amino acids that enters the liver. Tissues such as muscles are protein degraded to provide the brain with energy in form of ketone bodies and glucose, thus the weight loss in people suffering from malnutrition.
