Biology

Answer:

Used as the primary source of energy in living organisms

Explanation:

Proteins are the main structural and functional molecules of the body. They make up hormones that are used in signaling, make up the structure of cells, immunoglobulins, carrier proteins, and etcetera. However, the main energy source of the cells is glucose (sourced from carbohydrates). Protein is metabolized as the last resort after glucose and fats. This is because protein breakdown has toxic nitrogenous byproducts (such as creatinine, ammonia, and urea) due to their amino group.

someone please help me with Part A and B on biology please i really need help will give brainliest ​read hard and rotate phone i
finlep [7]

<em>Hi there, I come in behalf of jcherry99,</em>

So, first question -

This shouldn't be that much of an issue, since we have the text to help us out, but I'll try breaking it up into more simpler words:

The placenta is incide the uterus, where the baby starts forming. As you might already know, babies do not eat while they're inside woman's bellies:

So how do they feed?

They feed throught the umbilical cord.

So why is the placenta there? Why would the baby want anything apart from food?

The placenta, instead of trading food with the baby, regulates temperature, supplies it with nutrients, exchanges gas with the mother (which the mother later exchanges with the environment) and gets rid of waste.

And, food is not everything for a baby that is in the urge of developing complex muscles, bones, etc.

Second "question" -

I do not actually know what I'm supposed to do, since there is no question. But I can tell you this - the information contained in part B is correct:

The amnioic sac provides babies with a liquid which allows him to move freely in the uterus, which is very helpful. But, note that he doesn't start moving randomly, he is always in a fetus or similar-to-fetus position.

Hope it helped,

What two things can alter the shape and function of an enzyme
mars1129 [50]

Temperature can cause an enzymes shape and function to alter due to the fact that once an enzyme reaches its optimum level, if it goes over it begins to denature. If the temperature is below optimum, then an enzyme will work at a slower rate.  Also, the pH can affect an enzyme.
