The best answer is D.
Carbohydrates get rapidly digested and are quickly converted to glucose . Once glucose levels in the blood rise, insulin that is produced by the pancreas begins to remove excess glucose from the blood and stimulates the liver to turn it into a type of starch called glycogen, which is stored in the liver and muscles.
However the body can only store a limited amount of glycogen so the excess glucose is stored as body fat (adipose tissue). This is the process of putting on weight.
Answer:
The energy input required for making organic compounds equals the usable energy output of respiration.
Explanation:
A reaction is endergonic (energy-consuming) process if the change in free energy is positive.
A positive change in free energy implies that energy is required to enter into the system. Let us recall that free energy is a state function. Hence, change free energy =free energy of products - free energy of reactants.
If free energy of products > free energy of reactants then the reaction is an endergonic (energy-consuming) process..
But The energy input required for making organic compounds equals the usable energy output of respiration, hence making the process spontaneous.
The second and fourth answer. :)
Answer:
The correct option is C.
Explanation:
Evolution refers to the gradual development of living organisms from earlier forms to the forms that exist today. One of the principal factors that lead to evolution is the ability of an organism to adapt to adverse changes in its environment. Organisms that are able to survive adverse changes in their environments usually go on to produce offspring that possess their parents' ability to survive. A good example of this is given in option C, where individuals with denser fur were able to survive from severe cold and then give birth to young ones that inherit their parents' ability to survive severe cold.
