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.

Answer:
The correct answer is -
a. has a grossly enlarged face and hands compared to torso and limbs
c. is distorted because of the disproportionate representation of certain body parts relative to others in the somatosensory cortex
Explanation:
" Homunculus" is a graphical representation of a small but fully grown man which the foetus is believed to develop whereas somatosensory homunculus is a neurological representation of the brain of humans that shows the motor and sensory functions of the body.
It has a large number of sensory nerves from the hand that take a large part of the brain. The face also has many nerve endings and are represented by large areas of the homunculus. A distorted look comes from this uneven representation of different body parts in the homunculus.
Tumor-suppresor genes inhibit cell division in the cell-cycle to repair DNA that is damaged or abnormal chromosomes to stop the mutation of such genes which causes pathology in the body.
