Use you knowledge of lipids to explain why desert plants need the waxy coating on their leaves to survive?

Biology
2 answers:
Vera_Pavlovna [14]3 years ago
3 0

Fats and lipids are hydrophobic which makes them water repelling compounds. Therefore, presence of a waxy coating on the outer skin of the desert plant prevents loss of water via evaporation from the skin of the plants. This helps the plant store water and increases its survival period.

After strenuous exercise sore muscles can occur because of?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. A buildup of lactic acid in the tissues.

Sore muscles after vigorous exercise are the result of lactic acid accumulation in the muscles.

Vigorous exercise reduces the levels of oxygen available in the muscles due to which complete oxidation of the glucose could not take place.

Muscle cells switch to another process called as lactic acid fermentation to produce energy. In this process, lactate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate into lactate and reduces NADH to NAD⁺.

This NAD⁺ enables the continuation of glycolysis which results in the production of net 2 ATP.

In addition, influx of materials such as nutrients, WBC, anti-inflammatory compounds etc into the muscle cell (for repair) causes swelling of the muscle fibers which is also the reason for the muscle soreness.
