Insulation and long-term energy storage

The function of FATS is insulation and long-term energy storage. Excess glucose in the body is converted to fats and then stored in certain location like liver, around the heart, and under the skin. The fats are converted back to glucose during starvation. Fats are deposited under the skin to provide insulation against heat loss.

Explanation:

Proteins are the mains structural molecules in the body. They are coded for by the DNA in cells that instruct how these proteins should be manufactured. Proteins make up the muscle tissues, most enzymes, antibodies, hormones, hair, nails, and etcetera. Protein is broken down for energy as a last resort during total starvation (when fat deposits have been exhausted) and when this happens it leads to body wastage. Glucose is the main energy source of cells.

explain the concept of linkage. if you performed a test cross with a fruit fly that is heterozygous for two genes how could you
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - the ratio of phenotypes in an organism cross will tell if the genes are linked or not.

Explanation:

In this question, we perform a test cross with a fruit fly that is heterozygous If we perform a test cross between two parents with identical heterozygous genomes AaBb.

If there is no recombination found in the offspring of this cross it means there are no linkage of genes present.  And if there are new or recombinant phenotypes present it means that there are genes linked together.

Generally, evapotranspiration depends on two factors. These are:
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: A. Water must be available for plants to transpire and the air cannot be saturated with humidity.

Explanation:

Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation is the loss of water from the earth surface or ground water table and transpiration is lost of water from plant surfaces. Plant absorps water from the soil through the root and it is transport by xylem to various body cells.

When the humidity is high and the air is saturated with water the rate of evapotranspiration is low but at a low humidity the rate of evaporation is high until the air is saturated.

Temperature also have a major role in transpiration. When the temperature is high the plant stomata is open which favours water Loss from plant but when the temperature is low plant closes their stomata in response to temperature change.
