The correct answer is protein.

Proteins are macromolecules composed of amino acids with the wide range of structures. Protein functions are diverse:  

• structural proteins-maintaining the cell shape, (for example, proteins are structural elements in connective tissues like cartilage and bone in vertebrates),  

• Enzymes - catalyze the biochemical reactions in cells-.

•  Monitors- changing their activity in response to metabolic signals

• Part of the extracellular matrix or involved in intercellular communication…

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

d. Monosomy X is the only viable monosomy known to occur in humans.

Explanation:

Human have 22 pair of homologous chromosomoses and an extra pair of sex chromosomes. While in males  the sex  chromosomes  are X and  Y , females have two chromosomes X . Anyway, in normal conditions the total number of chromosomomes that humans have in their cells is 46 (23 pair of chromosomes).  

Aneuploidy is a biological condition where an individual have an abnormal number of chromosomes in their cells.  In humans for examples, this would be a human having more or less than 46 chromosomes.

The Turner syndrome also called  monosomy X is an aneuploidy  where  one of the X chromosomes is missing in a female.  Although under constant supervision, people with Turner syndrome have viable healthy lives. However this is the only monosomy that occur in humans that is compatible with life.

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis  decreases.

The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles  to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .

Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose  move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO

What are the two major factors determining the distribution of terrestrial biomes? what are the two major factors determining th
Allushta [10]

<u>Temperature, humidity and elevation </u>are the two major factors determining the distribution of terrestrial biomes.

  • A region of land with a similar climate and comparable plant and animal communities is referred to as a terrestrial biome. Different terrestrial biomes are typically described in terms of the trees, shrubs, and grasses that inhabit them.
  • The Terrestrial biome type is influenced by variables including latitude, humidity, and elevation:
  • A Terrestrial biome's latitude indicates how far it is from the equator. You will find the Arctic, boreal, temperate, subtropical, and tropical biomes as you move from the poles to the equator
  • The amount of water in the air is known as humidity. Humid air is defined as having a high concentration of water vapor.
  • The biomes will be referred to as semi-humid, semi-arid, or arid as we move away from the most humid environment (the driest).
  • Elevation refers to the elevation of land above sea level. It becomes chilly.
