Answer: Preserve glucose dependent tissue.

Explanation: The body preserve the glucose dependent tissue because the brain uses glucose and ketone bodies as fuel for its working.

The glucose level in the body should not go below a certain level hence the body starts using fat derivatives.

In prolonged starvation the brain starts using the ketone bodies for its working but it can lead to ketonuria and ketone body excretion.

What are the similarities in the way a barchan forms and the way a hooked spit forms?
choli [55]

Answer:

The similarities in the way barchan and hooked spit forms are:

First, they are formed from sediment or sand movement.

Second, this movement makes them have a peculiar curved form that provides them their major characteristic.

Explanation:

First of all, barchans are sand formations that are created after the accumulation of sand in a place is moved by the wind and provides them a curved form. However, they exist only out of the sea.

Second, hooked spits are formations that happen after sea movement displaces the sediment to create a curved structure that can only exist in the sea. These formations affect the strength and direction of the waves in the sea due to their curved form.
