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.

Hence, in case of starvation the body preserves the glucose-dependent tissues and shifts on other energy sources.

List the two elements of Darwin’s theory of evolution. What are some objections to these concepts?

The two main points from Darwin's theory of evolution is that 1) most, if not all living organisms evolved from  one or just a few common ancestors and that subsequent specialization of further generations then led to new species. Furthermore, he said that 2) the process how this was done was by natural selection where the organisms which were most adapted to their environment were successfully 'remembered in the gene pool'.
