Answer:

The correct answer is: A) stored as fat.

Explanation:

A diet high in proteins is recommended for muscle hypertrophy but it should always be accompanied by training, otherwise the excess proteins are metabolized into amino acids that will be stored as fat. Stored fat can later be used to meet energy needs in the absence of glucose.

The recommended protein intake for muscle gain is 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.

Answer:

Stored as fat

Explanation:

The body requires a variety of macro nutrients for building blocks to fortify the body and keep it functioning. One of the important building blocks are amino acids that are derived from proteins. These are broken down in the stomach by protein digestion enzymes by amylase, proteases and hydrochloric acid.

In the even that the body has taken in too many units of protein this will be stored in the liver as glycogen. This is a form of "animal carbohydrate" or "animal sugar."

The glycogen stores will remain there for a reservoir for energy whenever the body requires it. In the event of overeating the body will store the glycogen in a more concentrated form, fat via the fatty acid synthesis pathway.

This is absolutely false.
There is a wide diversity of life teaming around hydrothermal vents. These communities include primary producer organisms, but instead of obtaining energy from the sun, these bacteria use a process called chemosynthesis to convert minerals and other chemicals in the water into energy. These bacteria support a wide range of other animal species, including giant tube worms, deep sea mussels, serpulid or “feather duster” worms, and vent crabs, the apex predator of the vent community.

1 is C - see first attachment. Genotypes with Y's represent males, and big R represents red eyes, while little r represents white eyes. For example XRxr is a heterozygous (red-eyed) female, and XrYr is a homozygous white-eyed male.

2 is B because the absence of functional proteins and some ribosomes due to the mRNA strand is not as detrimental as the loss of the entire cell.

3 is B. (The insertion of 3 base pairs into a genetic sequence is the length of a single codon, meaning that only one amino acid in the entire polypeptide was added)
