Answer:
They are stored as carbohydrate or fat
Explanation:
The amine group in the amino acids that constitute the excess protein are removed and converted into urea or uric acid in a process known as deamination.
The remaining portion of the amino acids which is essentially carbon and hydrogen is converted into carbohydrate or fat and later oxidized to generate energy for the body.
Answer:
Deforestation negatively impacts the <u>carbon cycle</u> as <u>trees</u> play an important role in <u>balancing the amount of carbon in the atmosphere</u>.
Explanation:
Deforestation is one of the most damaging activities to the environment due to different reasons but mainly because it releases important amounts of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere due to the logging and burning of forests and also leads to the reduction of fauna populations because of habitat destruction.
In this case, cutting white and red pines and then setting a pine acreage on fire disrupts the carbon cycle because:
a) [As stated above] <u>Trees play an important role in balancing the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere</u><u> as there is less photosynthesis carried out by plants - important part of the carbon cycle.</u>
b) <u>When </u><u>trees (wood) are burned, the carbon that was formerly stored is released into the atmosphere as CO2,</u> leading to another disruption in the carbon cycle.
The most common way to determine gender in a turtle is to look at the length of its tail. Female turtles have short and skinny tails while males sport long, thick tails, with their vent (cloaca) positioned closer to the end of the tail when compared to a female.
