The answer is D.  Most desert animals are nocturnal.  The exception here in the desert where I live is lizards and birds.  They're all over the place during the day.  But if you go out into the desert at night you can find rattlesnakes, rabbits, foxes, scorpions, kangaroo rats, and all sorts of critters.

Comment on why do you think cells prefer to use carbohydrates as a source of energy before they use fats and proteins.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

This can be explained  based on structure, and on metabolisms of  carbohydrate.

Explanation:

Carbohydrate has a relatively simple structural composition than the  either protein or fatty acids. The C, H and Oxygen molecules are of  relatively fewer in number and few  chains than fats and protein.Thus  cells will spend less energy to break bonds(catabolisims) among these molecules during cellular respiration  pathways  to trap the energy.

In addition glucose the end products of carbohydrate did not need any processing before it enters glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle and oxidative phosphorylation pathways to generate energy for the cells.

Conversely, for protein to be used it has to be first deaminated(removal of amino acid) by the liver  before it enters glycolysis,while fats needs to  be broken down and undergo beta oxidation   with the long chains removed  before it can  form acetyl CoA. Therefore cells will prefer few steps, less endergonic  pathways of glucose than longer more endergonic amino acids  and fatty acid pathways.

Furthermore, glucose can be used in cellular respiration to  produce energy either aerobically or anaerobically, while fats can only be used anaerobically. Therefore, since cells usually prefer to thrive in aerobic conditions they  breakdown glucose easily during this period, and when lack of oxygen occurs they switched to anaerobic, Thus, the versatility of glucose to oxygen concentration makes glucose a better choice. Besides if fats was used anaerobically, ketone bodies build up which may be toxic to the cells.

the fluid mosaic model defines the plasma membrane as a structure composed of multiple components, including phospholipid bilaye
Eva8 [605]

Answer: True

Explanation: The plasma membrane is a membrane the protects the cell and its environment. It regulates what goes inside and what comes out of the cell. .

Plasma membrane as a structure composed of multiple components, including phospholipid bilayer, carbohydrates, and other lipids. The phospholipids possess one head and two tails. The head is basically polar and hydrophilic (water-loving) while the tails are non-polar and hydrophobic (water-fearing).

The plasma membrane is decorated with proteins. Some protiens are extrinsic proteins that run halfway through the membrane, while others are called integral proteins that go entirely through the membrane. The function of these proteins is to serve as channels to allow the molecules to enter and leave the cell.

Is the vagus nerve the heart rate centre of the brain?
koban [17]

Answer:

The vagus nerve has two bunches of sensory nerve cell bodies, and it connects the brain stem to the body. It allows the brain to monitor and receive information about several of the body’s different functions.

Explanation:

The vagus nerve is the longest and most complex of the 12 pairs of cranial nerves that emanate from the brain. It transmits information to or from the surface of the brain to tissues and organs elsewhere in the body.

There are multiple nervous system functions provided by the vagus nerve and its related parts. The vagus nerve functions contribute to the autonomic nervous system, which consists of the parasympathetic and sympathetic parts

The vagus nerve has a number of different functions. The four key functions of the vagus nerve are:

-Sensory: From the throat, heart, lungs, and abdomen.

-Special sensory: Provides taste sensation behind the tongue.

-Motor: Provides movement functions for the muscles in the neck responsible for swallowing and speech.

-Parasympathetic: Responsible for the digestive tract, respiration, and heart rate functioning.
