Answer:

884 grams of glycogen

Explanation:

Jordan's body weight = 130 pounds

Rate of storage of glycogen per pound of bodyweight = 6.8 grams

Total grams of glycogen that Jordan can store at maximum capacity:

  <em>bodyweight x rate of storage</em>

      = 130  x 6.8 grams

           = 884 grams

<em>Hence, Jordan is storing </em><em>884 grams </em><em>of glycogen in her body.</em>

Winding mills are made on hills. Why?​
Leni [432]

Answer:

Winding mills are made on hills because of air flow and currents.

Explanation:

Winding mills capture wind to turn blades and produce energy. In order to do so, it needs winds! Strong winds, in order to turn the blades. You will notice that if you ever scale a mountain or go higher, it starts to become windier/the wind blows harder.

If the wind mills are placed higher, it can capture these windier conditions, thus moving the wind blades to produce energy. The higher the hill, the stronger the wind current, the more energy it produces.
