Answer:
Overview
Adipose tissue, or body fat, is loose connective tissue composed mostly of adipocytes. In addition to adipocytes, adipose tissue contains the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of cells including preadipocytes, fibroblasts, vascular endothelial cells and a variety of immune cells (i.e., adipose tissue macrophages) [1] (Figure 1). Adipose tissue is derived from preadipocytes. Its main role is to store energy in the form of lipids, although it also cushions and insulates the body. Far from hormonally inert, adipose tissue has, in recent years, been recognized as a major endocrine organ [2], as it produces hormones such as leptin, estrogen, resistin, and the cytokine TNFα. Moreover, adipose tissue can affect other organ systems of the body and may lead to disease. The two types of adipose tissue are white adipose tissue (WAT), which stores energy, and brown adipose tissue (BAT), which generates body heat.
iXCells offers a wide collection of primary cells isolated from human and rodent adipose tissues, including Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF), Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs), Preadipocytes (PAds). These cells are are fully validated by marker staining, flow cytometric analysis and differentiation. They are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast, and fungi.
Answer:
A. Converting energy stored in sugar to ATP
Explanation:
Mitochondria are main sites of aerobic respiration. They are miniature biomolecular factories where food stuffs or respiratory substrates are completely oxidised to carbon dioxide and water. The energy liberated in the process is stored in the form of ATP.
Because of formation of ATP mitochondria are called <em>power</em><em> </em><em>hou</em><em>se</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>th</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>cell</em>.

Typical cervical vertebrae have several features distinct from those typical of thoracic or lumbar vertebrae. The most notable distinction is the presence of one foramen, in each transverse process. These transverse foramina encircle the vertebral arteries and veins.
Answer:
Complementation.
Explanation:
Genetics can be defined as the scientific study of hereditary in living organisms such as humans, animals and plants.
A trait refers to the specific features or characteristics possessed by a living organism. It is essentially transferred from the parent of a living organism to her offspring and as such distinguishes him or her. Some examples of traits in genetics are colorblindness, handedness, curly hair, height, complexion, weight, hair color, dimples, tongue-roll, etc.
Artificial selection is also known as selective breeding and it is a process that involves humans (breeders) selecting the animal or plant with desirable traits in order to reproduce favorable offspring having phenotypic traits.
Complementation can be defined as a relationship between two strains of a living organism both having distinct homo-zygous recessive mutations and results in the expression of a wild-type phenotype when crossed or mated.
In this scenario, there are two different varieties of a snapdragon flower having golden leaves rather than green leaves. Thus, crossing two different varieties of golden snapdragons would produce offsprings that have green leaves.
Hence, the above breeding is an example of complementation.
