Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

A. water

B. glucose

C. vitamins

D. amino acids

E. lipids

The correct answer is E.

Explanation:

Lipids are a heterogeneous group of organic compounds divided into fats or oils, phospholipids and cholesterol esters. The lymphatic vessels are responsible for the transport of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K), which are absorbed through the digestive tract, that is, they act as capturers of fats and excess fluids from the human body, always present in the blood vessels. They do not carry blood, but lymph, a clear liquid. They play an important role in the transport of fats, in the recovery of fluids that escape from the blood capillaries and in the fight against infections. In the small intestine, specialized lymphatic capillaries transport lipids from the diet to the lymphatic vessels and, ultimately, to the blood. The presence of these lipids makes the lymph drained through the small intestine appear creamy white.

Answer:

Explanation:

Australopithecina or Hominina is a subtribe in the tribe Hominini. The members of the subtribe are generally Australopithecus (cladistically including the genera Homo, Paranthropus,[2] and Kenyanthropus), and it typically includes the earlier Ardipithecus, Orrorin, Sahelanthropus, and Graecopithecus. All these related species are now sometimes collectively termed australopithecines or homininians.[3][4] They are the extinct, close relatives of humans and, with the extant genus Homo, comprise the human clade. Members of the human clade, i.e. the Hominini after the split from the chimpanzees, are now called Hominina[5] (see Hominidae; terms "hominids" and hominins).

While none of the groups normally directly assigned to this group survived, the australopithecines do not appear to be literally extinct (in the sense of having no living descendants) as the genera Kenyanthropus, Paranthropus and Homo probably emerged as sister of a late Australopithecus species such as A. africanus and/or A. sediba.

The terms australopithecine, et al., come from a former classification as members of a distinct subfamily, the Australopithecinae.[6] Members of Australopithecus are sometimes referred to as the "gracile australopithecines", while Paranthropus are called the "robust australopithecines".[7][8]

The australopithecines occurred in the Plio-Pleistocene era and were bipedal, and they were dentally similar to humans, but with a brain size not much larger than that of modern apes, with lesser encephalization than in the genus Homo.[9] Humans (genus Homo) may have descended from australopithecine ancestors and the genera Ardipithecus, Orrorin, Sahelanthropus, and Graecopithecus are the possible ancestors of the australopithecines.[8]
