Answer:

increase

Explanation:

The mevalonate pathway is known to generate isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, which are used to synthesize diverse compounds including cholesterol and steroid hormones. The levels of mevalonate in human plasma may be used as a measure of cholesterol synthesis. When the cholesterol level is low, it stimulates its endogenous production by the mevalonate pathway. Since it is well known that the vegetarian diet reduces cholesterol, this diet also increases mevalonate levels.

an ant length is equals to 1 centimeter
now, let’s find the number of ants in total in order to fit end to end across the length of the picnic blanket.

1 centimeter is equals to 0.01 meters. And in 1 meter there is a total of 100 centimeter
=> 0.01m x 100 = 100cm
Therefore, it needs a total of 100 ants that measures 1cm each in order to fill the blanket that measures 1m from end to end.
