Answer:

The human body needs a certain amount of fat to function. This is because fats in the body not only store important nutrients, but since they cannot produce their own, they act as messengers helping proteins do their jobs. Additionally, fats help insulate a person's body to protect them from drastic temperature changes.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the relation between frequency, wavelength energy and velocity of a wave t
Sedbober [7]

The statement that correctly describes the relation in the question is ; ( A ) As wavelength decreases, frequency increases, energy increases and the speed remains the same.

The Frequency of a wave travelling in a medium is directly proportional to the energy produced by the wave and inversely proportional to the wavelength of the wave.  

Changes in the wavelength and frequency of a wave has no effect on the wave speed. but has an effect on the energy produced by the wave. therefore the wave speed remains constant regardless of the changes in wavelength and frequency

Hence we can conclude that   As wavelength decreases, frequency increases, energy increases and the speed remains the same.
