Answer:

Polar bears are found in very cold parts of the world where temperatures can drop as low as -20° Fahrenheit (-29° Celsius). Without proper protection, this weather can be deadly, so polar bears stay warm by utilizing their thick fur and fat, or blubber. Polar bears have evolved along with other Arctic animals to take advantage of minimal warmth, and can sometimes actually become too warm because their bodies are so efficient at trapping heat.

As for walrus', they cannot put on a coat to stay warm, but they can use layers -- layers of blubber! A walrus's hide is about one inch thick. Tucked underneath this tough skin is a layer of blubber. This layer of fat is from three to six inches thick. Just like our layers of clothes, a walrus's layer of blubber helps it stay warm.

Explanation:

Hope this helps! :)

3. What is the difference between saponifiable and nonsaponifiable lipids?
lara [203]

Answer:

the difference is that unsaponifiable lipids do not contain fatty acids at least not as a component of the fundamental structure whereas saponifiable lipids do have fatty acids.

Explanation:

As a further explanation unsaponifiable lipids are lipids that do not contain fatty acids as components of the fundamental structure. On the other hand, complex also known as saponifiable lipids do contain fatty acids, and those fatty acids can be released in a process called saponification which is caused by alkaline hydrolysis.

A jogger in July produces large amounts of sweat. Due to this the kidneys change the rate of urine production. Why is this impor
ivolga24 [154]
When it's hot or when the organism starts sweating a lot, this causes an amount of water to be lost from the body. Water is important for the organism to survive and it's absence wi lead to death, therefore Osmoreceptors cells in the hypothalamus in the brain, sends signals to increase the rate of water re-absorption by the kidney. This causes the urine to be of a low volume and more concentrated. This allows enough water to be used by the body as a lot has been lost during sweating.
