Fatty acids are building blocks of lipids. The correct option is A.

Fats and oil are known as lipids.

Lipids are part of the classes of food which are made up of high proportion of carbon and hydrogen with very little oxygen.

Fats are solids and oils are liquids at room temperature. They serve the following functions to the body:

  • They provide the body with energy
  • They are solvents for fat-soluble vitamins and hormones.

Before lipids can be absorbed into the body, they must be broken down into fatty acids and glycerol.

Therefore, fatty acids are building blocks of lipids.

Liula [17]
Your answer is (B.)
Fossils in newer layers if rock are generally estimated to be younger than fossils found in the deeper layers because it is closest to the surface. The soil and earth didn't have enough time to "bury" the remains of the dead animal ( Bury is used for a simpler term) underground. The farther down a fossil is the more likely it is older unless the animal tends to burrow. Seeing as the question is probably talking of older animals that is unlikely for an animal to burrow that far. So your answer is B.

According to the theory of endosymbiosis How did cells acquirenhow did cells acquire chloroplast
stira [4]

According to endosymbiotic theory, the chloroplast evolved as a result of engulfment and assimilation of a Cyanobacteria by an eukaryotic cell.

Explanation:

  • Endosymbiotic theory supports the view that ceratain organelles of the eukaryotic cell evolved as a result of engulfment of single celled organism.
  • Evidences  that support this theory is the presence of organellar DNA.
  • It is assumed that Mitochondria evolved as a result of engulfment and assimilation of an aerobic prokaryote while Chloroplast evolved due to engulfment and assimilation of a photosythetic prokaryote by an Eukaryote.
  • After the engulfment ,these organisms however escaped the phagocytosis and began to benefit the eukaryotic Host.
  • Soon it lost many of its Genes to the eukaryotic nucleus and became dependent on the Host.
  • Thus a symbiotic association was established between the prokaryote and the host.Giving rise to cell organelles.
