Answer:Lipids perform three primary biological functions within the body: they serve as structural components of cell membranes, function as energy storehouses, and function as important signaling molecules. The three main types of lipids are triacylglycerols (also called triglycerides), phospholipids, and sterols.

triglycerides- fat

phospholipids- plant and animal cell membrane

sterols- plant and animal cell membrane's microorganism.

What is the purpose of an organelle?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

<em>Organelles are specialized structures that perform various jobs inside cells. The term literally means “little organs.” In the same way organs, such as the heart, liver, stomach, and kidneys, serve specific functions to keep an organism alive, </em><em>organelles serve specific functions to keep a cell alive.</em>

Agricultural lands frequently require nutrient augmentation because
fenix001 [56]

The given is incomplete as the options are missing. The correct options for the given question are as follows-

(A) cultivation of agricultural land inhibits the decomposition of organic matter

(B) nitrogen-fixing bacteria are not as plentiful in agricultural soils because of the use of pesticides

(C) land that is available for agriculture tends to be nutrient-poor

(D) the nutrients that become the biomass of plants are not cycled back to the soil on lands where they are harvested

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

In order to carry out agricultural practices, the soil must be rich in essential nutrients for the growth of crops. The soil fertility is a key role in the production of crops.

This agricultural land often requires a large amount of these nutrients and minerals because some of the nutrient minerals are converted into plant biomass which is then used up to produce energy in other sectors. So, the nutrients that were present in the soil are taken away and not transferred back into the soil. This means that the nutrient cycle gets affected. Due to this reason, there requires a constant supply of nutrients into the agricultural fields.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Theodor W. Engelmann illuminated a filament of algae with light that passed through a prism, thus exposing different segments of
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The correct answer is C and Engelmann conducted this experiment to prove relationship between algae and the rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation: First we must talk about 3 facts:

1) Prism scatters the white light into different wavelengths.

2) Photosynthesis, 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water molecules are consumed and 6 oxygen and 1 sugar molecule is synthesized using light energy.

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

3) Aerobic bacteria breaks down sugar while using oxygen and produces water and carbon dioxide in simplified terms.

So with this experimental setup a researcher can understand the rate of the photosynthesis by increased accumulation of aerobic bacteria near algae  in certain wavelengths since they uses oxygen and tend to move close to the oxygen source (<u>see figure</u>). In this experiment there are no ways to measure heat (B), there is no known relation between wavelength of light and aerobic respiration since it can happen even in the dark (A) and finally there are no ways to measure carbon dioxide (D).
