Q: What is the medical term for a condition caused by abnormalities, such as mutations, in your genes or chromosomes? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Mutations , changes in the DNA or RNA sequence, can have significant phenotypic effects or they can have no effects. What are possible outcomes of some of those mutations. Some can produce genetic disorder . A genetic disorder is a condition caused by abnormalities, such as mutations, in your genes or chromosomes. Genetic disorders are usually present from conception. These disorders include chromosomal abnormalities, in which the individual has too few or too many chromosomes or chromosomes with large alterations, or diseases due to a mutation in a specific gene. These defective genes are usually inherited from the parents, hence the term hereditary disease or genetic disorder. Genetic disorders can be inherited in a dominant or recessive manner ( Figure below and Figure below ). Recessive disorders require the inheritance of a defective gene from each parent. The parents are usually unaffected and are healthy carriers of the defective gene. Choices: - mutations disorder - nervous disorder - radiation disorder - genetic disorder A:
genetic disorder

Q: As per hutton's unconformity, what happened to the intermediate layers of rock? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Look at the rock layers pictured below ( Figure below ); they show a feature called Hutton's unconformity. The unconformity was discovered by James Hutton in the 1700s. Hutton saw that the lower rock layers are very old. The upper layers are much younger. There are no layers in between the ancient and recent layers. Hutton thought that the intermediate rock layers eroded away before the more recent rock layers were deposited. Choices: - they metamorphized - they fused - they expanded - they eroded away A:
they eroded away

Q: Q: Which is the process through which leaves collect sunlight and make food? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Leaves are the keys not only to plant life but to virtually all life on land. The primary role of leaves is to collect sunlight and make food by photosynthesis. Leaves vary in size, shape, and how they are arranged on stems. You can see examples of different types of leaves in Figure below . Choices: - Greenhouse - compress - richness - photosynthesis A:
A: photosynthesis

Question: Q: What do you call a condensation reaction in which an ester is formed from an alcohol and a carboxylic acid? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: An esterification is a condensation reaction in which an ester is formed from an alcohol and a carboxylic acid. Esterification is a subcategory of condensation reactions because a water molecule is produced in the reaction. The reaction is catalyzed by a strong acid, usually sulfuric acid. When the carboxylic acid butanoic acid is heated with an excess of methanol and a few drops of sulfuric acid, the ester methyl butanoate is produced. Methyl butanoate has the scent of pineapples. The reaction is shown below with both molecular and structural formulas. Choices: - transesterification - esterisation - decarboxylation - esterification A:
Answer: esterification

Q: For what purpose does liver use the excess carbohydrate? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Obesity With obesity at high rates in the United States, there is a public health focus on reducing obesity and associated health risks, which include diabetes, colon and breast cancer, and cardiovascular disease. How does the food consumed contribute to obesity? Fatty foods are calorie-dense, meaning that they have more calories per unit mass than carbohydrates or proteins. One gram of carbohydrates has four calories, one gram of protein has four calories, and one gram of fat has nine calories. Animals tend to seek lipid-rich food for their higher energy content. Greater amounts of food energy taken in than the body's requirements will result in storage of the excess in fat deposits. Excess carbohydrate is used by the liver to synthesize glycogen. When glycogen stores are full, additional glucose is converted into fatty acids. These fatty acids are stored in adipose tissue cellsthe fat cells in the mammalian body whose primary role is to store fat for later use. The rate of obesity among children is rapidly rising in the United States. To combat childhood obesity and ensure that children get a healthy start in life, in 2010 First Lady Michelle Obama launched the Let's Move! campaign. The goal of this campaign is to educate parents and caregivers on providing healthy nutrition and encouraging active lifestyles in future generations. This program aims to involve the entire community, including parents, teachers, and healthcare providers to ensure that children have access to healthy foodsmore fruits, vegetables, and whole grainsand consume fewer calories from processed foods. Another goal is to ensure that children get physical activity. With the increase in television viewing and stationary pursuits such as video games, sedentary lifestyles have become the norm.

**Answer**
to synthesize glycogen
