Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Excessive carbohydrate intake results in the synthesis of lipids in mammals. Discuss this statement using specific examples from your text books.What is the difference between starch and cellulose that makes one digestible and the other not digestible to humans? Explain and illustrate.Why are fish living in cold waters particularly likely to have stores of unsaturated fats in their bodies, rather than saturated fats?
