What does fats do for the body?
Fat is important in our bodies because It provides us with warmth. It acts like an insulator trapping heat in our bodies. Fat also supplies us with the most off our energy.
Why do walrus have layers of fats or blubber around their body?
Walrus live in very cold water with ice. The blubber acts as a store of energy and also fat is a good insulator and traps heat inside the Walrus' body. This keeps them warm. Note, many marine mammals (whales, seals etc.) also use blubber in this way.
How do you make up transformer oil level?
The oil is primarily there to carry heat away from the windings but also acts as an insulator.
Which layer of the skin protects the deeper tissues of the body and acts as a heat insulator?
Fat. also known as adipose tissue, is the connective tissue found in the subcutaneous layer that provides insulation.
Is aluminum foil a conductor or insulator?
Insulator or conductor depending on the circumstances. Aluminum foil conducts heat, but it cuts off air flow and reduces evaporation of fluids. Aluminum foil reflects and thus minimizes radiation transmission. With foods it is more useful as an insulator. It also acts as an insulator on windows. But, aluminum is definitely a good heat conductor.
In which place an inductor store energy in it?
Because inductor forms a coil with magnetic field around it. It acts as a relay also. Tasleem
Where do maple trees store energy?
Maple trees store their energy in the roots. They also gain energy from the sun, just like other trees do.
Where does ATP store energy?
ATP also known as Energy is stored in the Mitochondria.
Is a t shirt a conductor or insulator?
A dry T-shirt and most other clothing has air between the threads and acts as an insulator for cold (and electricity). When wet it loses its insulating properties and conducts heat so it no longer keeps body heat inside the clothing. Since perspiration also has salt secreted through the skin, it is also can act as an electrical conductor.
What kind of energy batteries store?
Chemical energy. Batteries also convert chemical energy to electrical energy.
What stored energy in plants?
Batteries and plants store cell energy. Humans also store cell energy until it is needed. If there was no way to save energy all cells would be used up and the body, battery or plant would be dead.
How do thermos work?
A thermos works with principle of Physics that vacuum is a pure insulator of heat. Thermos is made of two containers separated by a vacuum space which acts as an insulator of heat. Also the surface of thermos will be glassy which in turn helps in reduction of heat loss.
