What else can I help you with?
Is lipid in plant or animal?
Plants and animals do not store lipids the same way. Plants store them in the cell wall, which animal cells do not have. Plant lipids are oils, while animal lipids are more concentrated fat.
What is the difference between the metabolism of plants and animals?
Plants conduct photosynthesis to produce energy, while animals consume organic matter for energy. Plants store energy as starch, while animals store energy as glycogen or fat. Plants have cell walls made of cellulose, while animals do not.
Carbohydrates and lipids are used to store energy in living organisms?
Yes, both types of macromolecules are used for energy storage. The most important distinction is that carbohydrates are used for short-term storage while lipids are used for long-term storage in animals. Carbs are usually the sole storage in plants.
What molecule do plants use to store energy?
Both plants and animals store chemical energy in a nucleotide called ATP (Adenosine-TriPhosphate). This nucleotide acts as a coenzyme for different processes in cells when it releases energy by turning into ADP (adenosine Diphosphate).
Your sister has been told she has a hereditary heart condition to do with lipids?
Lipids 'come' in two types: from plants, they are called oils and are Good; from animals, they are called fats that, while necessary for normal bodily functions, can be considered Good only in smaller quantities.
Plant organelles that store starches or lipids or that contain lipids?
Ah, what a delightful question! Organelles that store starches are called amyloplasts, while those that store lipids are known as oleosomes or lipid droplets. These organelles play important roles in storing energy for the plant and helping maintain its structure and function. Just like how we all have different roles to play in this beautiful world, each organelle has its own special job to do within the plant cell.
Compare and contrast the roles of plants and animals in the flow of energy in the living world?
Generally, in the ecosystem plants function as primary producers of biological energy in the form of sugars, starches, lipids and proteins (autotrophs), while animals are the heterotrophic consumers of this production. Therefore, energy generally flows from plants to animals.
Different of animals and plants?
Plants cannot move while animals can. Plants cannot reproduce on their own while animals can. Plants require an agent of pollination to reproduce indirectly. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
Describe how animals and plants are codependent?
Animals and plants are codependent upon on another for several reasons. Namely, animals depend on plants for nourishment while plants depend on animals for fertilizer.
What do plants and animals store excess carbos as?
unused carbohydrates in an animal are stored as fat and as starch in a plant.
What are both plants and animals made of?
Plants are made of cells that contain a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole, while animals are made of cells that do not have a cell wall, but contain a nucleus, mitochondria, and various organelles. Both plants and animals are made of organic compounds such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids.
What organic compounds that store sugar?
Organic compounds are carbs, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acid. Glucose is a carb and is the most important simple sugar in our metabolism. One organic compound that holds sugar is a carb.
