Which of the following is not a general characteristic of the fat-soluble vitamins?
a. excesses are eliminated from the kidneys.
b. absorption is via the lymphatic circulation.
c. several of them require protein carriers for transport.
d. they can be stored in relatively large amounts in certain body tissues

a. Excesses are eliminated from the kidneys.

Explanation:

A fat-soluble vitamin can be dissolved in fats and oils. They are absorbed along with fats in the diet from the intestinal lumen using the same mechanisms used for absorption of lipids. Upon absorption, these vitamins enter the lymph vessels before making they go into the bloodstream. In most cases, fat-soluble vitamins must be coupled with a protein in order to be transported through the organism. This means they are solubilized and transported by carrier proteins to exert their actions.

By last, since fat-soluble vitamins can not be dissolved in water, they are not readily excreted. So they can accumulate in fatty tissues to toxic levels if taken in excess.

ans.

gregor john mendel is known for study of inheritance in pea plants. he used garden pea plant for his study, having alternative traits for various characters. he performed cross-breeding in pea plants to check how characters are transmitted between parents to offspring, such as cross between pure tall and pure dwarf plant. mendel studied the inheritance patterns in pea plants for various generations.

thus, the correct answer includes options and f).

correct answer: understand the different control methods available

integrated pest management is an strategy that is based on the ecosystem and try to prevent the pest and the damage caused by them by applying combination of technique like habitat manipulation, biological control and use of resistant varieties.

the main aim of the integrated pest management is not to completely eliminate the pest but to strengthen the ecosystem so that conditions are favorable for plants and unfavorable for pests.
