Look at the word equation below. fatty acids → triglyceride water which describes the chemical reaction taking place? a. hydrolysis of fatty acids b. dehydration of triglycerides c. hydrolysis of triglycerides d. dehydration of fatty acids

The answer is D. The degradation process is also called the condensation process. It is referred to as so because it involves the expunging of a water molecule as a product during the joining of a glycerol molecule and  3 fatty acid molecule to form a triglyceride. The opposite reaction, called a hydrolysis reaction, involves the breaking of the triglyceride bonds into fatty acids and glycerol. A water molecule is consumed in this process.

the element that provides strength to the exoskeletons of clams and oysters is phosphorus.

this is so because calcium carbonate is the main component in the shells. calcium carbonate is strengthened by phosphorus.

explanation:

b. climate change will cause an increase in biodiversity of all ecosystems.
