Which of the following statements best describes why most animal fats are formed from saturated fatty acids? A)The hydrocarbon chains of saturated fatty acids are straight so they can be tightly packed to store more energy in less space.
B)The hydrocarbon chains of saturated fat cannot pack together closely, which keeps the animal from becoming too large.
C)The hydrocarbon chains of saturated fatty acids allow fewer hydrogen atoms to bond, which makes the molecule stable for energy storage.
D)The hydrocarbon chains of saturated fatty acids have bends so they can be loosely packed to store more energy in less space.

The tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is facing extinction due to devil facial tumor disease (dftd) which causes bulging cancerous lumps and lesions to erupt around the face and neck — often causing enough deformation to make seeing or eating difficult. dftd has evolved into a contagious cancer, a trait that is unique among cancers. devil mating behavior involves biting around the head and neck, allowing cells from one individual — especially cells from the crumbly dftd tumors — to be transferred to the wounds or face of a new individual. this marsupial was once found across australia, but sea levels rose, isolating the tasmanian population, while the australian population went extinct. what would be an outcome of genetic isolation that is likely to have impacted the spread of dftd? a) reduced territory puts diseased individuals in greater contact with non-diseased ones. b) inbreeding results in less variation in facial features so the cancer is generally fatal. c) genetic isolation has made it difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine against dftd. d) the lack of genetic variation in the immune system of tasmanian devils minimizes resistance to the disease.
