Question

1. provide an example of how fats help living organisms survive:

Explanation:

Fats act as an energy - storage molecule. In animals like hibernating bears, they store large amounts of fat before hibernation. During hibernation, when food is scarce, the body breaks down these stored fats to release energy, allowing the bear to survive the long period of inactivity without eating.

Answer:

In hibernating bears, stored fats are broken down during hibernation to provide energy when food is unavailable, helping them survive.
