heart has 2 enough oxygen and glucose -as the triglyceride is
-in snake the oxygenated and for respiration and so die saturated
deoxygenated blood mix -so the lipoprotein is an LDL

they do not mix in a human -they bind to receptors on

Some flying insects store
trehalose and glycogen in
their wing muscles.
Trehalose is broken down to
glucose by the enzyme
trehalase.
