Which of the following is not a function of fat in the human body?
A
Insulation and protection
B
Hormone production
C
Energy storage
D
Transport of oxygen in the blood
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the primary functions of fat in the human body: Fat serves as a major energy storage, provides insulation and protection to organs, and is involved in hormone production.
Recognize that fats are not involved in the transport of oxygen in the blood. This function is primarily carried out by hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells.
Compare each option with the known functions of fat: Insulation and protection, hormone production, and energy storage are all functions of fat.
Identify the option that does not align with the functions of fat: Transport of oxygen in the blood is not a function of fat.
Conclude that the correct answer is the option that does not match the known functions of fat, which is 'Transport of oxygen in the blood.'
