2. A hormone that is produced by the endocrine system targets specific
cells ir many different parts of the body. Which of the following
mechanisms explains the best way for the hormone to efficiently reach all
of its target cells?

The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the
body to the target cells with specific receptors

The hormone reacts with neurons close by that signal the target cells throughout the
body

The hormone is transported by local regulation to cells close by that trigger the target
cells

The hormones moves throughout all the cells until it reaches the cells with the
specific receptors for the signal

Hurry please I’m taking a exam

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is the first option:-

The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the  body to the target cells with specific receptors.

I learnt in biology that hormones are transported through blood so they reach the specific receptors and act upon them so am sure this is the answer!.

The other options aren't right for the question.

What do you mean by cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration is the process by which biological fuels are oxidized in the presence of an inorganic electron acceptor such as oxygen to produce large amounts of energy, to drive the bulk production of ATP.

Cellular respiration is a series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce ATP, which may be used as energy to power many reactions throughout the body. There are three main steps of cellular respiration: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation.

Answer:

b. spores of two types to spores of one type

Explanation:

Spores of two types to spores of one type is not the trend to plant evolution because first the spores of one type is present in living organisms but with the passage of time evolution occurs that will leads to formation of  spores of two types happen in living organisms. There are types of spores present in plants such as microspores, which produces male gametophytes, and megaspores, which produce female gametophytes while on the other hand, spores of one type is present in plants having asexual reproduction.

A pyramid of biomass shows the mass of all of the organisms in each trophic level of an ecosystem. Look at the biomass pyramid to the right. Based on the data shown, how many kilograms of plant matter would be needed to support the other trophic levels in this ecosystem?

Answers

Answer:

90,000

Explanation:

A pyramid of biomass shows the mass of all of the organisms in each trophic level of an ecosystem. From the biomass pyramid to the upright ladder, the kilograms of plant matter needed to support the other tropic levels in this ecosystem is 9000 kg.

In ecology, the biomass pyramid is a graphical representation designed to show the quantity of biological or organic matter observed in an organism.

The ecological biomass pyramid starts with the primary producer which is usually a green plant.

Followed by the herbivores(animals that feed) on the green plants. They are the primary consumers. The carnivores are secondary consumers that feed on herbivores. Then the peak of the pyramid is the tertiary consumers which are called omnivores. (i.e animals that feed on plants & animals).

The amount of mass consumed by the primary consumer is equivalent to the total amount of mass in the primary consumer. However, as we go up the pyramid, the mass depreciates.

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount of kilograms of plant matter needed to support the other tropic levels in this ecosystem is 9000 kg.

Answers

This kind of genetic engineering can be pursued, but with caution. Making an animal more resistant to common infections can reduce the need to administer antibiotics, which often ends up in the milk and meat, and can also save money for the farmer. It can result in healthier farm animals that produce more milk and meat. However, in some cases genetic engineering can produce sicklier and weaker offspring than wild type, sometimes as an unforeseen effect of the phenotype, but sometimes as an effect of a weaker DNA molecule that breaks easier. Some consequences of this include reduced fertility and offspring viability. For society, it could be seen as a benefit if it ups the production of milk and meat because it could drive down the cost, since more goods are being produced per farm animal than before. In terms of the environment, it might be beneficial because the antibiotics that would have otherwise been passed through the animal and ended up in animal waste, where it could effect the local ecosystem in a negative way, do not end up doing that since the animal itself is no longer in need of large doses of antibiotics.

A 66-year-old man has difficulty controlling voluntary movements. He can clearly state what he intends to do, describe how he would do it, and initiate or stop the movement. However, he has poor coordination and often misses his target. If his difficulty arises from a defect in one particular area of the central nervous system, which area is most likely to be involved

Answers

Answer:

Cerebrum

Explanation:

Cerebrum is the part of central nervous system that is responsible for the voluntary movement. If there is poor coordination between cerebrum and the muscles so the person has difficulty in controlling his voluntary actions or movement. Somatic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system responsible for the voluntary movements of body parts through the use of skeletal muscles so we can say that both cerebrum and somatic nervous system is responsible for voluntary actions.

Explanation:

American Chestnut trees can indeed regrow from their roots but due to the devastating effect of the chestnut blight, they have been unable to do this since the blight spread across the country.

The blight was introduced when Chinese chestnut trees were imported into the U.S. in the 20th century. It killed off most of the chestnut trees in the U.S. and attacks the tree again when it grows to around 6 meters bringing it down to its roots. This is why the American Chestnut is considered endangered.

where they execute important functions. The polypeptide chain of these proteins must cross the lipid bilayer. This presents a problem because the peptide bond is polar in nature. It turns out that in virtually all cases where an amino acid chain crosses a lipid bilayer it does so as an alpha helix. Suggest a reason why this is the case. (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

In this case, it is likely that the polypeptide chain assumed an alpha helix configuration because the lipid bilayer did not have beta-barrel proteins.

Explanation:

A polypeptide chain is naturally polar, however, a lipid bilayer is naturally non-polar. This makes it difficult and even prevents the polypeptide chain from crossing a lipid bilayer, since the composition of these two elements does not allow them to mix. In that case, the polypeptide chain has two options to take to successfully cross the lipid bilayer.

The first option that the polypeptide chain has is to allow the creation of twisted beta sheets in the shape of a closed barrel in its structure. This only works if the lipid bilayer has beta barrel proteins in its composition to act as a transport channel for the polypeptide chain. However, few lipid layers have this protein.

Most likely, the polypeptide chain assumes an alpha helix conformation to cross lipid bilayers that do not have beta-barrel proteins. By assuming the beta conformation, the polypeptide chain reinforces the hydrogen bonds present in its composition, allowing it to cross the lipid bilayer without having its conformation and structure disassembled.

6. Does the insect have a small body with large fan –shaped wings?

a. Yes…………………………………………………………………………… Order Lepidoptera

b. No………………………………………………………………………………Order Hymenoptera

Answer:  

ORDER ODONATA

Explanation:

It is simple to read a dichotomous key. You only need to understand the technical terminology and to detailed observe your specimen. The key will lead you to the answer.

1. Does the insect have wings?

a. Yes………………………………………………………………………… go to step 2

b. No…………………………………………………………………………. Order Hemiptera

We only need to answer this question by looking at the image. In our example, yes, the insect has wings. So we need to go to question number two. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would not have wings, it would belong to the Hemiptera order.

2. Does the insect have parallel wings? (hint: Parallel wings don’t stick out to the side)

a. Yes……………………………………………………………………………… go to step 3

b. No………………………………………………………………………………. go to step 4

Ok, here it tells you that parallel wings do not stick out to the side. But in our example, wings do stick out, so the answer should be NO. This species does not have parallel wings. As it is a NO, we go to question number 4.

Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would have parallel wings, we should read number 3.

4. Does the insect have 4 total wings?

a. Yes………………………………………………………………………………… go to step 5

b. No………………………………………………………………………………… Order Diptera

This one is easy. How many wings our specimen has? Four. Then it is a YES, and we go to question number 5. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would not have 4 wings, it would belong to the Diptera group.

5. Does the insect have long antennae?

a. Yes………………………………………………………………………………go to step 6

b. No……………………………………………………………………………… Order Odonata

Our insect has very short antennae. They are not long at all. So, the answer is NO, the insect does not have long antennae. This answer leads us directly to the order of our individual. ORDER ODONATA. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would have long antennae, we should read question number 6. And so on until we would reach the order.  

ORDER ODONATA:

Dragonflies belong to this group. These insects characterize as having big eyes, and the separation between them depends on the species. They have an elongated abdomen, sometimes even longer than the wings. Their bodies must be robust to support the massive musculature that propels the wings during flight. The wings are long, big, and wide.

Usually, the males are much more colored than the females are.

The atomic size level, which interacts with atoms as well as small molecules, is much lower than the ultramicroscopic range.

2) Herpesvirus, DNA --- ultramicroscopic.

Ultramicroscopic particles are very tiny structures that cannot be seen using a conventional optical microscope, necessitating the use of an electron microscope. Viruses and DNA falls into this group since they are much smaller than tiny species like bacteria.

3) Protozoan, Rickettsia - microscopic.

Microscopic species are much smaller than macroscopic organisms because they cannot be observed by the naked human eye and must be viewed through a microscope. The size range for microscopic particles is [tex]( 10^3 \ \ to \ \ 10^{10})[/tex], which contains protozoans and Rickettsia (a gram-negative, non-motile bacteria genus).

4) Roundworm and algae --- macroscopic

Naked eyes can see macroscopic organisms; for example, several types of circular worms and algae can be seen by them.
