glucose levels go up in the bloodstream after a meal. beta cells of the pancreas detect the elevated glucose levels. this causes

them to secrete insulin protein into the bloodstream. how is this secretion accomplished?

The secretion of insulin into the bloodstream is done through exocytosis and absorption through the capillary arteries.

Insulin is a protein required to process sugar. This is a <u>naturally produced protein</u> for which the pancreas is responsible. The insulin Protein is considered a transport protein. It is responsible for carrying glucose from the bloodstream into cells to be used as energy.

This protein is of vital importance. The secretion of this protein is done through exocytosis, which means that after passing through the ribosomes and the Golgi, it is contained within a membrane, which will then fuse into the plasmatic membrane and be released from the cell. It is then absorbed through the capillaries to enter the bloodstream.

What property of a virus makes it useful for making transgenic organisms?
morpeh [17]

Viruses reproduce by incorporating their DNA into an organism's genome to tap into the host replication mechanism to reproduce themselves. Viruses, therefore, cannot copy outside their host. This property of viruses makes them suitable for the production of transgenic organisms. This is achieved by replacing the DNA piece that causes virulence in the virus with the desired gene that is to be transduced into the host organisms.

The important organ of the high level of plants
Leno4ka [110]
Roots and leaves
The major driving force of water uptake in a large tree is transpiration.Transpiration is the process  by which plants absorb water through the roots and release it as water vapor through the pores in their leaves. Once this water evaporates, a negative water vapor pressure is created or develops in the surrounding cells of the leaf.   when this happens, water is pulled into the leaf from the vascular system, the xylem, to replace the water that has been transpired from the leaf.This pulling of water, or tension, that occurs in the leaf, will extend through the rest of the xylem column of the tree right into the xylem of the roots as result of the cohesive force holding the water molecules  along the sides of the xylem tubing.The xylem is a continuous water column extending from the roots to the leaves.<span>Finally, the negative water pressure that occurs even to the  roots will result in an increase of water uptake from the soil.</span>
