Answer:

Scientific names are essential in naming organisms. If you named a new species "Fluffy", no one would really know how to identify it. With scientific naming, scientists can use the components of the name to know what it is.

Which of the following is false? Question 1 choices Choice A., The actions of both the beta and alpha cells in the pancreas are
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Choice C., High blood glucose levels can result from an overproduction of insulin

Explanation:

Blood sugar levels are regulated by two pancreatic hormones—insulin and glucagon. When blood sugar levels increase, insulin is released (beta cells of the pancreas), it binds to its receptors and consequently increase  glucose uptake by cells, which effectively lowers blood glucose levels. On the other hand, when blood sugar levels decrease, glucagon is released (alpha cells of the pancreas), it binds to its cell receptors, and causes glucose to be released into circulation, thereby increasing blood glucose levels.

The sides of the DNA ladder are made up of a phosphate and:
lesya [120]

Answer:

A sugar called deoxyribose.

Explanation:

DNA is made up of molecules called "nucleotides". These are:

  • A phosphate group
  • A pentose sugar [deoxyribose]
  • A nitrogen-containing base [adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine]

Thus the first option is the right answer.


Reasons why the other options are wrong:

"A plasma called haemoglobin" is wrong as plasma and haemoglobin are related to the blood.

"A chemical called nucleic acid" is wrong as it is not what DNA's made up of. DNA and RNA are nucleic acids themselves.

"An acid called chlorophyll" is wrong as chlorophyll is related to plants.
