Homeostasis is the condition the body is in when all substances or variables in the body are at an ideal state. If necessary, fe

edback mechanisms kick in to maintain homeostasis by producing hormones. The pancreas is a gland that produces the hormones insulin and glucagon. How do the hormones of the pancreas maintain homeostasis?

Together the insulin and glucagon help maintain a state is known as homeostasis in which conditions inside the body remain steady.

<h3>What is homeostasis?</h3>

Homeostasis refers to the mechanism of the body to maintain a stable internal environment instead of changes taking place in the external environment.

When blood sugar is too high, the pancreas secretes more insulin. When blood sugar levels drop, the pancreas releases glucagon to raise them.

There is as much energy used to add a phosphate group by means of phosphorolysis, as the energy required adding a phosphate usin
xxTIMURxx [149]

The correct answer is (B) False.

There is not as much energy used to add a phosphate group by means of phosphorolysis, as the energy required adding a phosphate using ATP.

What is Phosphorolysis?

  • Glycogen phosphorolysis is a process that occurs at the start of glycogen breakdown. As a result, glucose can be produced from glycogen.
  • Glycogen phosphorolylsis catalyzes glycogen phosphorolytic cleavage, resulting in glycogen-1-phosphate.
  • However, when cleaving glucose from glycogen, a non-reducing terminal is eliminated.
  • Furthermore, phosphoglucomutase can convert glucose-1-phosphate generated from glycogen into G6P, allowing it to go directly to glycolysis.
  • It should be noted that going straight to glycolysis eliminates the need for ATP to convert glucose to G6P.
  • If the glucose created by glycolysis is consumed, three ATPs are produced.
  • Phosphorolysis requires less energy than ATP to add a phosphate group.

Autopsy conducted on an individual who had died of pneumonia revealed bluish-green pus filling the lung. The causative agent of
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The agent causing the pneumonia, where bluish-green pus was found, is most likely Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Explanation:

Pseudomona aeuriginosa is a gram-negative bacteria that is one of the main causes of hospital-acquired infections, including pneumonias in mechanically ventilated patients.

One of the characteristics of P. aeuriginosa is the formation of a bluish-green pus, since it has the capacity to form cyanide-based blue pigment upon contact with the organic tissues it infects. This is the reason why previously P. aeruginosa was called a pyocyanic bacillus.

<em>     The other options are not correct because the only bacterium that produces blue-green pus is P. aeruginosa.</em>

¿Cual de las siguientes especies se reproduce por fecundación interna ?
Alexxandr [17]

Which of the following species reproduces by internal fertilization?

a) cats

(b) Toads

(c) The fish

(d) alternative b and c

Answer:

(a) Los gatos

Explanation:

Only cats are capable of internal fertilization from the given choices above.

Internal fertilization is the fusion of gametes within an organism. This process occurs during sexual reproduction within the female.

  • Toads and fishes exhibit external fertilization.
  • External fertilization occurs where the male sperm externally fertilizes the eggs of the female.
  • This usually takes place in a moist or wet place especially water bodies. The liquid medium will transport the sperm to the egg.

In cats, the female specie takes in reproductive cells from the male during coitus and it fertilizes the her eggs to produce a zygote.
