Options:

A prostaglandin

B protein hormone

C. peptide hormone

D. steroid hormone

Answer:

Amylin is peptidal harmone. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What is hormone?</h3>

Hormones are the chemical messengers of the body. They make their way through your bloodstream to tissues and organs. They have a long-term effect on a variety of processes, including growth and development.

Amylin is a peptide hormone produced in tandem with insulin by the pancreatic -cell and is hence lacking in diabetics. It works as a satiety agent by inhibiting glucagon secretion and delaying stomach emptying. As a result, amylin replacement could potentially improve glycemic control in some diabetics.

Amylin is a 37-amino-acid peptide hormone released by pancreatic beta-cells in response to a food stimulation together with insulin. It is inadequate in Type 1 diabetes patients and increased in Type 2 diabetes patients in the early stages, a disease marked by hyperinsulinemia.

How would damage to the left posterior column affect you?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Posterior column mediates a pathway called as posterior column medial lemniscus pathway in central nervous which is responsible for mediating certain sensations like touch, vibration etc. Damage to the left posterior column unable to transmit signals to the primary somatosensory cortex in the gyrus and parietal  lobe of the brain.

Explanation:

  • The spinal cord and cerebrum is connected by some specialized tract called as white matter tract. These tracts are either ascending or descending.
  • The another name of ascending pathway is known as medial lemniscus pathway.
  • The origin of this pathway takes place within posterior column of the spinal cord.
  • Posterior column medial lemniscus pathway is important as it transmit signals to the cerebrum which is responsible for generating impulse like vibration, touch etc.
  • Thus damage to this column can't be able to transmit signals to different parts of cerebrum and thus impulse like touch, vibration,pressure etc will not generate.
