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.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

A dolphin breathes through a single blowhole on the top surface of its head. The blowhole is covered by a muscular flap, which provides a watertight seal.

A dolphin holds its breath while below water.

The dolphin opens its blowhole and begins to exhale just before reaching the surface of the water. To open the blowhole, the dolphin contracts the muscular flap.

11. The acetyl CoA undergoes a series of changes and ATP, FADH2, NADH, and carbon dioxide are released.

4. NADH and FADH2 lose their electrons and get converted back into NAD+ and FAD.

15. Oxygen takes electrons and water is produced. 34 ATP molecules are released.
