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.

Does the volume increase with trial number, decrease with trial number, or stay about
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Hi. You have not informed the experiment that this question relates to, making it difficult to respond to your query. However, I looked up your query on the internet and found one similar to yours that included an experiment that measured the volume of balloons inflated by people's breath.

The <em>volume of the balloons remains constant throughout the number of tests</em>, according to the results of the experiment. This is due to the fact that when we blow, <em>our lungs prefer to express the same amount of air as when we breathe in</em> regular settings. This is most likely due to the fact that all of the balloons were filled with air when the participants were in the same physical and mental condition, i.e., calm and still, causing the volume of air they breathed and emitted to<em> remain constant</em>. If the individuals in the experiment were exerting some physical effort or were stressed and concerned, the amount of air would be different.
