The mitochondria converts food into energy
Out of the following given choices;
<span>A. </span>cause their nest-guarding activity to drop
<span>B. </span>change male characteristics to female characteristics
<span>C. </span>disrupt the estrogen receptors
<span>D. </span>cause the males to become even more aggressive
The answer is A. The males would begin to search for the females for mating and hence reduce their guard of the nests. This would result in easy access of the nests to enemies and predators of fish eggs and fingerlings.
Answer:
Blood clothing is an example of positive feedback.
This type of feedback mechanism is useful to the body because it multiplies the factor that intervenes in clotting accelerating the process.
If a toxin affects the molecules that signal for platelets the feedback will not be effective enough to produce clotting and the body will keep bleeding.
Explanation:
Blood clotting is an example of positive feedback due to the fact that when the vascular endothelium is damaged platelets will go to this area and activate themselves once they are in contact with the collagen fibers of the damaged structure. When the platelets are activated they will release the contents that is stored in their granules. One of the contents is a Gq-linked protein receptor cascade, that will increase the concentration of calcium in the platelets. Calcium activates protein kinase C, which, in turn, activates phospholipase A2 (PLA2). PLA2 will modifies an integrin membrane increasing its affinity to bind fibrinogen. The activated platelets change their shape , and the fibrinogen cross-links with the integrin membrane aiding in the aggregation of adjacent platelets. After this the coagulation cascade takes place. there are two pathways the extrinsic and the extrinsic one.
The extrinsic pathway will be activated due to tissular factor released by the platelets and the intrinsic pathway will be activated due to endothelial collagen. The final product of both pathways is factor x.
Factor x will transform prothrombin into thrombin will activate the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin. Thrombin will form a net of fibrin that will the clot.
A cascade reaction is useful because every component of the cascade are related making a quick reaction once that one of then is activated and can activate other or more factors.
If a toxin affects the molecules that signals for platelets, platelets will not go to the damaged area and in consequence there will not be thrombin and fibrin to form the clot together with platelets.
Answer:
Solid
Explanation:
A radio device is a solid type of matter.
- Matter is anything that has weight and occupies a space
- There are three main categories of matter which are solid, liquid and gas
- A solid state of matter is made up of substances with a definite volume and a fixed shape.
- A radio has a fixed shape. Most of the come in a solid cuboidal or cube shape
- The volume of this three dimensional body can be measured which connotes the space it occupies at any given time.
- The mass of the radio can be taken using a balance.
