D. A hormonal signaling pathway between endocrine glands and tissues

Explanation:

Our body is formed by a complex organization of various tissue, organs and organ-systems. It has specific mechanisms to regulate the functions of all its cell, tissue and organs. Besides neural system, the endocrine system also plays a crucial role in the regulation of body functions.

A molecule with the formula C18H36O2, would probably exhibit which of the following characteristics?
Mashcka [7]
The answer would be A—the molecular formula given is that of a long-chain, saturated fatty acid, which would be insoluble in water (i.e., hydrophobic).

—————————

B describes carbohydrates, which can function as a storage of energy (e.g., starch or glycogen) or structural components (e.g., cellulose). The three examples just given are polymers of glucose, a monosaccharide; monosaccharide generally have the empirical formula CH2O; this is not the empirical formula of the given molecule (and, in any case, there are too few oxygen atoms for the number of carbon atoms), and so B is incorrect.

C describes an amino acid, likely an α-amino acid, which consist of a central, saturated carbon bonded to amino (—NH2) and carboxyl (—C(=O)OH) functional groups and a variable side chain, which determines the amino acid’s properties. Since the formula of an amino acid must contain nitrogen, which the formula given doesn’t have, the molecule couldn’t be an amino acid, and so C is incorrect.

D describes nucleic acids. Examples include DNA and RNA; nucleic acids and the nucleotide monomers that comprise them contain a nitrogenous base and a phosphate group. The given molecule’s formula has neither nitrogen nor phosphorus, and so cannot represent an amino acid, making D incorrect.

Part B If different masses of water are heated to the same temperature, which sample will absorb more energy? Base your argument
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

This sample will absorb less energy because the more water, the harder it is to absorb all of the water. The other sample has less so the sand can absorb it more easily.

Explanation: Hope This Helps :)
