Her hypothalamus will secrete vasopressin. If her dehydration becomes severe, her secretion of vasopressin will increase.

<h3>What is vasopressin?</h3>
  • The posterior pituitary gland releases the peptide hormone vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone.
  • Which is produced by the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus (neurohypophysis).
  • It primarily functions as an anti-diuretic in the kidney, where it causes the body to reabsorb water by acting on the distal region of the nephron when it is dehydrated.
  • The AVP gene for it is found on human chromosome 20.
  • Vasopressin has an antidiuretic effect; it reduces the volume of urine by raising the collecting tube's water permeability.
  • It attaches to the G protein-coupled V2 receptor, which in turn starts a signaling cascade through the PKA.
  • Aquaporin 2 (a transmembrane pore) is produced as a result, and it is then transported to the apical/urinary membrane.

<h3>How the bacterial growth curve relates to what happens to the bacterial population?</h3>

The bacterial growth curve symbolizes the number of live cells in a bacterial population over a period of time. There are four different phases of the growth curve: lag, exponential (log), stationary, and death. The initial phase is the lag phase where bacteria are metabolically functional but not dividing.

<h3>What are 4 states of bacterial growth?</h3>

Bacteria can live in more burning and colder temperatures than humans, but they do best in a warm, moist, protein-rich atmosphere that is pH neutral or slightly acidic. There are exceptions, however. Some bacteria flourish in extreme heat or cold, while others can stay under highly acidic or extremely salty conditions.

Considering the Mendelian traits tall (D) versus dwarf (d) and violet (W) versus white (w), consider the crosses below and deter
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

DDWw x Ddww

DdWw x DDww

DDWw x DDww

Explanation:

D for tallness

d for dwarfness

W for violet

w for  white

For Parental Plants that has

tall, violet x tall, white

 The representation will be

DDWW × DDww      (We the apply the mendelian crossing)

This will yield offsprings with the following trait

DDDD × DwDw

DDDD × DwDw

DWDW x WwWw

DdWw x ddww

Ddww x ddWw

DdWw x DdWw

DDWw x ddww

From the above Offsprings

1/2 tall, white and 1/2 tall, violets offspring are

DDWw x Ddww

DdWw x DDww

DDWw x DDww

Explain why the cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia.
kakasveta [241]
The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.
