Insect hormones and their receptors are a focus in pest control and research. Hence, Option B is correct.

Some of the insect hormones such as ecdysone (molting hormone), JH (juvenile hormone) and their analogs can be used for biological  control of pests.

Option A: Hormone receptors are proteins that bind hormones and form hormone receptor complex to maintain cellular activities.

So Option A is incorrect.

Option B: Some of the peptide hormones used in pest control and research. So Option B is correct.

Option C: Peptide hormones interact with only cell surface whereas aminoacid derivatives and thyroid hormones directly interact with nucleus. so Option C is incorrect.

option D is incorrect.

How many of Earth's spheres does
Tpy6a [65]

The carbon cycle moves through virtually all of the earth's spheres.

<h3>Carbon cycle</h3>

There are 4 majors spheres of the earth:

  1. Atmosphere
  2. Geosphere or Lithosphere
  3. Biosphere
  4. Hydrosphere

The carbon cycle moves through the air (atmosphere), oceans (hydrosphere), organisms (biosphere), and the soil (geosphere).

Thus, the carbon cycle moves through all the spheres of the earth.

Flu vaccines need to be revised and changed every year because the flu virus constantly mutates. Flu viruses can change in two ways: drift or shift. Antigenic drift occurs when genes of the virus slowly change during replication until the immune system no longer recognizes it. On the other hand, antigenic shift occurs when a major change in the virus happens. This usually leads to a totally different kind of virus. This is what happened during the H1N1 scare in 2009.

DNA viruses like mumps are less prone to mutation due to the presence of DNA polymerase. RNA viruses are more prone to mutation because they undergo reverse transcription to simulate the role of DNA.

Hotspots are plumes of magma that originates deep below the ______. with respect to overlying plates, these plumes can remain __
rusak2 [61]

The hotspots are regions, where the plumes of magma are present just below the lithosphere. The plume of the magma is the particles of the volcano and the gases, which is erupted during the volcanic eruption. It is generated by the fragmentation of the magma. Once, it reaches the lithosphere, it get spreaded laterally.

The plumes at the hotspots are present just below the tectonic plates, a high temperature r heat and the low pressure causes the rocks present in the lithosphere to melt resulting in volcanic eruption. At hotspot, the melting of rock takes time, sometimes it is very slow, due to the presence of various tectonic plates. Hence, the plumes can remain stationary for a very long period of time without erupting.

So, the first blank can be filled with Lithosphere and the second blank can be filled with Stationary.
