The correct answer is option a. responding to the environment.

The sweating is the release of sweat from the sweat glands. The sweating releases the water molecules on the skin surface as a result of increased body temperature due to changes in atmospheric temperature. The water molecule from the skin evaporates causing a decrease in body temperature.

The panting increase in the heat loss by respiration, hence, it is also a respond to the increased atmospheric temperature. So, both the conditions are associated with the temperature increase outside the body, here change in temperature act as stimuli and body react according to change.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The muscular system is the set of more than 650 muscles in the body, whose main function is to generate movement, whether voluntary or involuntary.

Explanation:

The functioning of the muscular system can be divided into 3 processes, one voluntary in charge of the skeletal muscles, the other involuntary carried out by the visceral muscles and the last process is the duty of the cardiac muscles and autonomous functioning.

Skeletal muscles allow walking, running, jumping, in short, they empower a multitude of voluntary activities. Except for reflexes, which are the involuntary responses generated as a result of a stimulus. As for involuntary functioning muscles, it can be specified that they perform independently of our will but are supervised and controlled by the nervous system, they are responsible for generating pressure for the transfer of fluids and the transport of substances throughout the organism with the help of peristaltic movements (such as food, during the digestion and excretion process).

The autonomous process takes place in the heart, an organ made of heart muscles. The primary function of this muscle tissue is to contract regularly, millions of times, having to endure fatigue and weariness, or else the heart would stop.

Answer:

A. His mitochondria lack the transport protein that moves pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane.

Explanation:

Pyruvate is from the breakdown of carbohydrates such as glucose through glycolysis. Glucose enters the cytosol through specific transporters (the GLUT family) and is processed by one of several pathways depending on cellular requirements. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol and produces a limited amount of ATP, but the end product is two 3-carbon molecules of pyruvate, which maybe diverted again into many pathways depending on the requirements of the cell. In aerobic conditions, pyruvate is primarily transported into the mitochondrial matrix and converted to acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and carbon dioxide by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC).

Initially it was proposed that pyruvate was able to cross the membrane in its undissociated (acid) form but evaluation of its biochemical properties show that it is largely in its ionic form within the cell and should therefore require a transporter.

Transport of pyruvate across the outer mitochondrial membrane appears to be easily accomplished via large non-selective channels such as voltage-dependent anion channels/porin, which enable passive diffusion. Indeed, deficiencies in these channels have been suggested to block pyruvate metabolism
