Ainat [17]

Answer:E. Down-regulation

Explanation:Cells typically up or down  regulate  depending on  the concentration of a hormone levels. When  there is a excessive  concentration of a hormone in the blood stream, the cell decreases the number of receptors reducing  the interaction  with that hormone, Also, when there is excessive  hormone reduction, the  target cells activate to increase their number of receptors.

Down  regulation occurs by the the deactivating or degrading of target cells to reduce the number of  receptors due to their sensitivity to a particular excess hormone.

what properties of water would be most important in protecting a fish in a shallow pond on a hot summer day?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: High Specific Heat Of Water

Explanation:

Water’s high specific heat helps to maintain low temperature and protects fish life. This is due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in larger amount between water molecules. Of course, specific heat plays a role to capture more energy without rise in temperature.

When heat gets absorbed, water molecules move freely and hydrogen bond gets broken. If temperature decreases, release energy by forming hydrogen bond. Hence, it clearly shows that this water property can drastically change the temperature quickly  which is important in protecting a fish in a shallow pond on a hot summer day.
