1. The right answer is - Hypothalamus (manufactured by the hypothalamus, stored in the pituitary gland).

Vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone, is a peptide hormone synthesized by the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus, and released by the posterior pituitary gland (neurohypophysis).

It mainly has an anti-diuretic role in the kidney, where it causes a reabsorption of water via an action on the distal segment of the nephron during a dehydration body. Its gene is AVP located on human chromosome 20.


2. The right answer is - Increased Secretion of Vasopressin To Maintain Less Loss Of Water.

Vasopressin has an antidiuretic action: it decreases the volume of urine by increasing the water permeability of the collecting tube. It binds to the V2 receptor, which is coupled to a Gα protein, which activates a signaling cascade through the PKA. This causes the synthesis of aquaporin 2 (transmembrane pore) as well as its translocation to the apical / urinary membrane.

Ancient Greek philosophers spent lots of time thinking about science and imaging explanations for the natural world. What part o
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Experiments

Explanation:

The ancient Greek philosophers spent more time philosophising and thinking about scientific explanations to phenomena in the natural world.

How ever, they relied solely on reasoning while attempting to explain scientific observations. Contemporarily, science is highly empirical. The scientific process can only be complete when scientific observations are subjects to rigorous experiments in order go determine the actual relationship between variables and provide better explanation for scientific observations.

Hence the ancient Greek philosophers should have used experiments rather than sole reason in proffering scientific explanations to natural phenomena.

An example of the role of cultural practices shaping natural selection on genes that affect human health concerns
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The correct answer here is D) None of the above

Explanation:

Lactose intolerance and sucrose intolerance in themselves are not practices but side effects of practices that affect health concerns.

For instance, research shows that cultures with a long history of dairy farming and milk drinking or at least a history of drinking milk have a much higher likelihood to be <u>lactose tolerant</u> than those who don't. And when they can tolerate lactose their bodies take note of this and records the same in their genetic databank.

Cheers!
