The process that makes it possible for major organs of the body to be formed by 10th week of human development is differentiation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Human development is started off by the process of fertilization in which the sperm and ovum fuse to form zygote. In human beings fertilization takes place in the oviduct of the female. The zygote that is formed undergoes mitosis to form the embryo.

The embryo then gets embedded in the uterine walls. It continues dividing and differentiating into several organs. Almost all of the organs are formed by tenth week of pregnancy even though they aren’t fully developed.

The embryo has three layers namely ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm. Ectoderm develops into outermost skin layer, central and peripheral nervous system, eyes and inner ears. Baby’s heart and circulatory system is formed from the mesoderm and the baby’s lungs and intestine develop from the innermost layer called endoderm.

What is Acetyl-coA and how does it help with food digestion ?

artcher [175]

Answer: what is Acetyl CoA is made from pyruvate under aerobic conditions in the mitochondria. The process of conversion is irreversible. I don't know the other half I'm sorry.

Explanation:

Acetyl CoA Used by the citric acid cycle as a fuel. Carbon acetyl groups are converted to CO2 and ATP and electrons (carried by NADH and FADH2) create even MORE electrons. Acetyl CoA is made from pyruvate under aerobic conditions in the mitochondria. The Process of conversion is irreversible.

How do the hormones of the pancreas maintain homeostasis?

faust18 [17]

Hormones glucagon and insulin are produced in the alpha and beta cells respectively in the Islet of Langerhan in the pancreas. They are involved in the negative feedback system of blood glucose regulation in homeostasis.

GLUCAGON: when there is a low blood glucose concentration, the pancreas detect this and alpha cells produce and release glucagon. Glucagon causes the cells of the body to absorb less glucose from the blood. It also inhibits the process of converting glucose into glycogen (glycogenesis) and cause gluconeogenesis (process of converting amino acids/proteins and lipids/fats into glucose) and glycogenolysis (conversion of glycogen to glucose). Finally, glucagon decreases the rate of respiration so less glucose is required.

INSULIN: when blood glucose is high, insulin is released. Insulin binds with cell surface receptors of cells and activates the enzymes attached to the receptor. The enzymes cause a conformational change in the structural proteins that surround glucose transport protein containing vesicles, causing them to move out of the way so the vesicles migrate up to the cell membrane and glucose transport proteins can fuse with it. Thus, more glucose can be taken in by cells. Insulin also cause glycogenesis (converting glucose into glycogen) and inhibits gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis.

Basically insulin decreases blood glucose concentration (eg. after eating) and glucagon increases it (eg. skipping breakfast in the morning)
