Glucagon
This is a hormone that deals with blood sugar homeostasis. When blood sugar levels are low, glucagon is produced to convert the fats in the reserve back to glucose until normal levels are achieved.
Explanation:
Bone remodeling involves coordinations of osteoclasts and osteoblasts cells in the bone. The former breaks down bone tissue while the latter mineralizes bones. Calcium is the main ion in the body significant in mineralization of bone. Excess Ca2+ is stored in bone while low calcium levels in blood result in bone resorption.
Stress on a bone also causes increased mineralization to strengthen the bone against this stress. This is why astronauts when they go to space, due to less stress from low gravity, bone loses its mass. When they return back to earth, the bone readjusts to the increased stress from higher gravity by increased mineralization.
The hormone responsible for bone homeostasis is parathyroid hormone.

Sporophyte to spores</h2>
Answer:
All the above keywords conclude a process used by plant which is known as photosynthesis. This process is done by all the green plants in the presence of sunlight and also in dark.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is defined as the process by which all the green plants prepare their food in the presence of sunlight by the use of water, minerals and carbon dioxide. Chloroplast provides green color to the plant and it is also known as photosynthesis site. Glucose is the product and oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis.
Calvin cycle is a type of photosynthesis that is also followed by some. the energy released is counted in the terms of ATP which is also known as adenosine triphosphate. Sunlight plays a role of catalyst in the formation of food by the process of photosynthesis
Blue photons drive the photosynthetic reaction, although from an energy standpoint, one might consider them less efficient than green or red photons because their high energy isn't fully utilized; some of the energy is essentially lost compared to photosynthetic photons with a longer (less energetic) wavelength.
