The Simple cuboidal epithelium forms thyroid gland and secretes hormones is shown in the picture attached.

Its main functions are secretion and absorption. It has an abundance of organelles to facilitate active transport frequently found in glands, such as salivary glands, the thyroid gland, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.

The epithelial cells tend to be cubical in form after they are inactive, however additional columnar after they are actively secreting hormones.
The epithelial cells accumulate iodine from the blood and use this component within the synthesis of thyroglobulin, an oversized compound protein that forms the mixture.

What is the relationship between light intensity and gas production?

balandron [24]

Answer:

As light intensity increases (distance between lamp and plant decreases) the volume of oxygen (or the rate of bubble production) increases. This indicates that the rate of photosynthesis increases with light intensity. However, at sufficiently high levels of light intensity, the rate oxygen evolution remains constant.

1. Which of the following are factors that both unicellular and multicellular organisms actively balance in order to achieve hom

MrMuchimi

The correct options are as follows:
1. C
Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintains constant internal environment. Maintaining homeostasis is very important because the survival of the living organism depend on it. In order to maintain homeostasis, the amount of wastes, nutrients and water that is in an organism must be controlled and maintained at optimum level.
2. A.
An organism that can not maintain an homeostasis will die. This is because, lack of homeostasis will disrupt the biochemical reactions which sustains the life activities of the organism and once the biochemical reactions that produce life energy can no longer take place the organism will die.
3. A.
For both unicellular and multi cellular organisms, when they are exposed to water containing no salt, much of the water will move into their cells. This happened because, the level of salt in the interior of the living cells is higher and so the water will move from the medium which has no salt to the inside to the cell where there is salt. This process is known as osmosis. In osmosis water move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of low salt concentration level to the region of higher salt level concentration.
4. D.
Cells in living organisms are able to maintain homeostasis by specializing in specific functions and by working together in cooperatively. Each cell has its own functions which it performs; in the process of its duty, it communicates with other cells which also help it in order to achieve common goals, which is maintenance of homeostasis within the cell.
