Out of the following given choices;

a. Drink additional water to prevent dehydration.

b. Eat something with 15 g of simple carbohydrates.

c. Go to the first aid station to have glucose checked.

d. Take another dose of the oral agent.


The answer is B. The stated symptoms are symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). The exercises drained glucose from her blood as the muscles used up the glucose in respiration. Since diabetics have flawed insulin protein that is incapable of enabling cells take up glucose and hepatocytes to make glucose, the blood sugar levels drop to critical levels that threaten body functions.

Which of the following is NOT one of the Nervous System Functions?. Single choice.
Neko [114]

Answer:

4. Absorb extra fluid between the cells

Explanation:

The nervous system (SN) is a complex system that acts to receive sensory information through nerves, transmit this information via the spinal cord and finally process it in the brain. The SN has three main roles: sensory input, processing and motor output. The SN can be divided into the central nervous system (composed of the brain and spinal cord), and the peripheral nervous system (composed of those nerves located outside the brain and spinal cord). Moreover, the extracellular fluid between the cells comprises four types of fluids: 1-intravascular fluid (blood), 2-interstitial fluid, 3--transcellular fluid and 4-cerebrospinal fluid. The excess of these fluids is absorbed by the capillaries of the lymphatic system.

If a particular cell is known to be round and incapable of producing its own food, which one of these organelles would you assum
UNO [17]

If a particular cell is known to be round and incapable of producing its own food, such a cell would not be a plant cell. As such, from the options below:

  • <em>CENTRAL VACUOLE </em>
  • <em>plasma membrane </em>
  • <em> cell wall </em>
  • <em> chloroplast</em>

The correct answer as to which of the organelles the cell must have would be the plasma membrane.

  • central vacuole, cell wall, and chloroplast are all characteristic of plant cells.
  • All cell types have plasma membrane.

Hence, since it has been established that the cell is not a plant cell, the only organelle left that the cell cannot do without is the plasma membrane.

Complete the flowchart to identify the process by which blue-light photoreceptors and auxin control phototropism in plants.
DaniilM [7]
In plant seeds, the photoreceptor phytochrome is responsible for the process termed photomorphogenesis<span>. This occurs when a seed initially situated in an environment of complete darkness is exposed to light. A brief exposure to electromagnetic radiation, particularly that whose wavelength is within the red and far-red lights, results in the activation of the photorecepter phytochrome within the seed. This in turn sends a signal through the signal transduction pathway into the nucleus, and triggers hundreds of genes responsible for growth and development</span>
