Answer: Agriculture is the science or practice of farming, including cultivation of the soil for the growing of crops and the rearing of animals to provide food, wool, and other products.
Explanation:
Answer:
-activation of glycogen phosphorylase
-activation of PKA (cAMP‑dependent protein kinase)
-conversion of ATP to cAMP
-activation of fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase‑1)
Explanation:
The binding of glucagon to its receptors affects the production of glucose in the liver. Once the glucagon receptors are activated, it leads to the activation of adenylate cyclase in which in turn increases the levels of cAMP (cyclic AMP) conversion from ATP. The increased level of cAMP then activates PKA (protein kinase A). PKA results in the phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase which results to the activation of fructose 1,6‑bisphosphatase (FBPase‑1) which results to decrease in glycolysis.
Furthermore, PKA activates phosphorylase kinase which results to the activation of glycogen phosphorylase and hence glycogenolysis. Glycogenolysis occurs when Glucose-1- phosphate is then released from glycogen. PKA also inhibits the action of glycogen synthase.
Answer:
Naloxone is an antagonist at opioid receptors and heroin is an agonist at opioid receptors
Explanation:
An agonist is a substance that binds to a receptor and causes a biological reaction. In this case, heroine binds to opioid receptors. An antagonist blocks the reaction from the agonist, impeding the receptor's activation. Agonists and antagonists work for specific receptors, and for an antagonist to block an agonist they must bind to the same receptor, like naloxone does with heroin. Giving an antagonist that binds to one receptor and and agonist that binds to a different one means that the antagonist will have no effect.
Answer:
B. The <em>pituitary</em> gland
Explanation:
Can't be the ovaries, they're down by the hips!
Can't be adrenal glands, they're on top of the kidneys!
Can't be the thyroid, that's low on the front of the neck or something like that!
It's B, the pituitary; it's on the base of the brain.
Have a great day!
