Answer:
B. Glucagon
Explanation:
Glucagon is a pancreatic hormone, secreted by the alpha cells of islets of Langerhans. Whenever the blood glucose level falls, glucagon is released to increase the blood glucose levels. This function of glucagon is quite opposite to the function of insulin and hence both are antagonistic hormones. Insulin reduces the blood glucose where as glucagon increases the blood glucose.
Glucoagon is large polypeptide of 29 amino acids. Since it helps in increasing the blood glucose homeostatic levels it is called as hyperglycemic hormone. It does so by stimulating certain processes such as:
- Stimulating Glycogenolysis i.e breakdown of glycogen to release more glucose from liver.
- Stimulating Gluconeogenesis i.e. synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources like proteins.
- Glucagon inhibits the process of glycogenesis i.e. synthesis of glycogen, the storage form of glucose.
Yes, this is true, and it is actually one of the organisms driving evolution! Some organisms develop mutations that are actually beneficial (better eye-sight, for example) and they're more likely to pass those to their children that individuals without those mutations!
Answer:
The correct option is D) UAG, UAA, UGA
Explanation:
The amino acid sequencing code or mRNA code contains specific codes which start and stop the process of translation at the right time. If the stop codon were not present then the ribosomal machinery would have made faulty proteins. If the stop codons are not at the right place, then it results in the production of faulty proteins. The stop codons which terminate the process of translation are UAG, UAA and UGA.
Answer No 1:
Process 1 is cellular respiration. Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen are converted into water and carbon dioxide. ATP is released by this process which is used as an energy source.
Process 2 is anaerobic respiration. It is a process which occurs in the absence of oxygen. This process will also yield ATP.
Answer No 2:
The process 1, cellular respiration, is known to produce 38 molecules of ATP. Out of these, 2 molecules are the result from the process of glycolysis, 2 molecules arise from Kreb's cycle, rest 34 are known to occur from the electron transport chain.
The process of anaerobic respiration is known to make 2 molecules of ATP in total.
