Answer:

d. Epinephrine

Explanation:

The adrenal glands which are located at the top of each kidney are made up of two parts: the cortex and the medulla.  

The adrenal cortex is the outer part of the adrenal gland, while the inner part is the adrenal medulla.

The adrenal medulla has tissues that are composed of popstganglionic sympathetic nervous system neurons which are involved in stimulating the medulla to secrete the epinephrine and norepinephrine hormones.

Epinephrine functions to increase cardiac output and increase level of glucose in the blood when the body is exposed to threat or stress.

nydimaria [60]

<u>Stem cell </u>research has the potential to significantly impact the development of disease-modifying treatments for Parkinson’s disease with considerable progress made in creating dopamine-progressing cells.

Explanation:

Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative disease, leads to reduction of dopamine (a neurochemical messenger which carries messages involving thinking and body movements to brain) in the body because the disease will target and kill dopamine-producing nerve cells (neurons). This leads to loss of movement and thinking abilities which are activated by dopamine.

Stem cells research is done to study about the prospects of stem cells in stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s patients as a viable source of new dopamine nerve cells. Research has been involved in growing stem cells to replace or regenerate dopamine-producing nerve cells by using embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells as a treatment modality in Parkinson’s disease.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It will result /lead to side effect that could be fatal and life threatening since its inactivation time is longer thus the effect of the large dose will be more pronounced and long lasting.

Explanation:

An hormone agonist is a compound/molecule that can bind to the hormone specific receptor leading to the activation of the endocrine gland, the biosynthesis of secreted hormone and the eliciting the physiological effects of such hormone. Androgenic anabolic efficacy  of steroids is usually goverened by their receptor binding andspecificity and their biotransformation from active to inactive form. Possible  side effect include elevated blood pressure, voice deepening, decease libido, early myocardial infarction and many more
