The two thyroid hormones, thyroxine and triiodothyronine, have complementary effects in which they decrease the rate of cellular

metabolism and oxygen consumption in almost every cell in the body.

b. False

Artemon [7]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The thyroid gland secrete two thyroid hormones called thyroxine and triiodothyronine. Thyroxine is the in active form which is later converted to the active form triiodothyronine by kidneys and livers. The two hormones function by increasing the metabolic activities of tissues. They increase the body heat production which in turn increase oxygen consumption and ATP hydrolysis because they burn body fat thereby increasing energy production and increasing basal metabolic rate. They regulate body temperature.

What type of energy is coming into the food web?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The vast majority of energy that exists in food webs originates from the sun and is converted (transformed) into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis in plants. A small proportion of this chemical energy is transformed directly into heat when compounds are broken down during resp​iration in plants.

Scientists use DNA sequencing to understand relationships among life on Earth. The chart illustrates differences between five sp
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

With respect to the differences in the DNA sequence of six species, including the human one, it is true that the DNA sequences may vary but the aminoacid sequences are identical.

Explanation:

Options for this question:

  • <em>The DNA sequences may vary but the amino acid sequences are identical. </em>
  • The nitrogen bases in the nucleotides must also be different in each.
  • The process in producing additional DNA, replication, is identical in all six.
  • The process of producing DNA, or replication, varies due to the differences in the DNA codes.

The different species that exist have specific genomes for each of them, this is the <u>genetic information contained in the DNA varies from one species to another</u>, as can be seen in the scheme (see image). However, the genetic code is universal, and does not vary from one species to another.

The genetic code is found in the RNA molecule and is a sequence of nucleotides that, organized in triplets (codons), are responsible for the synthesis of specific amino acids. An RNA molecule contains the information necessary for protein synthesis.

The scheme shows the differences of five species with respect to the human, based on the respective DNA sequences. But what it does not show is a universally accepted truth, that the nucleotide sequence encoding an amino acid is the same for each of these species.

One of the four fundamental interactions in nature is? Electromagnetism Gravity Strong interaction All of the above
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The correct answer is  All of the above. In nature there are four forces, (also called interactions or fields in Physics) that are responsible for all phenomena in the universe: the gravitational force or interaction, the strong interaction, the electromagnetic and the weak nuclear.

Explanation:

The fundamental interactions or forces that describe all the interactions between the constituents of matter are each of the interactions that matter can undergo and that cannot be decomposed into more basic interactions. There are four basic forces that describe all interactions: Gravitational, that is responsible for the interaction between particles with mass and, by extension, for the configuration on a macroscopic scale of the Universe and its stability. Electromagnetic, is responsible for the interaction between electrically charged particles and, by extension, for all Chemical reactions, Weak is responsible for the disintegration of certain unstable particles; that is, of those processes in which some particles decompose (decay) into lighter ones and Strong interaction is the most complicated interaction to describe due to its different behaviors at different action distances; by means of which a global vision of the to physics without breaking it down.
