Answer: diabetes mellitus
Explanation:
This is a disease condition associated with elevated blood glucose levels.
It is due to abnormalities of the Pancreas. The pancreas coordinates two hormones INSULIN AND GLUCAGON in its cells.
INSULIN converts excess sugar to GLYCOGEN while GLUCAGON breaks down GLYCOGEN to sugar when blood glucose/glucose levels drops.
If the pancreas beta-cells of glucose are faulty, INSULIN fails to converts excess glucose to glycogen; therefore glucose builds up in the blood plasma,and failed to enter the needed cells. Large amount of glucose is wasted in urine.This is diabetes Mellitus.
The two types of diabetes are:
Type 1 and Type 2.
Answer:
The parasite would affect the brain of the lynx and the brain of the hare
Explanation:
Toxoplasma gondii is a parasite that is able to infect pretty much every warm blooded animal on the planet. It is an obligate intracellular parasitic one-celled eukaryote. This parasite manages to cause the infectious disease known as toxoplasmosis which damages the brain. The hare is a warm blooded animal, and it can be infected by this parasite. If the hare is infected and a Canadian lynx kills that particular hare and consumes it, then the lynx will also be infected with the parasite. The parasite will cause damage to the lynx's brain which will result in the dying of that lynx.
All annelids and arthropods have a body plan. Unlike annelids, arthropods also have a coelom, and a segmented body. The circulatory system of annelids is closed, while the circulatory system of arthropods is opened.
Arthropods are invertebrate organism that possess a stiff exoskeleton, a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages. Arthropods include insects, crustaceans, myriapods, and arachnids. Arthropods possess an open circulatory system; a system without blood vessels. The circulatory system of arthropods is made up of a tube (the heart), and an open hemocoel (in which the blood moves).
Annelids are invertebrate animals that have a body cavity, movable bristles, and a segmented body. Annelids include earthworms, and leeches. The circulatory system of annelids is closed; blood circulates through a closed system of blood vessels.
Answer:
flexion - depression
extension - elevation
adduction - medial rotation
abduction - lateral rotation
Explanation:
Flexion is the process of bending an arm or leg. It occurs as a result of the contraction of the muscles. Depression is a downward movement. Hence, flexion refers to the depression of an arm or leg.
Extension is the process of stretching the body parts. Elevation is an upward movement. Hence, extension refers to the elevation of body parts.
Adduction is the movement of a limb or other part of the body towards the midline or another part of the body. The movement of the limb towards the midline of the body is known as medial rotation.
Abduction is the movement of a limb or other part of the body away from the midline of the body. The movement of the limb away from the midline of the body is known as lateral rotation.
