The endocrine system is composed of the following:

1) hypothalamus
2) pituitary gland
3) thyroid and parathyroids
4) adrenal glands
5) pineal gland and gonads
6) pancreas

Pituitary gland is involved in gigantism. Pituitary gland produces the growth hormone. Excessive growth hormone released by the pituitary may result to gigantism.

The enlargement of the thyroid gland is called goiter. It is a symptom of hypherthyroidism, a condition wherein levels of thyroid hormones in the blood are highly excessive.

A stem cell that has the potential to differentiate into any cell derived from either the endoderm, ectoderm, or mesoderm lineag
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Totipotential.

Explanation:

There are different cell potencies. A <u>totipotent</u> cell is a stem cell that can divide itself and <u>differentiate in any cell </u>that the organism needs. That is to say, endodermal cells, ectodermal cells, mesodermal cells, or extra-embryonic tissues. As cells differentiate themselves, they can gradually lose their potential. The cell's category that follows is pluripotent cells. These are stem cells that can only differentiate into ectoderm cells, endoderm cells, or mesoderm cells. Then we have multipotent cells, which differentiate into tissue cells. The next category is oligopotent cells. They give a limited number of specific cells, and lastly unipotent cells, only differentiate in one type of cell.

you find eggs of a bot fly sticking to the hairs of your horse's ankles. what subfamily do these eggs likely belong to?
bazaltina [42]

Where on find eggs of a Bot Fly sticking to the hairs of your horse's ankles. The subfamily that these eggs likely belong to are: Gasterophilinae.

<h3>What is Gasterophilinae?</h3>

The Gasterophilinae are a subfamily of the Oestridae that comprises huge, parasitic flies; this group was previously classified as a family, but all subsequent classifications locate them squarely within the Oestridae. Many members of this subfamily spend part of their larval lives in herbivore digestive systems.

Gasterophilus intestinalis, often known as the horse bot fly, is a species of insect in the Oestridae family that may be found all over the world. The adults, which resemble bumblebees, are most active throughout the summer.

Female botflies deposit eggs on blood-sucking arthropods like mosquitoes and ticks to reproduce. When afflicted arthropods attack a person or another mammal, larvae from the eggs are released. A botfly larva burrows into subcutaneous tissue after entering the host's skin through a bite wound or a hair follicle.

1. How do your respiratory and excretory systems interact?
Veronika [31]
I think that for 1 it’s either A or B as the kidneys and everything get air and the lungs release it.
For 2 is probably D as the others don’t really make much sense.
