OLEGan [10]

Answer:

c. Magma composition and cooling rate.

Explanation:

A rock cycle can be defined as a concept used to describe the continuous process that leads to a rock's creation, formation, transformation from one form to another, destruction and reformation over a specific period of time. The natural phenomenons that influences the rock cycle are weathering, plate tectonic activity, erosion, etc.

Basically, the three (3) main types of rocks are; metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock and igneous rock.

All igneous rocks are produced from magma (lava) and formed at the Earth’s surface, thereby, causing them to have a coarse texture and dark colors.

Generally, the cooling and solidification of magma (lava) leads to the formation of an igneous rock, either when the melted rock is still inside the continental crust of the Earth or at volcanoes on the Earth's surface.

Hence, magma composition and cooling rate determines the type of igneous rock that forms from magma. Some examples of an igneous rock are granite, obsidian, tuff, basalt, rhyolite, andesite, pegmatite, dacite, scoria, pumice, etc.

How can insulin deficiency lead to an increase in blood glucose concentration?
MakcuM [25]

When insulin is deficient , GLUT4 transporters are not inserted into the cell membranes , glucose is not transported into the cells and the blood glucose concentration increases.

Insulin deficiency provides more amino acid and glycerol substrates for glucose synthesis  ie increased gluconeogenesis .

With a deficiency of insulin, there is both increased hepatic glucose production through increased glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis as well as decreased glucose use. The result is hyperglycemia.

Of the answer choices, what is the most likely reason that paracrine signaling does not activate the cell that is producing the
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is The cells do not have proper receptor.

Explanation:

During paracrine signaling a signaling molecules are generated from one cell.The generated signaling molecule then binds to the receptor of neighboring cell to carry specific signal from donor cell to the acceptor cell.

  But the signaling molecules will not bind to the cell that is producing it because that producing cell do not contain proper receptor to bind that signaling molecule.

 The binding of signaling molecule to the receptor of its producing cell occur during autocrine signaling.
