These are all hypothalamic hormones except
Paul [167]

Answer:

The correct answer is luteinizing hormone.

Explanation:

Hypothalamus has two sets of nerve cells that produce hormones. One set sends the hormones that are anti-diuretic hormone and oxytocin. ADH regulates or water in the bloodstream by reabsorption of water at the kidney and oxytocin helps in pregnancy and breastfeeding.

The other set produces hormones growth regulating, stress releasing and stimulating and inhibiting hormones are dopamine, corticotrophin-releasing hormone, growth hormone-releasing hormone, gonadotropin-releasing hormone, somatostatin, and thyrotropin-releasing hormone.

Luteinizing hormone is secreted by the pituitary gland. It is one of the main hormones that control the reproductive system.

Thus, the correct answer is luteinizing hormone.

The ability of one person to produce over a million different antibody molecules does not require over a million different genes
Tema [17]

Answer:

DNA rearrangment.

Explanation:

Genetics can be defined as the scientific study of hereditary in living organisms such as humans, animals and plants.

The human somatic cell is made up of 46 chromosomes which are sub-divided into 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y). An autosome is one of the numbered chromosome that is typically not a sex chromosome.

On the other hand, sex chromosomes (X and Y) are responsible for determining the gender or sex of living organisms such as humans.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is an organic complex-molecular structure found in all living organisms. It comprises of genes and is essentially the foundation block of all living organisms such as humans, animals and plants.

DNA rearrangment can be defined as a process which typically involves re-writing the informations contained within a Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) into a Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) by enzyme RNA polymerase.

Hence, the ability of an individual to produce over a million different antibody molecules doesn't require the use of over a million different genes; rather, this wide range of antibody production is due to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) rearrangment.

Generally, the hormones secretin and cholecystokinin which are released by duodenal enteroendocrine cells will ________. decreas
aniked [119]

Answer:

c. increase the release of digestive enzymes and bile

Explanation:

Secretin and cholecystokinin are hormones produced in the duodenal region of the small intestine. They are both involved in the release of digestive enzymes and bile.

Secretin is actively involved in controlling the pH of the chyme when it enters the duodenum from the stomach. It does so by inhibiting the release of gastric acid from the parietal cells in the stomach. Secretin induces the release of sodium bicarbonate ions from the pancreas which help to increase the pH of the chyme. This hormone also stimulates the secretion of bile.

Cholecystokinin (CCK) stimulates the contraction of the gallbladder and the release of bile into the duodenum. CCK also acts on the pancreas, stimulating it to produce pancreatic juices for digestion.
