<h2>Answer:</h2>

Gastrin and Glucagon

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Two primary hormones that are secreted by the pancreas are:

Gastrin: This hormone helps in digestion by stimulating certain cells in the stomach to produce acid.

Glucagon: Glucagon helps insulin to maintain normal blood glucose by working in the opposite way of insulin.

After we finish taking shower the pancreas releases these two primary hormones.

Answer:

Insulin and glucagon.

Explanation:

The pancreas produces two important hormones in regulating the blood glucose (sugar) rate: insulin and glucagon.

Insulin facilitates the entry of glucose into cells (where it will be used for energy production) and storage in the liver as glycogen. It removes excess glucose from the blood, sending it into the cells or liver. This occurs shortly after meals when the blood sugar rises. Lack or low insulin production causes diabetes, a disease characterized by excess blood glucose (hyperglycemia).

Glucagon works in the opposite way to insulin. When the body is left without food for many hours, the blood sugar level drops a lot and the person may have hypoglycemia, which gives the sensation of weakness, dizziness and may even faint. When hypoglycemia occurs, the pancreas produces glucagon, which acts on the liver, stimulating it to “break down” glycogen into glucose molecules. The glucose is then sent to the blood, normalizing the sugar rate.

What role does evolution play in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria?
tiny-mole [99]

<u>1</u><u>.</u><u>Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.</u>

<u>2</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Bacteria evolve quickly because they grow fast and can share genes. Helpful mutations spread quickly in bacteria.</u>

<u>3</u><u>.</u><u>Taking antibiotics too often or for the wrong reasons can change bacteria so much that antibiotics don't work against them. This is called bacterial resistance or antibiotic resistance</u>

<u>4</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Antibiotic resistance leads to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics.</u>

Photosynthesis is the main method by which primary production takes place in an ecosystem. What abiotic factor is a beneficial b
iris [78.8K]

Oxygen is an abiotic factor that is beneficial by-product of primary production.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The non living parts of an ecosystem that mainly affects the living organisms in it are called as an abiotic factor. These can include soil, temperature, water, oxygen and sunlight. The major energy source in earth is Oxygen which is abiotic factor.

It is very essential for the photosynthesis process to take place. Here, the plants converts water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and sugar. This becomes food for plants. Then these plants are eaten by animals. Thus oxygen is an important and beneficial by-product of photosynthesis. Oxygen is also very important for the survival of human beings.

Which of the following statements is true?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: Fewer harmful mutations are inherited by sexual reproduction than by asexual reproduction.

Explanation:

A germline mutation is the mutation in the germ cells (of the fully developed sperm and ovum) of the parents. When the affected parents undergoes with the sexual reproduction the mutations are passed from the parents to the offsprings. When either the mutated oocyte or mutated sperm meet to form a zygote the precursor of new life. Thus few mutations are inherited by sexual reproduction than by asexual reproduction.
