Colder temperatures that last for a short period of time such as 3-4 days.
Answer:
Thyroid hormones
Explanation:
Animals and people exposed to pesticides such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, have shown to be affected by their effect on the thyroid. These chemicals can produce endocrine alterations acting as thyroid disrupters. They affect many mechanisms in the organisms such as inhibition of thyroid iodine uptake, <u><em>interference with the thyroid hormone receptor</em></u>, binding to transport proteins, among others. They cause toxicity in the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
There are many studies that associate thyroid diseases with exposure to organochloride pesticides. Significant alteration in the TSH, T3, and T4 levels have been expressed by people directly or indirectly exposed to the chemicals.
Phloem is the food conducting tissue that has a two-way flow.
Explanation:
Plants prepare food on their own and plants also have conductive cells that carry out transportation process. Plants are divided into two types based on their conductive system i.) vascular plants ii.) non vascular plants.
Vascular plants are those plants which have special conductive cells called phloem and xylem.
Xylem transports water from roots of the plants to other parts of plants and also provides mechanical support to plant. It is uni-directional.
Phloem is the food conducting tissue that transports food to plant and also have bi-directional movement.
Binary fission refers to the type of asexual reproduction. It is the most general kind of reproduction in prokaryotes like bacteria. It takes place in some unicellular cells like Paramecium and Amoeba.
Answer and Explanation:
Nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to segregate during anaphase I or sister chromatids fail to segregate during anaphase II. The result is an addition or loss of one or more chromosomes. Nondisjunction is associated with disorders like Down's syndrome due to an extra chromosome, Klinefelter's syndrome or Turner's syndrome. These phenomenon where one has three members of homologous chromosome is called trisomy.
