Endocrine gland - a group of cells that secretes substances into the blood or directly into an organ.
Differ from exocrine glands, endocrine glands have no ducts and secrete products (hormones) directly into blood.
Hormone - a substance produced by cells that helps specific groups of cells to perform specific functions. It is a product of endocrine gland which functions as chemical messengers to stimulate other cells.
Duct – a channel or tube that conveys a substance. It is part of the exocrine glands (such as salivary glands) which makes contact with surface .
Answer:
A) Calcitonin injection
Explanation:
Parafollicular cells or C-cells of the thyroid gland produce a hormone which is involved in the regulation of calcium levels in the blood. This hormone is Calcitonin. It works in an antagonistic manner with the Parathyroid hormone (PTH). Calcitonin decreases the calcium level in the blood by increasing absorption of calcium ions in bones. In osteoporosis, when the patient is given the injection of hormone calcitonin, it produces and increase in bone mass because it negatively affects the rate of absorption of bone by the osteoclasts.
To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.
Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.
We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.
<u>P</u> <u>P</u>
p| Pp Pp
p | Pp Pp
As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.
Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.
Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.
