Adult male humans generally have deeper voices than do adult female humans, which is the direct result of higher levels of testo

sterone causing growth of the larynx. If the fossil records of apes and humans alike show a trend toward decreasing larynx size in adult females and increasing larynx size in adult males, then
A) sexual dimorphism was developing over time in these species.
B) intrasexual selection seems to have occurred.
C) the ʺgood genesʺ hypothesis was refuted by these data.
D) stabilizing selection was occurring in these species concerning larynx size.
E) selection was acting more directly upon genotype than upon phenotype.

Answer:

<h2>A</h2>

Explanation:

Testosterone is only found in males and absent in female.

Testosterone  is a sex hormone in males which helps in development in primary s organs, sex accessory organs and many other organs.

Testosterone causing growth of the larynx in males only because in females this hormone is absent so sexual dimorphism was developing over time in these species.

Due to increase in growth of the larynx in males, result as  adult male humans generally have large larynx and  deeper voices than do adult female humans.

What are the primary functions of the pentose phosphate pathway? a) to provide NADPH for reductive biosynthesis and for dealing
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a) to provide NADPH for reductive biosynthesis and for dealing with oxidative stress

d) to provide ribose-phosphate for nucleotide and nucleic acid biosynthesis

Explanation:

During the pentose phosphate pathway, glucose 6-phosphate is oxidized into pentose phosphates. This pathway uses NADP as an electron acceptor and reduces it into NADPH. The products of this pathway, the pentose phosphates are used by the cells to synthesize nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The pentose phosphates are also used for the synthesis of nucleotides and coenzymes such as NADH, FADH2, etc.

These synthetic pathways are particularly occurring at a higher rate in the rapidly dividing cells such as the cells of bone marrow, skin. The NADPH formed during this pathway is used by cells as an electron donor for the reactions of reductive biosynthesis. Some of these pathways are the synthesis of fatty acids, cholesterol and steroid hormones. NADPH is also involved in scavenging reactive oxygen species such as oxygen radicals. These ROS are responsible for oxidative stress.

Choose the appropriate term to fill in the sentence: when mrs. m ate, her intestinal contents became __________ to her blood. he
KonstantinChe [14]
<span>The answer to this question would be: hypertonic, hypotonic

After eating, the intestine is filled with food that will be digested. Food that digested will turn into a much smaller unit of carbohydrate, amino acid and fatty acid that will cause the intestine to have hypertonic solution compared to the blood. This will induce diffusion of some molecule to the intestinal cell, and then to the blood.</span>
