A way to safely increase GLP-1 in humans

GLP-1 refers to "Glucagon-like peptide-1." It is a 30 amino acid long peptide hormone responsible for several functions in the body including the promotion of insulin production in a glucose-dependent manner. GLP-1 is also known to decrease a person's appetite by inhibiting gastric emptying, acid secretion and motility in the stomach. Other possible functions of GLP-1 include protective and regulatory effects in different tissues in the body including the heart, lungs, muscles, bones, kidneys, and several others.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Golgi apparatus, a membrane-bound organelle with cisternae, delivers proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum to where they are needed- such as for secretion outside the cell. Fused vesicles with proteins/lipids that pinch off from the <em>trans</em> end of the ER fuse with the <em>cis</em> end of the Golgi apparatus delivering the ‘cargo’. The proteins/lipids are then given post-translation modified and ‘marked’ for different deliveries. At the trans end of the Golgi apparatus, the vesicles pinch-off with the modified proteins and transported to their destination.

He commented that it looked peculiarly like cells or little rooms which friars occupied, in this way determining the name. However what Hooke really observed was the dead cell dividers of plant cells (cork) as it showed up under the magnifying lens.</span>

Why dont plants photosynthesise in the dark
nignag [31]

Plants respire all the time, whether it is dark or light, because their cells need energy to stay alive. But they can only photosynthesize when they have light.

The oxidation of water occurs during photosynthetic electron transport during the light reactions of photosynthesis. In the absence of a source of light energy (dark reactions have no direct requirement for light energy), oxygen is not produced.
