1 answer:

3 0

Insulation isa property of objects that inhibits heat transfer and its counter property is conduction.
As much hot air is pressured into the room space by a condiitioner, the heat accumulates. The objects we have at home like cloth, wood and other objects inhibits or gradually slows the heat to escape and going onto the cold areas outside. This prevents the room temperature from shrinking from its desired state.

The production of red blood cells is regulated by a feedback loop involving erythropoietin. In non-disease states, the productio

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Negative feedback.

Explanation:

The production of erythropoietin by the liver and kidneys is a negative feedback because with the production of erythropoietin, our body tends to move to become more stable state. The erythropoietin is produced by the liver and kidneys to increase the production of red blood cells if the quantity of red blood cells are lower than the normal range. If the number of red blood cells are decreases the oxygen level in our body is low that leads to unstable condition of the body but when the concentration of red blood cells increases, the body move towards stability.

Organize the lengths below from shortest to longest.

Hoochie [10]

Organize the lengths below from shortest to longest.

28 dm ,629,000 mm ,1.2 km, 30,277 cm

To answer this, all values should be converted in the same unit just like in km

28 dm = 0.0028 km

629,000 mm = 0.629 km

1.2 km

30,277 cm = 0.30277 km

So the order is 28 dm, 30,277 cm , 629,000 mm and 1.2 km

What genes control the growth of cell growth? What is the purpose of this regulation? What happened when the cell growth is not regulated?

Above are the questions which an observe would ask about regulation of cell growth. A number of genes such as oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are involved in the regulation of cell growth and cell division. Regulation of cell growth process ensures that a cell's DNA which is dividing is copied properly as well as repair errors in the DNA. It also ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes in order to gain healthy daughter cells.
