Along with insulin, amylin is a hormone that a diabetic pancreas fails to produce. It is comprised of a long chain of amino acid
diamong [38]

Options:

A prostaglandin

B protein hormone

C. peptide hormone

D. steroid hormone

Answer:

Amylin is peptidal harmone. Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>What is hormone?</h3>

Hormones are the chemical messengers of the body. They make their way through your bloodstream to tissues and organs. They have a long-term effect on a variety of processes, including growth and development.

Amylin is a peptide hormone produced in tandem with insulin by the pancreatic -cell and is hence lacking in diabetics. It works as a satiety agent by inhibiting glucagon secretion and delaying stomach emptying. As a result, amylin replacement could potentially improve glycemic control in some diabetics.

Amylin is a 37-amino-acid peptide hormone released by pancreatic beta-cells in response to a food stimulation together with insulin. It is inadequate in Type 1 diabetes patients and increased in Type 2 diabetes patients in the early stages, a disease marked by hyperinsulinemia.

6) How does an offspring of a mushroom or mold (asexual reproduction) compare to its parent?
Verizon [17]

A mushroom or a mold commonly reproduces asexually by the formation of spores. Spores are produced in the sporangium through mitosis involving only one parent. They are released from the parent and germinate into new a mushroom or a mold. The offspring are genetically identical to that parent because their formation do not involve meiosis and fertilization. Spores allow fungi to expand their distribution and colonize new environments.

Which statement is best supported by the data in the graph?  A graph entitled Number of people living with H I V, number of people newly infected with H I V and number of AIDS deaths worldwide from 1990 to 2008 in millions is shown. Year is on the horizontal axis and number of people is on the vertical axis. The number of people living with H I V steadily increases over the years. The number of people newly infected increased from 1990 to 1996 and then began to decrease. The number of deaths due to AIDS increased from 1990 to 2002, and then began to level off and decrease.

A. Since 2000, there has been an increase in the number of people living with HIV, but a decrease in the number of people newly infected with HIV.

B. Since 1990, both the number of new HIV infections and the number of deaths due to AIDS has consistently increased

Explanation:

According to the data shown in the graph, since 2000, the people living with HIV has been increased, but a decrease in the number of people newly infected with HIV.

The reason behind this can be early screening of the infection since 2000 and awareness among people decreasing the infection rate as well.

Hence, the correct option is A.
