Hello,

Glucose
The body must regulate glucose levels to stay healthy. When glucose levels become too high, the body releases a hormone called insulin. When they become too low, the body converts the glycogen in the blood to glucose.

Blood Pressure
The body must maintain healthy levels of blood pressure. To do so, the brain sends signals to the heart to speed up or slow down according to the blood pressure.

Temperature
The body must maintain a relatively constant temperature. If it gets too hot, the body employs vasodilation to cool down. This dilates the blood vessels, allowing more heat to escape from them through the skin


hope this help
have a nice day

The term for energy of movement
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer;

-Kinetic energy

Explanation;

The energy associated with motion or movement is called kinetic energy.

-Kinetic and potential energies are found in all objects. If an object is moving, it is said to have kinetic energy (KE). Potential energy is stored energy and the energy of position; gravitational energy.

-An object that has motion - whether it is vertical or horizontal motion - has kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is calculated by the formula 1/2mv², where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of the object.

-Therefore, kinetic energy depends upon two variables: the mass (m) of the object and the speed (v) of the object.

A biologist analyzes the DNA sequences of one gene in three different primates . The biologist finds that primates A and B have
Nataly_w [17]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:

  • primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.
  • all three primates appeared on Earth at about the same time.
  • either primate A or primate B must be a direct ancestor of primate C.
  • primate C must have been the ancestor of both primate A and primate B.

Answer:

Primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.

Explanation:

In the given question, on the basis of the given information, it can be predicted that the Primate A and B are more closely related to C as the DNA sequences of these two primates are almost similar. The similarity of the sequence suggests that these primates have descended or diverged from a common ancestor.

The DNA sequence of C is different from both A and B which shows that both A and B are different from the C.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

Which fossils provide information as to the mode of formation of an oxygen-rich atmosphere by about 2 billion years ago?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The fossils that provide information on the formation of an oxygen-rich atmosphere are the stromatilites from the Precambrian era. These are layered and columnar fossils consisting mainly of cyanobacteria which were the original life form back then. These bacteria took in carbon dioxide and produced oxygen by photosynthesis as early as 2.5 billion years ago (the earth is about 4.5 billion yrs old).

what are the disc shaped membranous structures inside of the chloroplast where the light-dependent reactions take place
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

These are the thylakoids

Explanation:

The thylakoids which contains the chlorophyll is  the primary site of photosynthesis. It  is covered by layers of cell called the thylakoid membrane.These are the actual site for light dependent reaction.This membrane contains both photosytem I and ii, ATPase enzymes, and Cytochrome b6f complex.While the photosystem i and ii transfer elecrons during photosynthesis, the ATPase enzyme control the catalysis the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP needed for the light independent stage, the Cytochrome  proteins  acts as the ETC. involved in the transfer of electron during light dependent stage.

When thylakoids are packed together in disc shape they are refer to as Grana,(singular -granum).Each  grana are linked together by intergrana.Thus two or more grana are linked by intragrana to form a single photosynthetic functioning unit.The entire structure is bath continuously by the fluid medium-Stroma.

Their stacked and  disc shape is to increase the surface area available to accommodate enough  ETC, needed to transport electron for chemiosmosis needed for photosynthesis.
