<span>This might disrupt the ability of a neuron to fire and action potential. If the influx of positive ions is blocked the neuron will not reach the necessary threshold required to fire an action potential. Since an action potential only fires when the neuron reaches the correct voltage threshold even a small increase in the number of positive ions entering the neuron might block it from firing an action potential.</span>
The correct answer is bpa in bottles affects particular glands.
An endocrine disruptor is a chemical which at certain doses can disrupt the normal endocrine function of the organism. The effects of an endocrine disruptor can be quite severe, from birth deficits and cancerous tumours to developmental disorders.
One of the most commonly detected chemicals in the human body is bisphenol A (BPA), a material used in the production of plastics. It is considered an exoestrogen, meaning that it possesses hormone- and estrogen-like properties. These properties affect specific glands of the human body causing reproductive and neurological problems, obesity, diabetes and some types of cancer.
Feedback from estrogen is a mechanism that the human body uses to control the FSH release from the gonads. This is not considered an endocrine disruptor since it is a natural mechanism. In addition, iodine is a chemical element essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Any lack of it is not considered an endocrine disruptor. Finally, calcitonin is a hormone produced in humans by specific cells of the thyroid gland and it is not considered an endocrine disruptor.
The pair that incorrectly matches polymer-monomer is lipids-monosaccharides (option C).
<h3>What is a monomer?</h3>
A monomer is a small molecule which can be covalently bonded to other monomers to form a polymer.
A polymer, on the other hand, is a large molecule made up of a chain of many monomeric units, formed by chemically bonding together.
The following are the monomer-polymer combination we have in nature;
- Carbohydrates - simple sugar/monosaccharide
- Protein - amino acid
- Lipids - fatty acid
- Nucleic acid - nucleotide
Therefore, the pair that incorrectly matches polymer-monomer is lipids-monosaccharides.
