Answer:
Lipid insoluble hormones/Peptide hormones
Explanation:
Hormones produce their effect by binding to speific receptor. These receptors may be intracellular or membranal.
Membrane receptors;
The lipid insoluble hormones cannot cross the plasma membrane thus their receptors are found on plasma membrane. These are usually peptide hormones.
Examples; Insulin.
Intracellular receptors;
The lipid soluble hormones can cross the plasma membrane thus their receptors are found in cytoplasm. These are usually steroidal hormones.
Example; Testosterone.
Answer: c. Is spontaneous generation a valid explanation for maggots in meats?
Explanation:
The hawk, a carnivore (animal meat-eater), is predating on the rabbit, an herbivore (plant-eater). So the hawk can be seen as the predator and the rabbit as the prey.
But another type of relationship important in Ecology is consumers. So producers are the plants that feed a food web. That makes the rabbits the primary consumers (herbivores) of these plants. Then the hawks become the secondary consumers (carnivores) of the primary consumers, by eating the herbivores.
Hope that this makes sense!
Answer:
The % of children with webbed digits is
%
Explanation:
Given -
Syndactyly or webbed digits are due to the presence of a dominant allele (S). Then the allele for normal digits would be represented by allele "s"
A normal man with normal digits and genotype "ss" marries a woman with webbed digits and has a hetrozygous genotype i.e "Ss"
If we cross Ss and ss , then the following offspring are produced -
Ss * ss
Ss, Ss, ss, ss
Out of four 2 offspring with genotype ss have normal digits and remaining two offspring with genotype "Ss" have webbed digits. Thus, the % of children with webbed digits is
%
The activity of some enzymes requires vitamins. This is because vitamin derivatives contribute to the biochemical mechanisms of these enzymes. These vitamin derivatives belong to a class of molecules known as cofactors, which are organic molecules (called coenzymes) or metallic ions, that assist in the catalytic activity of an enzyme.
