Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Her hypothalamus will secrete vasopressin. If her dehydration becomes severe, her secretion of vasopressin will increase.

<h3>What is vasopressin?</h3>
  • The posterior pituitary gland releases the peptide hormone vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone.
  • Which is produced by the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus (neurohypophysis).
  • It primarily functions as an anti-diuretic in the kidney, where it causes the body to reabsorb water by acting on the distal region of the nephron when it is dehydrated.
  • The AVP gene for it is found on human chromosome 20.
  • Vasopressin has an antidiuretic effect; it reduces the volume of urine by raising the collecting tube's water permeability.
  • It attaches to the G protein-coupled V2 receptor, which in turn starts a signaling cascade through the PKA.
  • Aquaporin 2 (a transmembrane pore) is produced as a result, and it is then transported to the apical/urinary membrane.

When NADH is the electron donor to the respiratory chain, 2.5 ATP are formed, but when FADH2 is the electron donor, only 1.5 ATP
Fofino [41]

Answer:NADH donates it electron to complex I a higher energy level than other complexes while FADH donates it electron to complex II a lower energy complex.

Explanation:

Both NADH and FADH are shuttle of high energy electrons originally extracted from food into the inner mitochondrial membrane.

NADH donate it electron to a flavoprotein consisting of FMN prosthetic group and an iron-sulphur protein in ETC complex-I. Two electrons and one hydrogen ion are are transferred from NADH to the flavin prosthetic group of the enzyme.

While the electrons from FADH2 enters the ETC (electron transport chain) at the level of co-enzyme Q (complex II). This step does not librate enough energy to act as a proton pump.

So NADH produces 2.5 ATP during the ETC and oxidative phosphorylation because it donates its electron to Complex I, which pump more electrons across the membrane than other complexes.

Water vapor in the air forms clouds because the air can no longer hold the water vapor as it _____.
pantera1 [17]

The answer is; B

As air cools, its capacity to hold moisture reduces. This is is why as warm humid air cools, it reaches a saturation point, and the water moisture begins to form droplets. These droplets form clouds in the atmosphere.
