It's more accurate, especially since heart rate is almost universally measures in beats-per-minute, than, say, timing your pulse for a [factor of 60] seconds (30 seconds, 20 seconds, 15 seconds, 12 seconds, etc.).

Answer: The advantage of timing your pulse for a full minute is you get your pulse exactly beats per minutes vs an estimate.

Explanation:

Normally pulse rate is calculated for 15 seconds and then multiplied by 4. But this case may lead to inaccuracy, as the pulse rate may vary over the time period of one minute. therefore, it is best to find the number of beats per minute instead of 15 seconds.

mel-nik [20]

When cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase is inhibited in a muscle that is stimulated by epinephrine,there will be a crucial effect of making the phosphorylase kinase to remain active,this active state of the phosphorylase kinase is because the associated protein kinase A will not be deactivated any longer.

Epinephrine signaling pathway has varying steps,but the preceding step occurs when the associating hormone binds to the receptor of the epinephrine in the cell surface,the receptor then changes shape when the hormone triggers it,this makes the receptor to move to it's active form. GDP( guanosine diphosphate) is released after the G protein ( guanine nucleotide-binding proteins) binds to the receptor that is activated,the G protein then takes up a molecule of GTP (guanosine triphosphate) .

Answer:

A: Exogenous insulin injections

Explanation:

Insulin injections are used by people who suffer from diabetes. This condition is the result of the liver not producing enough/any insulin. Insulin regulated the release or storage of glucose, as the body needs it.

If there is not enough insulin, there will be too much glucose in the bloodstream, which can be extremely unhealthy.

Polyphagia is a condition where the person feels a sudden rise in appetite. This can be caused by a reduction in blood-glucose levels, as a result of the insulin.
