Im going to use a cactus as an example. A cactus is a plant that lives in hot, dry climates, which has needle like leaves to protect itself from animals searching for water. It has a thick waxy curticle to make it hard for an animal's teeth to pierce the plant and to help keep the water in the plant (the heat makes it easier for the plants water to be used up at a quicker pace).

What is the concept that organisms can only come from other organism called
STatiana [176]

The concept that organisms can only come from other organisms is called biogenesis.

The concept of biogenesis has to do with the belief that organisms cannot just arise spontaneously from non-living objects or sources, but can only arise from another living organism through the process of reproduction.

Biogenesis is as opposed to abiogenesis. The latter is a concept that opines that organisms can arise spontaneously from non-living sources without any reproduction.

The right answer is: Leptin .

Leptin is a hormone closely linked to the regulation of energy consumption and expenditure: appetite, metabolism, and hunger.

A hormone is a protein with a messenger function. This means that once released into the bloodstream, she goes to another part of the body to transmit a message to specific receptors.

Leptin is manufactured in white adipocytes (adipose tissue) where triglycerides (fats) are stored and acts on the hypothalamus.
