Answer:

D. All scientists will be using one name for mountain lions.

Explanation:

Different names are given to the same animals around the world which is difficult for the scientist or people to memorize every name. So for that reason scientist chose a taxonomic system in which a scientific name was given to every specie that are living on earth. Scientists used a specific language for naming of different organisms i. e. Latin or Greek language.

The relatively long half-life of lipid soluble hormones (steroid hormones) compared to water soluble hormones is due in part to
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The transport protein-hormone complexes of lipid soluble proteins can not cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are water-insoluble (hydrophobic) in nature. Since blood has watery medium, the plasma, the lipid-soluble hormones travel in blood through transport proteins. The transport protein-hormone complexes are too large to cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus. The impermeability of the filtration membrane of glomerulus for protein-hormone complexes increases the half-life of lipid-soluble proteins.
