Answer: Ethylene.

Ethylene is also an important natural plant hormone, and is used in agriculture to force the ripening of fruits, and also is naturally occurring (but not in such high amounts such as the ones you see on store shelves -- these are forced to ripen quickly compared to naturally occurring levels (which has low levels of ethylene at a time in comparison of forced ripening which has increased levels of ethylene at once).
Ethylene it is what causes a maturing apple to go red, and then that red apple starts to wither, get squishy/ soft, and then it starts to rot.

pantera1 [17]

Options are not provided in the question. The complete question is as following:

The reabsorption of glucose occurs primarily through the walls of the

A. glomerular capsule.

B. nephron loop.

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

D. distal convoluted tubule.

E. renal duct.

Answer:

C. proximal convoluted tubule.

Explanation:

Reabposrtion of glucose is supported by the nephron present in the kidney which mainatain body fluid homeostasis. It maintains extracellular body fluid volume stable  and also maintains the minerals and salts which are essential for body functioning. So, glucose reabsorption is a part of homeostasis.

The process of glucose reabsorption primarily starts through the walls of the  proximal convoluted tubule. proximal convoluted tubule are covered in microvillii and are extensive in length which increases the surface area for absorption. it also contain densly packed mitochndria which provide energy for efficient reabsorption. and then they are tranposrted to proximal straight tuble fo rfurther filteration.

Hence, the correct otpion is C.

vekshin1

Answer:

a. bottleneck effect.

Explanation:

A bottleneck effect occurs when some adverse environmental conditions such as typhoons and famine reduce the population size considerably. The allele frequencies of the population are changed. As the population grows again, the gene pool has different allele frequencies than the original population. During population growth, some harmful alleles may become more abundant resulting in a rare disease such as achromatopsia. Therefore, the given population represents the bottleneck effect.

Which type of cell stays dormant, waiting to differentiate in adults to replace damaged cells? A. Totipotent B. Multipotent C. P
love history [14]

Answer:

B. Multipotent cells

Explanation:

Multipotent stem cells are the one that develops from pluripotent stem cells during embryonic development. The multipotent stem cells are the stem cells which have specific functions. These cells develop into specific cell types to replace the older cells.

For example, keratinocytes are the multipotent cells of the skin that produce new skin cells. Spermatogonia are the multipotent cells present in testes so that they can form sperms.
