The answer is Glycogenolysis

When we are hungry or skipped a meal our  glucagon, <span>an hormones</span> that regulates blood-sugar levels, is released to avoid glucose levels in the blood to decrease to a risky value.

Glucagon makes the liver, but also the muscle, to breakdown accumulated glucose called glycogen into glucose to increase blood-sugar levels. This process is called Glycogenolysis and can also be  stimulated by an increase in epinephrine during  fight-or-flight responses.

Two polypeptides, X and Y, have similar tertiary structures. X normally exists as a monomer while Y exists as a tetramer, Y4. Wh
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Due to number of amino acids.

Explanation:

The main differences might be expected in the amino acid composition of X versus Y because the X polypeptide is made up of one smaller unit of amino acid while on the other hand, Y polypeptide is made up of four smaller units of amino acids. The  name of X is monomer which means composed of one amino acids while Y exists as a tetramer which means it has four amino acids. So we can conclude that the main difference between X and Y is the presence of  number of amino acids.

Answer:

Diatoms

Explanation:

Diatoms are a photosynthetic eukaryotic phytoplankton that virtually found in all waterways, fresh waters and  oceans, and also in most soils on earth. Diatoms play a very important role in the global carbon cycle. Diatoms are single-celled algae that has a characteristics cell wall that is made up of transparent opaline silicia that are elegantly sculpted.

When diatoms die, their shell or skeleton that is composed of silica, do not decay, but settle at the bottom of oceans as sediments to form what is often referred to as diatomaceous earth. It is this diatomaceous earth deposit that is then converted to diatomite powder, which is used as pesticides against insects such as ants, cockroaches, bedbugs and some other pests.
