The process of elimination of nitrogenous waste from the body
scZoUnD [109]

Excretion

Hormones play an important role in regulating blood glucose levels. what is an example of this?
Ber [7]
The human body wants blood glucose (blood sugar) maintained in a very narrow range. Insulin and glucagon are the hormones which make this happen. Both insulin and glucagon are secreted from the pancreas, and thus are referred to as pancreatic endocrine hormones. The picture on the left shows the intimate relationship both insulin and glucagon have to each other. Note that the pancreas serves as the central player in this scheme.  It is the production of insulin and glucagon by the pancreas which ultimately determines if a patient has diabetes, hypoglycemia, or some other sugar problem.(i hope this can help you) :)

I just need a bit of help answering this one. (:

If we take the wolf as a species, then we can easily find its place and evolutionary path through this cladogram of chordates. The wolf is a vertebrate, so we start from vertebrae. It is an animal that has jaws and paired appendages. Continuing further up the cladogram we reach the development of lungs, and the wolfs have lungs for breathing. Then we come to the development of four limbs, and the wolfs have four limbs. Next comes the endothermy, meaning that the animal is able to regulate its own body temperature, thus it is warmblooded, and the wolfs are warmblooded animals. As last we come to the mammals, and the wolfs are part of the mammals, so we can classify them in that branch of the chordate cladogram.
