What is an example of a neuroendocrine gland?

Biology

Mama L [17]3 years ago

An example of a neuroendocrine cell is a cell of the adrenal medulla (innermost part of the adrenal gland), which releases adrenaline to the blood. 

Neuroendocrine cells are cells that receive neuronal input (neurotransmitters released by nerve cells or neurosecretory cells) and, as a consequence of this input, release message molecules (hormones) into the blood. In this way they bring about an integration between the nervous system and the endocrine system, a process known as neuroendocrine integration.

Each ATP molecule contains about 1% of the amount of chemical energy available from the complete oxidation of a single glucose m
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

b. It is converted to heat.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process of energy transformation. During this process,  the chemical energy present in the chemical bonds of glucose molecules is first stored in the form of NADH and FAD2. Then the same is used to drive the process of ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation.  Each process of energy transformation loses some of the energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The lost energy can not perform any function. Therefore, part of the energy of glucose is also lost in the form of heat as the process of cellular respiration follows the laws of thermodynamics.

Proto‑oncogenes are genes that have the potential to become oncogenes through either mutation or an increase in expression. Clas
algol [13]

Answer:

<u>Proto-oncogenes</u>

  • These genes code for protein that normally promote cell division
  • Mutations that increase activity of these genes may lead to cancer

<u>Tumor suppressor genes</u>

  • These genes code for protein that normally prevent uncontrolled cell division
  • Some products of these genes normally function in repairing damaged DNA
  • Mutation that decrease activity of these genes may lead to cancer.

Explanation:

<em>Proto-oncogenes</em> are group of genes that ordinarily help cells develop. At the point when a proto-oncogene mutates or there are such a large number of duplicates of it, it turns into a "terrible" quality that can turn out to be forever turned on or activated when it shouldn't be. At the point when this occurs, the cell becomes wild, which can prompt malignant growth. This terrible quality is called an oncogene.

Tumor suppressor genes are normal gene that hinder cell division, fix DNA missteps, or tell cell when to undergo apoptosis (die). At the point when tumor suppressor gene don't work appropriately or inactivated, cells can develop uncontrollable growth, that ultimately lead to cancer.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The correct option is trial and error learned behavior

Explanation:

A trial and error learned behavior is a type of behavior in which an organism attempts to or tries something new which makes it (the organism) accept the reality of that thing or situation. This means that if the attempt is successful or pleasurable, the organism will attempt it again and if it's not, the organism will avoid that thing.

This is what was described in the question with the bird trying to eat the caterpillar but found it unpleasurable which made it to start avoiding it afterwards.
