The term Doping is essentially what athletes on Erythropoietin or EPO commonly known as use. It increases the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. Erythropoietin is usually produced by the kidneys when oxygen in the blood gets to low levels.


The prime regulator of red cell production is erythropoietin and its major functions are to:

- Promote the development of red blood cells.

- Initiate the synthesis of hemoglobin, the molecule within red blood cells that transports oxygen.

Hope this helps you out.

... termed "hypotonic," meaning less solids (or more diluted) than inside the cell. For fluid movement in/out of cells, water will diffuse (via osmosis) from the hypotonic solution to the hypertonic one, assuming a permeable barrier (i.e. cell membrane) allows it. With this case, water will flow into the cell from outside.

After completing meiosis II, human sex cells have a total of _____ chromosomes
vodomira [7]

Ans.

Meiosis involves a type of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that results in formation of four daughter cells from a single parent cell, having half of the genetic material as in parent cell. Meiosis is divided into meiosis I and meiosis II.

In gamete forming cells of humans are diploid cells and have 23 pairs of chromosomes (or 46 chromosomes). Each gamete forming mother cell undergoes meiotic division to form haploid daughter cells or gametes, each with 23 chromosomes.

Thus, the correct answer is 'twenty-three' as there are 23 chromosomes present in human sex cells at the end of meiosis II.
