"what evidence exists that some of the asteroids were geologically active in the distant past"

Biology
1 answer:
velikii [3]4 years ago
4 0

The geological activity of a celestial body like a planet, satellite or asteroid can be determined by looking at the surface features like the presence of a valley like terrain or plains or basins created by the lava flow. The presence of heavy elements like uranium, lead, iron and gold on the surface also indicate that the body once spewed out lava since these are found within the internal core of the body. Ceres, an asteroid has these elements present on its surface which hints at the presence of an active geological process in the past.

How might a single hormone have drastically different effects in
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The correct answer is "There are several mechanisms that explain why a hormone have different effects in different cells. These mechanisms include: multiple receptors for the same hormone, a single receptor coupled to different pathways and hormones interacting with receptors for other molecules".

Explanation:

Hormones are among the most versatile molecules of the body, responsible for different biological processes such as human growth, sex development and metabolisms. Hormones are responsible of these complex biological processes because they have drastically different effects in different cells. There are several mechanisms that explain why a hormone have different effects in different cells. These mechanisms include:

- Multiple receptors for the same hormone. For instance, there are multiple receptor for dopamine, a hormone and neurotransmitter responsible for different functions such as movement, memory, sleep and motivation.

- A single receptor coupled to different pathways. Most hormone receptors act with a cascade of signaling. This in consequence results in a single receptor interacting with different molecules having multiple effects.

- Hormones interacting with receptors for other molecules. One example is the action of one metabolite of progesterone named allopregnanolone. This metabolite interacts with GABA-A receptor, which gives it anxiolitic properties.

Ryan hears a loud noise and quickly turns his eyes sideways in the direction of the sound. To accomplish this action he must use
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is lateral rectus muscles.

Explanation:

To see what is happening in his side, or what originated the loud noise, Ryan has to use his lateral rectus muscle. Lateral rectus is one of the five extra ocular muscles that help in movement of the eye balls and help to see what is happening in and around us. It is mostly responsible for abduction, i.e. the movement of the eye balls away from the center line of the body. Defect in this muscle can result in sixth nerve palsy.
