The right answer is B.
Insulin is a hormone naturally secreted by the pancreas, specifically by specialized cells located in the islets of Langerhans. It allows glucose (sugar) to pass blood into the cells of the body. These will use glucose as energy or store it for future use.
In healthy subjects, insulin is secreted continuously. The body produces insulin according to the needs and foods consumed. For example, after a meal, the pancreas secretes additional insulin, allowing blood glucose to stay within normal limits.
Answer:
Yet you can turn up the magnification for an even closer look: Cells contain molecules that are made up of even smaller components called atoms. Figure 1: Levels of the body from smallest to largest: Atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems.

A keystone is a organism that helps define the entire ecosystem, and if the species were to disappear from the ecosystem no other species would be able to fill its ecological niche the ecosystem would be forced to radically change allowing new and possibly invasive species to populate the habitat.

Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?
a) Incomplete dominance
b) Genetic recombination
c) Chimerism
d) Codominance
Answer:
d) codominance
Explanation:
Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.
Answer: Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels. or in materials that the consumer does not digest, or through movement
