Under which conditions do most types of cells function at optimal levels

Biology
1 answer:
Scrat [10]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Cells maintain a constant internal environment; this process called homeostasis, ensures that cells obtain an optimal environment in which they can best function.

The endocrine system involves chemical signalling via the secretion of molecules called hormones into extracellular fluid. They bind to chemical receptors in order to cause specific changes in target cells, these lead to changes in the body's internal environment called homeostasis.

It includes the thyroid, parathyroid, pituitary, pineal and adrenal glands along with other regions. The bone, adipose tissue, heart, pancreas and liver are a few of the regions of the body which show endocrine function. The brain, or control center functions to receive and process the information from the receptor. Effectors receive the control center's command and illicits a response in the form of a feedback loop, that may oppose or enhance the stimulus.

Further Explanation:

During homeostasis the body maintains a constant internal balance in pH, temperature, blood pressure etc. Cells in a multicellular organism become specialized for particular tasks and communicate with one another in order to maintain homeostasis. Within the human body these are known as hormone cascades, where several complex steps occur- the tissues signal to one another with the use of hormones released by the endocrine system. The regulation (increase and decrease) of these secretions is achieved by negative feedback loops, where the release of certain substances during a cascade in turn halts the secretion of hormones at earlier stages.

For example, cells within the human body function at an optimal temperature between 97°F (36.1°C)  and 99°F (37.2°C). This is due to the optimal temperature requirement of the enzymes within the human body, which requires this specific range to obtain activation energy.

Flowers are a collection of _____ tissue produced by some plants.
Lostsunrise [7]
There are choices for this question namely:

1. Sterile
2. Reproductive
3. Both
4. Neither

The correct answer is that flowers are a collection of reproductive tissue produced by flowering plants (angiosperms). The flower is a reproductive organ of the plant. It is composed of the male organ (stamen) which produces the pollen and the female organ (ovary) which receives the pollen. Once the ovary receives the pollen either from the same plant or from another through pollination, the ovule (part of the ovary) will then become the seed and the ovary will become the fruit. The seed is the "embryo" of the plant wherein if planted, it will grow to a new plant.

What evidence has allowed scientists to conclude that the common ancestor of modern chimps and humans lived around 7 million yea
tatyana61 [14]

Biological molecules such as proteins and DNA reveal differences between humans and chimps that would have taken around 7 million years to accumulate.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

All known animals and viruses have genetic information in the form of deoxyribonucleic acid, a polymer consisting of two polynucleotide chains that coil around one another to form a double helix. Ribonucleic acid is a type of nucleic acid, as is DNA.

The two DNA strands are known as polynucleotides because they are constructed from simpler monomeric units called nucleotides.

The four nucleobases that contain nitrogen—cytosine (C), guanine (G), adenine (A), or thymine (T)—along with deoxyribose and a phosphate group—make up each nucleotide. The sugar of one nucleotide and the phosphate of the following make covalent bonds, creating what is known as the phospho-diester linkage, which results in an alternating sugar-phosphate backbone.
