Many scientists support the phenomenon of "obeseogens", industrial pollutants and chemicals found in plastics, food packaging, p

esticides, and cosmetics, that contribute to obesity by promoting adipogenesis (increase in number of fat cells) in various organs. This would increase the overall incidence of cancer, because dysfunctional adipose tissue:
a. down-regulates anti-inflammatory molecules such as adiponectin
b. mimics a low grade chronic inflammatory state with pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic signaling
c. up-regulates molecules associated with invasion and metastasis such as PAi-1.
d. mimics a hypoxic state, with upregulation of growth factor and growth factor receptor expression that promote angiogenesis and extracellular matrix remodelling
e. all of the above

What are hyphae made of
postnew [5]
Structure. A hypha consists of one or more cells surrounded by a tubular cell wall. In most fungi, hyphae are divided into cells by internal cross-walls called "septa" (singular septum). Septa are usually perforated by pores large enough for ribosomes, mitochondria and sometimes nuclei to flow between cells.

5. List three mechanisms by which Earth's albedo can be increased.
KIM [24]

Explanation:

1. A decrease in the number of greenhouse gases that humans produce will result in lowered global temperatures. This will allow the ice sheets in the polar regions to increase increasing also albedo.

2. Using light-colored building materials on houses and pavement in urban centers will work towards increasing albedo as more sunlight is refelcted back by built environments.

3. Decreased deforestation/increase in aforestation increases the earth’s sirface albedo because vegetation reflects back more sunlight than the earth’s bare surface.

A good model of the cell membrane would be
mixer [17]

Explanation;

A cell membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.

A cell membrane hold the different components of the cell together and to protect it from the environment outside the cell. It acts as a boundary between the inside environment and the outside environment of a cell.

It regulates the materials that enters and exits the cell; through selective movement of substances in and out of the cell.
