Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The hypothyroidism can be defined as the condition in which the thyroid hormone is not able to produce thyroid hormones.

The thyroid stimulating hormone is produced by the pituitary gland. This hormone functions by regulating the production of the hormones by the thyroid gland.

If there is an unusual amount of the hormones released by the pituitary gland there will be an abnormal amount of the TSH and TRH. The thyroid stimulating hormones cannot respond to the hormone released from the pituitary.

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

On the other hand, the sea anemone gets food from the crab's prey which he hunts.

So there's a benifit for both.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

During exercise your cells need energy to function. in order to do so they harness it through ATP. In order to get ATP the cells convert it to ADP usually through aerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to function and the cells will use up all their oxygen stores for it. Cells will get more oxygen when the exercise has been completed through the pulmonary system delivering oxygenated blood to the cells and taking away the used CO2 rich blood.
