Answer:
D
Explanation:
The neuroendocrine system is made up of the cell in the body that ‘sit’ between the nervous system and the endocrine system. These cells are like the pituitary gland, islets cells of the pancreas, thyroids, and etcetera. They receive nerve impulses from nerves connected to them. The impulse then triggers them to release respective hormones into the blood.
for instance in humans, the somatic cells include 46 chromosomes which is the diploid wide variety (2n) and each sperm and egg has 23 chromosomes wherein one of them is the sex chromosome.
Ribosomes are where protein synthesis occurs.

<span>As humans change the way we live on the planet, the way that nitrogen moves around the Earth also changes. Nitrogen atoms may seem small enough to be easily overlooked. We look right through the ones in the air, do we not? Yet recent changes in the nitrogen cycle are causing a very noticeable effect on natural environments and human health. Lakes are clogged with aquatic weeds. Dead zones have formed in areas of the oceans where animals can not survive. Air pollutants that contain nitrogen are decreasing air quality and greenhouse gases that contain nitrogen are becoming more common.</span>
Q1:
Answer:
Studies have reported that due to predation of pythons on rabbits, the population of other predators is badly affected.
Bobcats are a natural predator of rabbits thus they come in a competition with pythons for food. As pythons are more powerful so they target rabbits more easily than Bobcats. The population of Bobcats has been declined by 90% or more due to the establishment of pythons in the Everglades.
<em>Alligator mississippiensis </em>or American alligators are also abundant in Everglades and just like Bobcats they compete with pythons for their food. They can even kill pythons if pythons are smaller in size than them, but python will kill alligator if he is of smaller size. Although rabbits are food for both alligator and Python but Alligator is a key stone specie and it has very important ecological role, because it digs holes in land that retain water upon rainfall. These water hole provide water in the extreme dry weather and help in survival of other small specie like insects and birds.
So, we can expect the population of Alligator, Bob cats and other small insects and birds to decline rapidly if Python population kept on increasing with same speed.

Q2:
Answer:
There is no doubt that Pythons pose serious threat for both humans as well as survival of other organisms like Alligators and birds. However, I donot think that “Python challenge” is a reasonable way to kill or remove Pythons. Because It can threat the lives of many individuals who take part in competition, although they are trained but still they are nor professionals and get training of only few weeks so it is not safe competition.
There should be some strategy of introducing natural predators like Brown beers, Cougars and Alligators which can kill python naturally without staking the life of humans at risk.
Hope it helps!
