A hydrophilic peptide hormone is produced in the anterior pituitary gland located at the base of the brain. The hormone targets

specific cells in many parts of the body.
Which of the following best explains a possible mechanism that would enable the hormone to efficiently reach all of the target cells in the body?

answer choices
The hormone interacts with the nerves at the base of the brain and directs signals to the target cells through the nervous system.

The hormone diffuses into target cells adjacent to the anterior pituitary gland, where the hormone is degraded.

The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be transported to all cells with the correct receptors.

The hormone moves through cytoplasmic connections between cells until it has reached all cells with the correct intracellular binding sites.

Why does dna replication occur inside the cell?
Brilliant_brown [7]
This is because both strands of DNA have complementary bases. The nucleotide sequence of each automatically gives the needed information to produce its partner. This needed information is Genetic/DNA/Parent Cell. Each cell serves as it's own template in order to acquire this.

All these belong to the second line of defense except
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option D, Gastric Juices

Explanation:

The second line of defense is a non specific defense mechanism in which no specific individual is targeted but all invaders are killed in general way. Some common mode of second line of defense are - Phagocytic cells (white blood cells), inflammatory responses, macrophage system etc. The second line of defense comes into action when the invader has surpassed the first line of defense which include either physical barrier like skin, mucous membrane, hair, cilia etc. or chemical barriers like gastric juices, saliva, Hyaluronic acid etc.

Hence, gastric juice does not belong to second line of defense.

Thus, option D is correct.

Suppose that Zonosemata flies whose own wings had been clipped and reattached were attacked more frequently than untreated Zonos
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

(c)-All results for the experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.  

Explanation:

The study researcher shown in the above question noted that flies that underwent wing surgery were more attacked than those that received no wing treatment. However, the researcher does not show the study variables and, consequently, does not show any relationship between the variables and the research result. For this reason, we can state that based on this result, all results for experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.
