Answer: B) balance between all of the body’s systems.

Explanation: Homeostasis is the regulation or maintenance of a stable internal environment of the body. In achieving homeostasis, all the organs and systems of the body must function harmoniously to maintain a balance.

If balance is not maintained by the organs and systems of the body, a disease or disorder may arise.

Example of homeostasis is the secretion of insulin by the pancreas following a meal to regulate the blood glucose concentration.

I need help, I don't understand this, so please try to explain?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Yeah, so basically the image is showing restriction enzymes. The job of restriction enzymes is mainly involved in research when scientists use them for cloning human genes. But that's besides the point...

Main thing you have to understand is that restriction enzymes cut at very specific places along DNA sequences. If you look at the restriction enzyme Rsa 1, you can notice that it cuts only between a thymine nucleotide base and an adenine nucleotide base. Next, if ya look at Sty 1 (be careful b/c W can represent adenine or thymine), it cuts only between two directly adjacent cytosine nucleotide bases!

SO.... if we go to Rsa 1, we can find the answers by dividing up the sequences between the pattern we saw in the gray box. It only cuts between adenine and thymine bases. Based on that, we can find the number of fragments created, and the segment lengths (basically just like how many nucleotide bases are in each strand). Hope ya found this helpful!
