Answer:
The correct answer is option A
Explanation:
Hypoparaghyroidism occurs when thyroid gland produce little parathyroid hormone.
This is caused by:
1. Injury to the parathyroid glands during thyroid and neck surgery.
2. It is also caused by auto immune disorder. This is as a result when the body's natural defence against invading organisms starts to attack perfectly healthy tissues.
3. Congenital defects: This is as a result when infants are born without parathyroid tissue, that is ability to make thyroid glands or when the mother has hypoparathyroidism.
Answer:
Explanation:
The bloodstream carries glucose-a type of sugar produced from the digestion of carbohydrates and other foods-to provide energy to cells throughout the body. Unused glucose is stored mainly in the liver as glycogen.
Insulin , glucagon, and other hormone levels rise and fall to keep blood sugar in a normal range. Too little or too much of these hormones can cause blood sugar levels to fall too low (hypoglycemia) or rise too high (hyperglycemia).
Normally, blood glucose levels increase after you eat a meal. When blood sugar rises, cells in the pancreas release insulin, causing the body to absorb glucose from the blood and lowering the blood sugar level to normal. When blood sugar drops too low, the level of insulin declines and other cells in the pancreas release glucagon, which causes the liver to turn stored glycogen back into glucose and release it into the blood. This brings blood sugar levels back up to normal
The main function is to break down lactose in the body. when you are lactose intolerant (which most adults are to a degree) then tactasr is no longer funtioning properly and lactose isnt being broken down
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
The hyphae stretch into the growth medium and release enzymes (e.g. <u>protease</u>) to break down molecules in the environment and absorb nutrients.
The hyphae of fungi generally strech into the media on which they grow and release enzymes to break down molecules in the media environment and absorb digested substances containing nutrients. The enzyme released depends on the nature of molecules found in the media. Proteolytic (e.g protease), glycolytic, or lipolytic enzymes are released to digest protein, carbohydrate, or lipid respectively.
