The human body organ known as the pancreas secretes the hormones insulin and glucagon. These hormones regulate the level of gluc

ose in the bloodstream. If the level of glucose is too low, the pancreas secretes glucagon which causes the glucose level to increase; if the glucose level is too high, the hormone insulin will lower the glucose level.
What name is given to this type of regulatory system?

Answer:

Homeostasis

Explanation:

Homeostasis indicates the body's property of remaining in balance even when radical changes occur in the external environment. Homeostasis is a regulatory system of the body, it is responsible for keeping our body in constant balance. An example of homeostasis can be seen in the question above, where it shows that when the glucose level is too low, the pancreas secretes glucagon, which causes the glucose level to rise; If the glucose level is too high, the insulin hormone will lower the glucose level.

Homeostasis is guaranteed by physiological processes that occur in a coordinated manner in the body. Among the main mechanisms of homeostatic control, we can mention those that control body temperature, pH, body fluid volume, blood pressure, heartbeat, blood element concentrations, hormone release and so on.

In a carbon dioxide molecule (O=C=O), which statement is true of the electrons?
Svetllana [295]

Answer: Option A.

The electrons are being shared between the carbon and oxygen atoms.

Explanation:The electrons are being shared between the carbon and oxygen atoms because each oxygen share four electrons with the central carbon, therefore carbon atoms have 8 electrons that is shared with oxygen. The oxygen have two shared pairs in double bond and two lone pairs in non bonding. Carbon and oxygen form covalent bond. This satisfies the octet rule because the electrons are shared in both oxygen and carbon octet.

In an area in Africa, temporary pools form where rivers flow during the rainy months. Some fish have developed the ability to us
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The preferable option will be - 1.

1. The fish using ventral fins as "feet" will be present in increasing numbers.

Explanation:

After many years, the fish who are using ventral fins as "feet" will be present in increasing numbers because -

We know that

  • These pools are temporary pools made up of rainwater. These pools do not last for longer times.
  • Some fish have developed their ability to use their ventral fin as feet and can travel from one temporary pool to others.
  • So, after many years, more and more fish will develop that ability to survive.
  • As we all know about "the survival of the fittest" theory so some of them won't be able to make it.
  • To develop their ventral fin as their real feet will take thousands of years and some genetic modification. So, that won't happen in many years.

Are the nuclei in the daughter cells identical to the parent nucleus in mitosis? Why or why not?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Yes, because each daughter cell contains replicated genetic material, which are exact copy of one another.

Explanation:

Mitosis is a kind of cell division that results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. Prior to the mitotic process, the cell undergoes DNA replication in the Interphase stage. DNA replication produces a replicated copy of the genetic material (DNA) to form two copies of each chromosome in the nucleus.

This replication gives rise to two copies of the DNA borne on replicated chromosomes called SISTER CHROMATIDS. During Anaphase stage of Mitosis, the sister chromatids separate into opposite poles and eventually into two cells after CYTOKINESIS (cytoplasmic division).

Each daughter cell now contains a nuclei that contains exact copies of genetic material without any form of recombination. Hence, each daughter cell is said to be genetically identical to the parent cell.
