Ans.

Meiosis involves a type of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that results in formation of four daughter cells from a single parent cell, having half of the genetic material as in parent cell. Meiosis is divided into meiosis I and meiosis II.

In gamete forming cells of humans are diploid cells and have 23 pairs of chromosomes (or 46 chromosomes). Each gamete forming mother cell undergoes meiotic division to form haploid daughter cells or gametes, each with 23 chromosomes.

Thus, the correct answer is 'twenty-three' as there are 23 chromosomes present in human sex cells at the end of meiosis II.

If there is too little ACTH produced by the pituitary glad, would levels of cortisol be too high or too low? Explain your answer
Tanzania [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>If there is too little ACTH produced by the pituitary gland the level of cortisol produced would be less. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Addison’s disease is a primary adrenal deficiency and n people with this disease the <em>pituitary gland produces very little adrenocoticotrophic hormone generally called ACTH. </em>

Production of cortisol depends on the levels of ACTH produced by the pituitary. Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland.  <em>Cortisol maintains the blood pressure and regulates the levels of glucose and protein. </em>

When the level of ACTH goes down the level of cortisol also goes down. People with <em>addison’s disease show symptoms like weight loss, abdominal pain etc. </em>

The substance that is predominately absorbed in rain forests would be carbon dioxide, I believe. As many tropical trees are present and will uptake CO2 to synthesize glucose or sugar as a product of photosynthesis.
