Answer:

Glucagon was secreted by his pancreas before he ate the cookies because his blood glucose was low. Insulin was secreted by the pancreas after he ate the cookies because his blood glucose was high.

Explanation:

The two main cells in the islet of Langerhans are called alpha cells and beta cells. The alpha cells secrete a hormone called glucagon and the beta cells secrete insulin. Both are antagonistic hormones.

A rise in blood glucose level stimulates both the synthesis and secretion of insulin. The main functions of insulin are:

- Insulin acts mainly on hepatocytes and adipocytes

- Insulin increases the utilization of glucose in tissues and facilitates the storage of glucose and glycogen in muscles and liver by glycogenesis. By these actions, insulin lowers the blood sugar levels.

- Insulin also increases the synthesis of fat in the adipose tissue from fatty acids as well as glucose.

- it also reduces the break down and oxidation of fat.

- Promotes protein synthesis in tissues from amino acids

Glucagon acts mainly on liver cells and stimulates glycogenolysis resulting in an increased blood sugar.

Thus before having meals (cookies) the blood sugar levels may be low, due to which pancreas secrete glucagon, but after meals the blood sugar level increases thus to bring it down to normal pancreas secrete insulin.

Associations detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity.
Musya8 [376]

Associations that were detected between measures of neighborhood environmental conditions and human microbiome diversity is shown below;

  • There was a regular, positive associations that between diversity and NDVI sd in regards to  mouth microbiome.
  • There was a constant, significant, and a negative associations that was said to exist between percent grassland and that of the diversity of the nose microbiome.

<h3>What are the other result?</h3>

Further result from the study of Amber L. Pearson<em> et al.,</em> (2020) reveal that the outcome for the mouth microbiome, she shows that a little effect of percent trees was seen on diversity and Clay loam soil was said to be negatively and positively associated or linked with rectum microbiome diversity, when liken to loam soil.

The study reveals that  no potential indicator taxon among NDVI quartiles was found and further research is needed.

Alborosie
<span>Some of the things that would make the experiment invalid would be, if there was a variation in the behavior of the class with respect to food - for example, if some people ate their breakfast earlier than the others. This then would mean that some students would have already digested their breakfast during the morning classes and the others would still be digesting. </span>
