Answer:

2.7 billion

Explanation:

This period is referred to as the Great Oxygenation Event. This period saw the evolution of photosynthetic organisms (cyanobacteria) that utilized carbon dioxide (that dominated the atmosphere then) and sunlight to manufacture their energy molecules-glucose. Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a byproduct that is evolved into the atmosphere. As these photosynthetic organisms proliferated on earth, the atmosphere composition changed to become partly dominated by oxygen (which is an oxidaton agent) with less and less carbon dioxide.

Which of the following can contribute to infertility in a young male body builder taking anabolic steroids?
guapka [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. suppression of LH release from the pituitary.

Explanation:

Anabolic steroids are synthetic steroids made up of mainly androgenic hormone like testosterone. These anabolic steroids are usually taken by young male bodybuilders because it helps in gaining muscles.

These anabolic steroids have many side effects and infertility in males is one of its side effects. Excessive use of these steroids stops the secretion of gonadotropic hormones such as LH in males from pituitary glands by inducing negative feedback to the pituitary.

LH is important in the production of testosterone from Leydig cells and testosterone is important for sperm production. Therefore if LH is stopped no sperm production will occur and it leads to infertility in males.
