Answer:

A) Prolactin

Explanation:

It is prolactin (PRL) hormone which is responsible for milk production from the mammary glands of females just after they have given birth. Prolactin hormone is a peptide hormone which is secreted from the anterior lobe of pituitary gland situated just below our brain. The secretion of prolactin hormone is strictly under the control of endocrine neurons present in hypothalamus. Apart from milk production, prolactin plays important role in metabolism. It also regulates immune system & causes pancreatic development.

Answer:

The correct answer is a. anaerobic metabolism.

Explanation:

Anaerobic metabolism refers to a high intensity of exercise in which the absence of oxygen limits performance due to the accumulation of metabolites and the corresponding metabolic and physiological dysregulation.Predominantly anaerobic exercises are characterized by: high intensity and short duration, energy is obtained from immediate sources such as muscle ATP, phosphocreatine (PC) and glucose and does not need oxygen for this. For very explosive or high intensity movements it is necessary to obtain a powerful and fast energy, this is obtained by anaerobic systems. The anaerobic metabolism is able to respond immediately to the energy demands of physical exercise and can provide energy for very high intensity exercises (strength and / or power). But this system has a limited capacity, it is short-lived, so if the exercise continues, either you have to stop due to fatigue or reduce its intensity (the power developed) to a level where energy can be obtained through the aerobic metabolism.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Algae

Explanation:

Algae is the best possible answer because the process of photosynthesis can be carried out only by plants, algae and cyanobacteria.  Hence, option A is correct. These organisms are called autotrophs as they are capable of making their own food.

Other organisms like paramecium, arthropods and fungi are not capable of photosynthesis. These organisms like arthropods are called heterotrophs. They do not make their own food and feed on other organisms for food.
