A)TRUE...................................
1. Regulation of glucose blood levels is an example of negative feedback mechanism.
Negative feedback mechanism is a control mechanism involved in homeostasis maintain, in this case maintenance of glucose blood levels in normal range.
Negative feedback mechanism contains sensory system that detects the changes, control system that responds to change and activates mechanisms of effector system that reverse the changes in order to restore conditions to their normal levels.
• Pancreatic cells-sensors
• Insulin-control system
• Body cells- effector cells
2. Blood glucose levels change throughout the day because of the food consumption, but in healthy individuals levels of glucose are successfully regulated via the mechanism of hormones such as insulin and glucagon in a process called glucose blood regulation.
This tight regulation of pancreatic hormones is referred to as glucose homeostasis. Insulin lowers blood sugar and glucagon raises it.
3. If the beta cells are destroyed by an autoimmune disease (immune system attacks its own cells), there would be no insulin release, and consequently, the glucose blood levels would be increased.
Diabetes type I is a metabolic disorder caused by the destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells.
Answer:
B. Multipotent cells
Explanation:
Multipotent stem cells are the one that develops from pluripotent stem cells during embryonic development. The multipotent stem cells are the stem cells which have specific functions. These cells develop into specific cell types to replace the older cells.
For example, keratinocytes are the multipotent cells of the skin that produce new skin cells. Spermatogonia are the multipotent cells present in testes so that they can form sperms.
Answer:
The correct answer is - flatworms and roundworms.
Explanation:
Helminths are the group of free living and some are parastic organisms present in aquatic, terrestrial environment or in animals or plants respectively. parasitic helminths are the group of worms or organisms that lives inside the GI tract or other parts of the body of host and makes them weak. The two major groups of parasitic helminths are -
Flatworms (platyhelminths) is a parasitic helminths, have leaf like body which is thin and segmented while roundworms or nematode have cylindrical and unsegmented body.
Thus, the correct answer is - flatworms and roundworms.
