Answer:

option B: Polygenic inheritance

Explanation:

Polygenic inheritance in genetics and plant breeding can be defined as a type of inheritance whereby  one or a single trait or  characteristics(color)  is controlled by multiple genes (two or more genes). it is a continuous variation that depicts a normal distribution curve

the phenotype of a plant or an animal increases if when there is an increase in the number of genes controlling a particular trait or characteristics. polygenic inheritance are non-Mendelian form of inheritance in  nature and a  single trait expressed is as a result of the interaction of many or multiple genes that are quantitative genes in nature. examples are weight, skin color, height, e.t.c

Which would not be found in pancreatic juice secreted into the duodenum?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The answer is insulin.

Explanation:

Pancreatic juice is an enzyme containing secretion produced by the pancreas into the small intestine. Enzymes in the pancreas help in digesting proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The constituent enzymes are as follows:

  1. Trypsinogen and Chymotrypsinogen: Precursors of the proteases, trypsin and chymotrypsin that digest proteins. They are released as precursors to protect the intestinal lining. Enterokinase, an enzyme secreted by small intestine's epithelial cells, activates these precursor.
  2. Lipase: Enzyme that digests lipids by hydrolysing triglycerides into 2-monoglyceride and two free fatty acids.
  3. Amylase that helps in digesting any left over carbohydrates and complex starch.

Insulin:

Insulin can never be part of pancreatic juice because it is a hormone, not an enzyme. Hormones are chemical messengers secreted only in blood. Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas to lower blood glucose levels by binding to insulin receptors on cells and stimulating the intake of glucose through glucose transport channels (GLUTs) in the cell membrane.
