Answer:
Cushing's syndrome
Explanation:
Prolonged hypersecretion of glucocorticoid hormones by the adrenal gland causes a hormonal imbalance where the person begins to accumulate fat and lose bone and muscle mass.
Remember, one of the most important glucocorticoid hormone is cortisol, also known as the stress hormone, it usually helps us respond to conditions that are difficult for our body and where we need to use our strength and mental dexterity, when this hormone is elevate, we can respond to stress situations more easily. It helps us activate all the metabolism, as a result, we need to use more energy.
If cortisol remains elevated all day, despite not making physical and mental strength, our body will think it needs to eat, so people with this syndrome are always hungry, and accumulate fat. Thus leading to the appearance of the symptoms of the syndrome.
Answer:
TEMs can magnify objects up to 2 million times
Explanation:
Answer:
Structurally, plant and animal cells are very similar because they are both eukaryotic cells. They both contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes. Both also contain similar membranes, cytosol, and cytoskeletal elements.

Answer:
Explanation:
Amphibians are group of animals that live a double life; one in water with gills and the other on land with lungs (at maturity). They include frogs, newts, salamanders etc.
Reptiles ( meaning to creep under shadow of darkness) are group of animals that possess scales. They include snakes, crocodiles, lizards etc.
Reptiles and amphibians are distantly related but share some traits including:
1. They are both poikilothermic (cold-blooded) animals i.e. their body temperature is dependent on that of the environment's.
2. They both lay eggs externally, although that of amphibians is fertilized after being layed
3. They both possess lungs for gaseous exchange, although, amphibians use gills in water.
4. Both reptiles and amphibians belongs to Chordata i.e. they both possess a vertebrae column (backbone)
5. Most reptiles and amphibians make use of the same defensive and attacking traits as a pretty and predator respectively. They employ camouflage, biting and inflating of their body size.
Answer:
In a scenario in which I have to synthesize a cell and decide why I have to pick one from Prokaryotic or eukaryotic because of their differences in the speed of the process. The characteristics that make it faster in prokaryotic cells are:
The primary transcript in prokaryotes does not undero further processing, so transation can begin immediatly.
Multiple proteins can be synthetized from a single polycistronic MRNA molecule.
Prokaryotes lack a nuclear envelope, so translation can begin on mRNA even before transcription of the mRNA is complete.
Explanation:
The nature of Prokaryotes makes them undergo the synthesizing process quicker than Eukaryotes because they don't require a preliminary process to start it as Eukaryotes have to undergo one. This is because their composition, Eukaryotes are cells without many organelles like mitochondria or even nucleus. this is also the reason for eukaryotes to be slower in the process of synthesizing mRNA because they don't have organelles to process it faster. Finally, because they don't have a nucleus to help them assimilate the mRNA.
