The endocrine system is made up of a number of glands that secrete hormones. Glands and the hormones they release regulate many processes in the body; from growth, puberty, metabolism and reproduction, hormones play a role in almost everything we do
Answer:
a. M_D_
: 9/16 Black furred individuals
b. M__dd
: 3/16 gray furred individuals (1/16 MMdd + 2/16 Mmdd)
c. mmD_
: 3/16 Brow-furred individuals (1/16 mmDD + 2/16 mmDd)
d. mmdd: 1/16 gray furred individuals.
Explanation:
Available data:
- Dense pigment gene, D, codes for melanophilin.
- D allele dominant over d.
- Gene M/m is responsible for the production of the pigment
- M is dominant over m
- If D is present, M/m is expressed
- If dd is present, M/m is not expressed
- DDMM, DdMM, DDMm, DdMm --->Black fur
- DDmm, Ddmm ---> Brown fur
- ddMM, ddMm -----> Light gray fur

Answer:
. ATP and NADPH, which are formed during the light reactions, are both used in the Calvin cycle. ... Because RuBP would not be regenerated, the Calvin cycle would stop. Explain how a global temperature increase could affect plants.
Explanation:
Answer and Explanation:
In homeostatic control processes any deviation from the norm sets into motion the appropriate corrective mechanisms which restore the norm. This rectification occurs through negative feedback. When you go outside wearing a sweater on a hot day, the body sends messages to the CNS and the following occurs:
- The superficial blood vessels vasodilate so that more blood flows near the surface. This encourages heat loss.
- Sweating and panting. Sweat secreted by the sweat glands evaporate from the surface of the body as it absorbs latent heat.
- The metabolic rate falls so that the body generates less heat. You also become less active
- Behavioural response by seeking cooler areas, cold drinks or removal of the sweater.
