How much percent of biodiversity on land will be lost if all rain forests are destroyed?

1 answer:

4 0

Forests is a major part of the biodiversity, forests cover about 6% of the planet, but they harbor up to 90% of the world's terrestrial biodiversity. This biodiversity is irreplaceable, and also has important economic uses. However, forests continue to disappear at an alarming rate. I therefore believe if all rain forests are destroyed then it means about 90% of terrestrial biodiversity will be destroyed.

Three months after fertilization and development of a placenta around the developing fetus, the corpus luteum regresses and form

Serjik [45]

Three months after fertilization and development of a placenta around the developing fetus, the corpus luteum regresses and forms the corpus albicans. Formed placenta takes over progesterone production (which was the role of corpus luteum) and the corpus luteum degrades into a corpus albicans. The corpus luteum is being broken down by macrophages, in a process called luteolysis. The remains of the corpus albicans may persist as a scar on the ovary.

Hormones or paracrines that inhibit gastric secretion include ________.

const2013 [10]

The correct answer is: D) secretin

Gastric secretion is highly regulated whether its secretion should be increased (when food is eaten) or decresed (as the stomach empties). Secretion is controlled by the nervous system and endocrine system that work together. There are three phases of gastric secretory control:

Cephalic-by the brain

Gastric-by the stomach itself

Intestinal- by the small intestine

All of three can work simultaneously.

Secretin is released by duodenal enteroendocrine cells and it stimulates the pancreas and gall bladder, but also suppresss gastric secretion and motility. Secretion of the secretin is stimulated by the chime and it is the part of intestinal phase.
