Answer:

1. The pituitary gland is collected from a recently-killed fish - donor through the removal of the dorsal side of the skull.

2. The pituitary glands are preserved in alcohol or nitrogen (freezing method).

3. The pituitary gland is prepared by locating it in distilled water or a saline solution

4. Intramuscular administration via injection.

5. Fish are released inside a breeding tank.

Explanation:

Hyphosysation is a technique that is used to induce reproduction in fish when they are unable to spawn because conditions are not optimal. During this process, fish are injected with substances that are released from the pituitary gland, leading to the acceleration of spawning. These secretions are: Somatotropic hormone, Adrenocarticotropic hormone, Prolactin, amongst others.

This process uses two inducing agents: natural (pituitary substances) and synthetic (e.g. steroids).

The process consists of the next steps (summarized):

1. The pituitary gland is collected from a recently-killed fish - donor through the removal of the dorsal side of the skull.

2. The pituitary glands are preserved in alcohol or nitrogen (freezing method).

3. The pituitary gland is prepared by locating it in distilled water or a saline solution

4. Intramuscular administration via injection.

5. Fish are released inside a breeding tank.

During the winter season, the tree branches get dormant.

Explanation:

As the winter season starts, many plants show very slower metabolism that is the growth of the plants become very slow.

During the winter, there is very low amount of sunlight that the plants receive and so the synthesis of chlorophyll by the plants also in very small amount, and so there is least amount of sugar to metabolize by means of a slower Photosynthesis.

These tree branches become dormant during winter season, and it is mostly covered with the scales.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The question as the options lacking but based on the question we can infer the ANSWER

Based on the results of the experiment we can best say that urea will disrupt the function of the certain enzyme and that when the urea is removed the enzyme regained its function.

Explanation:

Denaturation is the term used to describe urea effect on the enzymes as it inactivates it by affecting it's secondary and tertiary function. In the process it’s 3D structural conformation is altered.
