Answer:

The correct answer is D) helps glucose enter cells.

Explanation:

Insulin is a hormone that is released by the beta cells of the pancreas. It is released when the glucose level in the blood gets increase from its normal level.  

Insulin helps in reducing the blood glucose level by making the blood glucose to enter the cells so that the blood sugar level gets to normal level and cells can get energy. Insulin also helps in storing glucose in the form of glycogen in the liver and muscles. Glucagon is the hormone that works antagonistic to insulin.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer is E.) Lithosphere, Asthenosphere.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates belong to the layer called Lithosphere. The tectonic plates float on the Asthenosphere which is below the Lithosphere and more fluid than the crust.

From the Earth's surface to the its center we can say that the inside of the Earth is divided into four layers which, starting from the top , are:

i) the crust

ii) the mantle, (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere , Mesosphere)

iii) the outer core

iv) the inner core.

The tectonic plates are part of the Lithosphere and are constantly moving even though the crust is fairly solid. This is because the inner layers

( Asthenosphere , Mesosphere) are much are fluid and are constantly moving which tends to move the tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates collide they do so with tremendous force which leads to earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis as well resulting in a loss of life and property.

arlik [135]

Answer:

The ability of aphids to reproduce both sexually as well as asexually increases its chances for survival in an ecosystem. By the method of asexual reproduction, the aphids are able to multiply in numerous amounts due to which their population increases. Through sexual reproduction, genetic diversity will arise in the aphids population which will make it more stable to survive in an ecosystem. Hence, the aphids benefit from both the methods of reproduction.
