"Cells in the lining of the stomach produce a protein called pepsinogen. When this protein is released into the chamber of the s

tomach, the stomach acid cleaves off a section of the protein, which now becomes an enzyme called pepsin. In this form, pepsin will actively begin the breakdown of proteins in food. This is an example of which type of eukaryotic gene regulation?"

This is an example of Precursor gene regulation (protein translation) type of eukaryotic gene regulation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The source which breakdown proteins into smaller amino acid is pepsin and generated as top cells within stomach lining or membrane, responsible for pepsinogen emission inside stomach. It is represented as zymogen having an extra 44 amino acids linkage as its primary structure. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) releases this zymogen which is emitted from the parietal cells in the stomach lining.

Once food is consumed, the hormone gastrine and the vagus nerve cause the secretion of both pepsinogen and HCl from the stomach lining. Hydrochloric acid induces an acidic environment that allows pepsinogen to unfold in an autocatalytic manner and thus generates pepsin the active form.

If your blood sugar level is low from skipping lunch what reaction will occur in your liver cells
Vadim26 [7]
The answer is Glycogenolysis

When we are hungry or skipped a meal our  glucagon, <span>an hormones</span> that regulates blood-sugar levels, is released to avoid glucose levels in the blood to decrease to a risky value.

Glucagon makes the liver, but also the muscle, to breakdown accumulated glucose called glycogen into glucose to increase blood-sugar levels. This process is called Glycogenolysis and can also be  stimulated by an increase in epinephrine during  fight-or-flight responses.

2. How has genetics, combined with<br> paleontology, added to our<br> understanding of evolution?
motikmotik

Answer:

To find the extinct species and their divergence of characters can be studied using molecular genetic techniques.

Explanation:

  • Paleontology is the study of ancient species and their remaining that were found millions of years ago. These species extinction can be found and manipulated to find out the origin or divergence of species from their origin
  • The samples of these species may contains their remains that help the biologist to isolate and analyze their protein or DNA. when the DNA is isolated their sequences can be generated using molecular biology techniques.
  • When the sequences are identified by advanced molecular biology techniques, the existence and similarities of different species due to their convergence or divergence can be identified.
  • By identifying the convergence or divergence the characteristics, evolutionary change in behavior, variation in appearance can be studied.
  • By using these techniques, biologist have found that <em>homo sapiens</em>  are 99% have their similarities with chimpanzee
  • Thus, using genetics in paleontology helps us to understand adaptation a species is changing according to the evolutionary changes.
