Answer:

The correct answer is the option - mating factor.

Explanation:

Yeast can reproduce sexually by a signaling pathway called the mating factor pathway. Mating in yeast occurs between two haploid yeast cells. In this process, two yeast cells form a diploid cell.

In this process yeast cells secrete a signaling molecule termed as the mating factor that is used to attract them to mating cells to form a diploid cell.

Thus, the correct answer is option - mating factor.

What are the mechanisms by which aneuploidy and polyploidy are caused? What are the mechanisms by which aneuploidy and polyploid
sleet_krkn [62]

The correct answer is:

The principal cause of aneuploidy is chromosome nondisjunction during mitosis or meiosis. Polyploidy in nature can result either from the duplication of euploid chromosome sets from a single species or from the combining of chromosome sets from different species.  

Aneuploidy is a phenomenon when there is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell (an extra or missing chromosome). Usually it appears as a result of improper cell division (chromosomes don’t separate) and it can cause many genetic disorders.

Polyploidy refers to a state when there are more than two sets of chromosomes (one from mother one from father). Triploid (three sets of chromosomes) and tetraploid (four sets of chromosomes) chromosomes are examples of polyploidy. This phenomenon is most common in plants.

WITCHER [35]

Several hours after your last meal, declining blood glucose levels stimulate release of the hormone <u>glucagon</u> , which stimulates glycogenolysis, lipolysis and fat mobilization, and gluconeogenesis.

<h3>How does glucagon stimulate gluconeogenesis?</h3>

The biological process through which glycogen degrades into glucose and glucose-1-phosphate is known as glycogenolysis. Hepatocytes and myocytes both participate in the response. Two important enzymes, glycogen phosphorylase and phosphorylase kinase, control the process.

By increasing the activity of hepatic adipose triglyceride lipase, intrahepatic lipolysis, hepatic acetyl-CoA content, and pyruvate carboxylase flux, as well as increasing mitochondrial fat oxidation, glucagon stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis. All of these actions are mediated by stimulation of the inositol kinase.

Why are small quantities of CFC so harmful to the ozone layer.
Alla [95]

Free oxygen atoms can replace the chlorine in chlorine monoxide, releasing a free atom of chlorine which can then recombine with an oxygen atom in ozone, destroying more ozone.
