8 0

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- D.

Explanation:

The prostate gland is a walnut-shaped gland present between the bladder and penis.

The prostate gland is a part of the reproductive system and not the urinary system as it helps in the nourishment and protection of the sperm cells. It secretes a fluid which contains enzymes like phosphatases, lytic enzymes and antibiotics which helps in the protection and passage of sperm to the egg cell.

Thus, option- D is the correct answer.

This animal has a protostome developmental pattern and a trochophore larva. Identify the major clades that this animal belongs t
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Lophotrochozoans (it is a protostome)

Explanation:

Lophotrochozoa is a group (clade) of protostome animals, i.e. animals that undergo a developmental pattern in which the blastopore develops into the mouth. Lophotrochozoa clade includes bryozoans, annelids, molluscs, brachiopods, and platyhelminthes. Most lophotrochozoans have either a lophophore or trochophore larvae during the planktonic stage. A trochophore larva is a marine planktotrophic larva with several bands of cilia that form the locomotory organ (i.e., the prototroch), which is only found within the Lophotrochozoans.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Ribose

Explanation:

DNA is a large molecule, a type of nucleic acid which store and act as a genetic material of the cell. DNA molecule is formed by the repeating monomer units called nucleotides.

Each nucleotide is made up of three subunits as:

1. 5-C sugar: De-oxyribose formed by the removal of oxygen group from 2' OH group of ribose. Ribose is the sugar molecule present in RNA nucleic acid.

2. Phosphate group (PO₄³⁻)

3. Nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, adenine and cytosine.

Thus, ribose is the correct answer.

Identify the true statements regarding liver glycogen phosphorylase a. Protein phosphatase 1 is abbreviated PP1. The binding of
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Liver phosphorylase a concentration decreases when glucose enters the blood.

The binding of glucose to liver phosphorylase a shifts the equilibrium from the active form

As the concentration of phosphorylase a decreases, the activity of glycogen synthase increases. to the inactive form

Explanation:

Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) is a phosphatase enzyme known to remove phosphate groups from serine/threonine amino acid residues. PP1 plays diverse biological roles including, among others, cell progression, control of glucose metabolism, muscle contraction, etc. In glucose metabolism, PP1 regulates diverse glycogen metabolizing enzymes (e.g., glycogen synthase, glycogen phosphorylase, etc). In the liver, glycogen phosphorylase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in glycogenolysis by releasing glucose-1-phosphate. Glycogen phosphorylase <em>a</em> is converted (and inactivated) into the <em>b</em> form by PP1, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphate bond between serine and the phosphoryl group. In the liver, glucose binds in order to inhibit glycogen phosphorylase <em>a</em>, thereby inducing the dissociation and activation of PP1 from glycogen phosphorylase <em>a</em>.

Earth’s polar caps quickly losing ice. Coral reefs bleaching to a chalky white. Stronger storms devastating islands and cities, claiming lives and destroying homes. Those aren’t claims of what our world faces in a warmer future. Those climate change impacts are already happening — and due to worsen. That’s the finding of a new report from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC. The United Nations issued a summary of the new assessment on September 25. It’s the panel’s first comprehensive update on how human-driven climate change is upsetting not only Earth’s oceans, but also its frozen regions, or cryosphere. Just how severe things get will depend on whether most countries lower their releases of climate-warming greenhouse gases — or just continue pumping large quantities of them into the air. The report focuses on two potential scenarios. One involves cutting greenhouse gases enough to limit global warming to around 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) above preindustrial levels. By the way, the world is already more than halfway there; global temps have warmed by 1.1 degrees C (2 degrees F) since 1900, according to a second new report. Prepared by the World Meteorological Organization, it was released September 22. In a second scenario, pollution continues at its current pace to where Earth eventually warms some 4 degrees C (7.2 degrees F). Science News for Students took a look at the report’s predictions. They offer a scary view of potential changes that would impact societies and our natural world. They’re based on the latest available science.
