<u>Definition:</u>

The sex hormone  and endogenous steroid present in human and other species ' menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis are known as "Progesterone" while the primary sex hormone in females  responsible for the development and control of the female reproductive system and for the characteristics of secondary sex is termed as "Estrogen" or "oestrogen".

<u>Progesterone Effects:</u>

  • Progesterone has a variety of physiological effects which are exacerbated when estrogens are present for an instance in breast tissue, where estrogens permits progesterone to mediate lobuloalveolar development.
  • Progesterone has main effects on human sperm by non-genomic signals, as they move through the female tract before fertilization.
  • Progesterone is called "hormone of pregnancy" as transform the endometrium to its secretory stage for uterine implantation, decrease the maternal immune response to permit for the acceptance of the pregnancy during implantation and gestation, prevent preterm labor, inhibits lactation during pregnancy etc.

<u>Estrogen Effects:</u>

  • Effects structure of human and categorize them as male and female, while females have three kind of estrogen: Estrone (weak and found in women after menopause), Estradiol (strong and it is steroid produced by ovaries ) and Estriol (weakest and waste product after body produces estradiol).
  • It effects ovaries, vagina, Fallopian tube, uterus, cervix and mammary glands.
  • It triggers the release of an egg due to high level during halfway of cycle but decreases after ovulation.

<u>Similarities between progesterone and estrogen: </u>

Progesterone and estrogen  as such do not have similar function but work with coordination as both are need for menstrual cycle functioning and regulation. Estrogens usually travel in fluids through the bloodstream, communicate with cells in the body's various tissues, and provide a message or guidance while progesterone helps to balance pregnancy period  and to implant an egg in uterus.

How do mutagens damage DNA?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Some mutagens strip DNA nucleotides (bases) of essential modifications—for example, they deaminate the bases—such that these bases resemble different nucleotides and confuse the DNA replication machinery. Subsequent rounds of DNA replication then permanently incorporate such changes.

Explain how Swine flu becomes a biological hazard.​
klemol [59]

Answer:

Biological hazary are natural scenarios involving disease, disability or death on a large scale among humans, animals and plants due to micro-organisms like bacteria, or virus or toxins.

The H1N1 virus (Cause 9f Swine flu) is believed to have begun its deadly journey in pigs from a small region of central Mexico in January 2009. By March, the first cases were reported in California and Texas. By June, it was in 74 countries across the globe. A year later, when the WHO declared an end to the pandemic, between 151,700 and 575,400 people had died.

A massive global vaccine effort led by the US helped end the pandemic, but the H1N1 virus is still with us. Every year it circulates as a seasonal flu, causing sickness, hospitalisation and dead

What is the process of Asexual reproduction? Honey Bees
Vlada [557]

Answer:

ASEXUAL

female worker bees are able to reproduce asexually: they lay eggs that are essentially fertilised by their own DNA, which develop into new worker bees.  The team sequenced the entire genomes of a sample of Cape bees and compared them with other populations of honeybees that reproduce normally.

SEXUAL

The typical story of reproduction is that males and females of an animal species do it sexually. Generally, that's what honeybees do, too. Sperm from a male drone fertilizes a queen's eggs, and she sends out a chemical signal, or pheromone, that renders worker bees, which are all female, sterile when they detect it.
