Complete Question:
Cortisol is a hormone produced in response to stress, including starvation, in humans. Which of the following is most likely an immediate effect of a starvation-induced increase in cortisol secretion?
(A) Increased activation of the immune system
(B) Increased urine production by the kidneys
(C) Increased bone and collagen formation
(D) Increased mobilization of fatty acids from fat cells
Answer: Increased mobilization of fatty acids from fat cells.
Explanation: Cortisol is a hormone produced in response to stress, including starvation, in humans. Immediate effect of a starvation-induced increase in cortisol secretion is the increased mobilization of fatty acids from fat cells (Adipose tissue).
Starvation occurs when an animal doesn't feed due to unavailability of food. The body system makes use of stored glycogen which is synthesized to glucose by hormonal secretion of glucagon by the pancreas.
However, when the glucose converted is finished. Cortisol is secreted, which then initiate the mobilization of fatty acids as source of energy from the adipose tissues (fat cells) in the body system.
Answer:
Explanation:
All Cnidarians have appendages with stinging cells in their tips which are utilized to capture and stifle prey. In truth, the phylum title "Cnidarian" actually implies "stinging animal." The stinging cells are called cnidocytes and contain a structure called a nematocyst. The nematocyst could be a coiled thread-like stinger.
This is an example le of commensalism.The burdock seeds benefit and the cow is unharmed.
Answer:
10 arrangements, although the parents have brown hair, they have a recessive allele for the blonde hair. The two brown heads can make a blonde or brown and or course even a red haired child. In this case the parents with dominant brown hair have a recessive blonde hair giving them a chance to have 10 arrangements to have blonde hair due to their recessive allele.
Explanation:
Heterozygous means that to have inherited different forms of a particular gene from each parent. In this case the children will inherit both brown and blonde hair genes.
