An example of antagonistic hormones controlling homeostasis is insulin and glucagon metabolism. The regulation of blood glucose concentration illustrates how the endocrine system maintains homeostasis by the action of antagonistic hormones. When the concentration of blood glucose rises beta cells secrete insulin into the blood; which stimulates the liver and most other body cells to absorb glucose, when the concentration of blood glucose drops, alpha cells secrete glucagon into the blood which stimulates the liver to release glucose.

Which one of the following statements does not accurately describe vibrations? 
brilliants [131]
The correct option is A.
When an end of a tuning fork that is vibrating is placed against a table, it produces a sounder that is dramatically louder than the original sound produced by the vibrating tuning fork. At this stage, the tuning fork is forcing the table to vibrate at its own frequency. Thus, the statement in option A is not true.

Which of the following is TRUE about this reaction?
hoa [83]

The right answer is C

This process is called anaerobic respiration. It doesn't need dioxygen to occur (it can happen with or without O2).

Anaerobic respiration is a mechanism in which electrons pass through a chain of transporters whose final acceptor is a mineral substance other than oxygen, unlike aerobic respiration where the final acceptor is dioxygen. The final acceptor may be the nitrate ion (as in the case of Pseudomonas), carbon dioxyde or the sulfate ion.

Some bacteria (Pseudomonas) are able, anaerobically, to reduce nitrates to nitrites and then, depending on the case, to dinitrogen (with the enzyme Nitrate reductase A).

NO3- ==> NO2- ==> N2.
