Answer:
Destruction of the majority of the adrenal cortex would most likely result in decreased levels of mineralocorticoids, sex corticoids and glucocorticoids.
Explanation:
Adrenal glands are conical pyramid shaped glands. A pair of glands present above each kidney. It has an outer adrenal cortex region and inner adrenal medulla. Cortex and medulla secrete different hormones and are also regulated in different ways.
Adrenal cortex has three layers:
a. Outer zona glomerulosa: secretes mineralocorticoids like aldosterone - regulates the metabolism of sodium and potassium.
b. Middle zona fasciculata: secretes glucocorticoids like cortisol - regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
c. Inner zona reticularis: secretes sex corticoids like Androstenedione - stimulates the development of external sexual characteristics in males.
In a condition called Addison's disease, major part of the adrenal cortex is destroyed which results in deficiency of both mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids. Symptoms include bronze like pigmentation of skin, low BP, low plasma levels of Na+, high plasma levels of K+, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
Answer:
Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. Water is necessary for plants but only a small amount of water taken up by the roots is used for growth and metabolism. The remaining 97–99.5% is lost by transpiration and guttation.

Answer:
they have increased
Explanation:
What happens with pollution is that every day are tons of CO2 liberated to the atmosphere. those tons of pollution supose to be regulated by the states, but that is not what actually happens in third world countries there is an almost uncontrolable increase of CO2 liberation at the atmosphere. In the first world countries it's more controlled but still haven't decreased the CO2 levels released into the atmosphere.
The CNN (an spanish daily paper) said: the CO2 levels are the highest in the last 3 million years, in a new released the past april.
<span>"All organisms have the same proteins.
Proteins are composed of amino acids.
</span>The four bases in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine.
These four are divided into two groups. The pyrimidines, the single-ring nitrogenous bases, is where thymine and cytosine is included. The purines, the double-ring nitrogenous bases, includes adenine and guanine.
<span>Cytosine will only bond with guanine; they form three hydrogen bonds. Adenine will only bond with thymine forming two hydrogen bonds."
