4. Cellular respiration
Answer:
<u>1. Homeostasis</u>
Explanation:
Sugar level in humans is regulated by "Insulin" and "glucagon" hormones that are secreted by the pancreas. Both hormones work in a balanced way to regulate the blood sugar level within a specific range if the sugar levels spike or drop.
Together,<u> </u><em><u>insulin and glucagon help maintain a state known as homeostasis</u></em><em>.</em> By definition, homeostasis is the maintenance of the internal environment of cell/body with respect to the external environment. Thus, homeostasis maintains a relatively stable state that persists despite changes in the world outside.<u> When blood sugar is too high, the pancreas secretes more insulin which acts to trigger breakdown of sugar thus reducing its level. By contrast, when blood sugar levels drop, the pancreas releases glucagon to allow conversion of macromolecules to simple sugars and raise its level.</u>
<span>In organisms that breed sexually, the body cells have a diploid number, or 2n, and the gametes have a haploid number, n. The diploid number of chromosomes is double that of the haploid number. So the the diploid number would be 24 and it is produced when the pollen, containing the sperm, fertilizes the egg.</span>
All living things contain carbon. Carbon moves through every level of a food chain and food web. When living things die, the remains decompose, cycling the carbon back into the ecosystem.
