Answer:

A) sebaceous glands

Explanation:

Sebaceous glands are responsible for producing and secreting sebum, a substance that can lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair, giving them a brighter appearance.

However, a <u>high</u> <u>production</u> of sebum through these glands can cause exaggerated greasiness in the hair as well as acne on the skin.

Meanwhile, low sebum production can leave the skin dull and dehydrated, causing premature aging, and leaving hair dry and brittle due to lack of lubrication.

Earth is heated by global warming. How is the water cycle affected by global warming?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Put simply, water evaporates from the land and sea, which eventually returns to Earth as rain and snow. Climate change intensifies this cycle because as air temperatures increase, more water evaporates into the air. Warmer air can hold more water vapor, which can lead to more intense rainstorms, causing major problems like extreme flooding in coastal communities around the world.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A) Humans without this gene exhibit problem with oxygen binding in their red blood cells.

Explanation:

  • Oxygen binds to red blood cells because of their hemoglobin component. It is a protein found in red blood cells.
  • Each hemoglobin molecule is able to bind to four oxygen molecules.
  • If the gene controlling hemoglobin production is absent in humans, the red blood cells will not be able to bind to oxygen.
  • Hence, if the gene given in diagram is removed and it results in difficulty in binding of oxygen to red blood cells, that gene might be involved in hemoglobin production.
