The relatively long half-life of lipid-soluble hormones (steroid hormones) compared to water- soluble hormones is due in part to

the way that these hormones are passed into the filtrate from the glomerular capillaries. From the list below select the best explanation for why lipid-soluble (steroid) hormones have a relatively long half-life. A) Steroid hormones travel in the plasma on large transport proteins that cannot pass through the filtration membrane. B) The large size of the steroid hormones prevents them from passing through the filtration membrane. C) Steroid hormones are absorbed by target cells before they can reach the kidneys D) The relatively small size of steroid hormones allows them to easily pass back into the peritubular capillaries if released into the filtrate

Answer:

Contains large polytene chromosome that permit visual inspection of genomic events.

Were used to study the genetic effects of mutations.

Were used to establish the concept of chromosomal inheritance.

Explanation:

<em>Drosophila melanogaster </em>is a model organism that is used by scientists to study the genes and effect of a mutation on the genes. Drosophila is used as a model organism as it has a very short life cycle and the offspring can be produced in a short duration of time.

Because of these characteristics, Thomas Hunt Morgan wanted to study the factors of inheritance on the <em>Drosophila</em> and concluded in the form of the chromosomal theory of inheritance by the effect of mutation on genes that lead to linkage mapping.

Also, the salivary gland of fruit fly contains the polytene chromosome which allows us to look into the gene events.

Thus, the selected options are correct.
