Answer:

Thyroid hormones      

Explanation:

Animals and people exposed to pesticides such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, have shown to be affected by their effect on the thyroid. These chemicals can produce endocrine alterations acting as thyroid disrupters. They affect many mechanisms in the organisms such as inhibition of thyroid iodine uptake, <u><em>interference with the thyroid hormone receptor</em></u>, binding to transport proteins, among others. They cause toxicity in the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.

There are many studies that associate thyroid diseases with exposure to organochloride pesticides. Significant alteration in the TSH, T3, and T4 levels have been expressed by people directly or indirectly exposed to the chemicals.

remember to imagine that blood in the heart is color-coded according to its oxygenation status. What color of blood would you ex
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Red blood.

Explanation:

Red blood is for oxygenated blood, while blue blood is for deoxygenated blood.

The blood in Isabelle's left ventricle would be red, in other words, oxygenated. The left ventricle has oxygenated blood because this blood was first in the right ventricle. Then, it went to the pulmonary arteries, which led the blood to the capillaries close to the alveoli in the lungs. In this area, the deoxygenated blood dropped the CO₂ and took O₂ becoming oxygenated blood. Now, this blood is color-coded red and will go to the pulmonary venules, then to the pulmonary vein, and from there, it will go to the left atrium. Lastly, it will go to the left ventricle to start the systemic circulation, which is the one that distributes the oxygenated blood in the body.

What must happen before meiosis can begin
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Before meiosis, DNA that is stacked into chromosomes must replicate. Before replication, the sex cell has two copies of each chromosome, one from mother, and one from father.

DNA replication takes place in the same manner as it does during mitosis. After the chromosome replication, the homologs are double in number, and each chromosome now has a homologous pair of chromosomes.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
