Which of the light micrographs shows epithelial tissue that forms thyroid gland and secretes hormones?

ruslelena [56]

The Simple cuboidal epithelium forms thyroid gland and secretes hormones is shown in the picture attached.

Its main functions are secretion and absorption. It has an abundance of organelles to facilitate active transport frequently found in glands, such as salivary glands, the thyroid gland, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.

The epithelial cells tend to be cubical in form after they are inactive, however additional columnar after they are actively secreting hormones.
The epithelial cells accumulate iodine from the blood and use this component within the synthesis of thyroglobulin, an oversized compound protein that forms the mixture.

Robins typically lay four eggs. Four eggs allow the offspring to be well fed, whereas larger clutches may result in malnourished

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Stabilizing selection

Explanation:

The process of natural selection selects a species in one of the three ways: stabilizing selection, directional selection and disruptive selection.

During the process of stabilizing selection, nature does not favour the extreme phenotypes of the population but the intermediate phenotype with the maximum number of population.

In the given question, the Robin laid four eggs, neither more than four nor less than four which could have more disadvantages than the advantages. Since the intermediate number of eggs is favoured by nature therefore the stabilizing pattern is observed.

Thus, Stabilizing selection is correct.
