The role of the negative feedback loop is,

that the output is being reduced so that the body can maintain homeostasis.

The negative feedback loop is a homeostatic control mechanism through which levels of hormones are maintained within a narrow range by feeding the product back to decrease its production.

Answer:

The output is reduced so the body can maintain homeostasis.

Explanation:

Our body tends to maintain a stable state under all conditions by utilizing the various physiological processes and this maintenance of stability is termed as homeostasis.

Negative feedback loop is one of the ways through which the body can maintain its homeostaiss.

This loop is regulated by itself and it functions to decrease the output when it increases to a greater level by inhibiting its production from the source.

For example, if the levels of the pituitary hormones increases then the negative feedback loop will signal the pituitary to inhibit the production of the hormone and this negative feedback will be provided by the increased product itself.

Original Codon: CTC GAG

Vesna [10]

The original codons code for Leucine and Glutamic acid. The mutated codons code for Valine and Glutamine.

<h3>Genetic codes and amino acids</h3>

Each of the genetic codes. otherwise known as codons, translates to an amino acid.

Following the table of genetic codes with their respective amino acids:

CTC (CUC) codes for Leucine
GAG codes for Glutamic acid
GTC (GUC)codes for Valine
CAG codes for Glutamine

Thus, the glutamic acid in the original codon has been replaced with glutamine in the mutated codon while Leucine has been replaced with Valine.

Use this portion of a dichotomous key for tree identification to answer the question.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

They are nonlobed, simple leaves and are attached oppositely on the branch.

Explanation:

A dichotomous key is a tool you use in biology to know the identity of things in nature such as trees,flowers, fish or even rocks. This key has choices that follow each other in a progressive manner, where one choice led to the other until you identify the item.In this case, to identify Dogwood, you follow the below steps;

1b. Broad leaf = Step 2

2b. Simple leaf = Step 7

7a. Leaf bases attached opposite each other on branch = Step 8

8b. Leaves not lobed = Step 9

9b. Leaves not heart shaped = Dogwood

The key is (1b,2b,7a,8b,9b)
