Answer:

Explanation:

Endocrine cells in the pancreas are referred to as Islets of Langerhan. There are two major types; Beta cell that produce insulin and alpha cells that produce glucagon.

They are identified when viewed under slides based on their colour reactions with histological dyes. Tinctorial techniques that can be used to identify them under microscope includes; Mallory-Heidenhain azan trichrome, chromium hematoxylin and phloxine, aldehyde fuchsin, and silver impregnation methods.

Islets of Langerhan cells make up minority of the cell. Majority of them are for exocrine functions.

Dafna11 [192]

Creationists criticize the idea of natural selection as a circular argument, or tautology, claiming "the fittest are those that survive, and survival is how fitness is defined. "

The definition of natural selection is not tautological because natural selection is measured by contribution to the next generation, not simply survival of an individual organism.

Tautologies or circular arguments are true at all times and therefore are not productive as theories since they cannot be disproved. A tautology is a statement which is true by necessity.

Natural selection is the prevalent theory which explains biological change by predicting the mechanism behind evolution.

Nevertheless, natural selection can be explained non-tautologically. It should be described as the theory which tries to speculate as well as retrodict evolutionary change by environmental forces affecting the organisms.

How can microalgae be used to create biodiesel
mestny [16]

The oil extracted through these methods is referred to as "green crude" and it's not ready to be used as fuel until it undergoes another process called transesterification. This step adds more substances to the mix, including alcohol and a chemical catalyst that causes the alcohol to react with the oil. This reaction creates a mix of biodiesel and glycerol. The final step in processing separates the glycerol from the mixture and leaves a biodiesel that's ready to be used as fuel. Maybe one day it really will be easy being green.

UNO [17]

Answer:

Filip's medical report, diagnosed with Alzhaimer's, may reveal a diminished production of acethylcholine.

Explanation:

Alzhaimer's disease is a neurodegenerative condition that causes immediate memory loss, behavioral changes and cognitive impairment, due to neuronal alterations and atrophy.

The neurotransmitter acetylcholine —related to neuronal transmission and body movement— may experience a decrease in its production leading to Alzheimer's, according to the cholinergic hypothesis.

Many therapies and treatments at present are based on the use of drugs to correct the acetylcholine deficit.

Regarding other options:

  • <em>Dopamine: alteration or deficit is related to Parkinson's disease.</em>
  • <em>Gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA): deficiency is not common and is related to a type of congenital and infantile neuropathy. </em>
  • <em>Serotonin: deficit of this neurotransmitter can lead to depression and psychological disorders.</em>
