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.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The fork is drawn to emphasize its similarity to the bacterial replication fork depicted in Figure. Although both forks use the same basic components, the mammalian fork differs in at least two important respects.

First, it uses two different DNA polymerases on the lagging strand.

Second, the mammalian DNA primase is a subunit of one of the lagging-strand DNA polymerases, DNA polymerase α, while that of bacteria is associated with a DNA helicase in the primosome. The polymerase α (with its associated primase) begins chains with RNA, extends them with DNA, and then hands the chains over to the second polymerase (δ), which elongates them. It is not known why eucaryotic DNA replication requires two different polymerases on the lagging strand. The major mammalian DNA helicase seems to be based on a ring formed from six different Mcm proteins; this ring may move along the leading strand, rather than along the lagging-strand template shown here.

D, because skin tans to help us stand being in the sun without getting burned.

An example of physiological adaption is being able to digest milk. Before, humans were not able to digest milk before we developed enzymes that now make us have the ability to do so, thus allowing us another food source.

The diagram represents part of a plant cell. Identify the name of the location in the plant cell
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The <u>stroma</u> within the chloroplast

<u />

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are membrane-bound organelles  in plants. They comprise many invaginations of a plasma membrane called a thykaloid membrane. This includes chlorophyll pigments in layers called granum, whereas the internal spaces of the organelle are called lumens. Fluid surrounds the granum, and forms the stroma; here, all metabolic reactions within the chloroplast occur- <u>including CO2 fixation.</u>

Photosynthesis, involves the conversion of energy from photons or light particles and water, starting in the thykaloids; here, the pigments like chlorophyll, which is essential to photosynthesis, reside.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Carbon dioxide + water + energy= glucose + oxygen
