Answer: brief ​fast acting; slow acting

​The nervous system is to brief ​fast acting as the endocrine system is to slow acting

Explanation:

Since the nervous system involves transmission of electrical impulses and chemical substances while the endocrine system involves transmission of chemical substances (hormones) only in the blood stream, the nervous system effect is faster and short-lived while the endocrine system effect is slower and long-lasting.

Examine the genotype for an individual who is AaBbCcDc. Predict the outcomes of meiosis and the potential gamete combinations th
Katarina [22]

Answer: 16 different gametes

  1. ABCD
  2. ABCd
  3. ABcD
  4. ABcd
  5. AbCD
  6. AbCd
  7. AbcD
  8. Abcd
  9. aBCD
  10. aBCd
  11. aBcD
  12. aBcd
  13. abCD
  14. abCd
  15. abcD
  16. abcd

Explanation:

Gamete formation involves the random and independent segregation of alleles. During anaphase 1 (meiosis), occurs the independent separation of homologous chromosomes that migrate to opposite poles of the cell. This separation generates different chromosomal combinations in the daughter cells. There are two alternatives per homologous pair.  

The number of gametes with different combinations is 2ⁿ, where  

n = number of homologous pairs.  

In the exposed example there are 4 pairs of chromosomes, so

the number of possible combinations of chromosomes = 2ⁿ = 2⁴ = 16

Individual: AaBbCcDdEe

You can make use of the fork line method to easily figure out the possible gametes.

A.......B.........C........D → ABCD

                     ........d → ABCd

          ...........c.........D → ABcD

                       ........d → ABcd

           b.........C........D → AbCD

                     ........d → AbCd

          ...........c.........D → AbcD

                       ........d → Abcd

a.......B.........C........D → aBCD

                     ........d → aBCd

          ...........c.........D → aBcD

                       ........d → aBcd

           b.........C........D → abCD

                     ........d → abCd

          ...........c.........D → abcD

                       ........d → abcd

Which two processes does this diagram most directly models?
svet-max [94.6K]

The correct answer is D. Homeostasis and transport of molecules

Explanation:

The diagram presented shows the movement of glucose from outside the cell to inside it. Also, this diagram illustrates this process occurs through the cell membrane and there is a higher concentration outside the cell.

This complex process illustrates the transport of molecules in the cell, which refers to a mechanism that allows molecules and substances to move in and out of a cell. Moreover, this process implies molecules (in this case glucose) move to one area with a lower concentration to preserve equilibrium as shown by the diagram. Additionally, this equilibrium is part of homeostasis which is a set of mechanisms to main an equilibrium in the cell, including appropriate levels of glucose and other substances.
