Answer:

<em>D) raises blood glucose levels. </em>

Explanation:

Glucagon is a small polypeptide synthesized by cells. This 29 amino acid peptide hormone is synthesized by pancreas alpha cells and has a molecular weight of 3485 dalton

It has an opposite effect to insulin by increasing blood glucose levels since it increases phosphorylase activity through cyclic AMP, after binding to glucagon receptors coupled to protein G on hepatocytes.

It is a stress hormone. Stimulates catabolic processes and inhibits anabolic processes.

              The correct answer is D. raises blood glucose levels.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/Lis the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

C_{N_2}=K_H\times p_{liquid}

where,

K_H = Henry's constant = 6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen

p_{N_2}= P\times \chi_{N_2} (Raoult's law)

=2.71 atm\times 0.78=2.1138 atm

C_{N_2}=6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 2.1138 atm

C_{N_2}=1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/L

1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/Lis the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.

If the input force applied to one end of a first-class lever is 8 N, and the fulcrum is located 6 m away from the input force bu
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

16 N

Explanation:

The ratio of output force to the input force is called mechanical advantage of the lever. Also, the ratio of input arm distance to the output arm distance is called mechanical advantage of the lever.

We have,

Input force = 8 N

Input arm distance = 6 m

Output arm distance = 3 m

We need to find the resulting output force. So,

\dfrac{F_o}{8}=\dfrac{6}{3}\\\\F_o=16\ N

So, the resulting output force is 16 N.

What is an internal cost of driving a domestic car?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The correct option is: Cost of materials used in manufacture

Explanation:

There are two types of costs of an object: the internal costs and the external costs.

The internal cost of an object is the direct monetized cost. It refers to the cost involved in the <u>production or manufacturing of a given objec</u>t. Example: labor, <u>material required</u>, equipment, energy, and overhead expenses.
