Question: Which pituitary hormone causes liver cells to release somatomedins that increase the rate of uptake of amino acids by cells such as skeletal muscle fibers?
follicle-stimulating hormone
prolactin
thyroid-stimulating hormone
growth hormone
Answer:
growth hormone
Explanation:
Somatomedins are growth factors. The growth hormone makes the cells such as liver cells, skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to secrete the somatomedins. The somatomedins from the liver enter the bloodstream to reach the target cells. The somatomedins make the skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to absorb amino acids into the cells so as to facilitate protein synthesis. This growth factor also downregulates the breakdown of proteins. This is how growth hormone triggers the growth of muscles and soft tissues.
The offspring gets half of the required chromosomes from each parent. Human parents would give 23 chromosomes to their child as 23 + 23 = 46 chromosomes.
Answer:
atomic orbitals or subshells it the same name
Answer:
Q1) True
Q2) Metabolism
Q3) Physiological response
Explanation:
Q1) Energy cannot be created (first law of thermodynamics). Life needs an energy source to transform. Without the energy from the sun or any other sources, life would cease to exist. (True)
Q2) An organism chemical reactions consist, in general, breaking down complex molecules (catabolism) releasing energy or to form complex structures from simpler molecules (anabolism) which require energy . The total of this reactions is called metabolism.
Q3) Hibernation is physiological state of inactivity and metabolic depression in some organisms, which result as a response to low temperatures and unavailability of food.
