Endocrine system regulates and controls growth, development, and metabolism.

Option A

<u>Explanation</u> :

The "endocrine system" consist of many glands which are collectively responsible for growth, development and metabolism. The hormones released from these glands controls the function of the other cells. Endocrine system forms both negative and positive feedback loops which inturn controls the release of hormones from the target cells back to the glands to stop the release of the reaction initiating hormone.

Endocrine glands are influenced with the physical factors in which the body is exposed and dealing with and releases hormone accordingly. For example due to darkness of night pineal gland releases melatonin to induce sleepiness in animals.

Nuts are a good source of vitamin E. <br> a. True<br> b. False
mixer [17]
Nuts indeed are a good source of vitamin E. This is true. However, when talking about nuts we have to consider that not all nuts have the same nutritional information nor do all of them have plenty of vitamin E. While we can say this for most, it is necessary to be wary of making such statements.

2. Describe the problem that McClintock suggested Harriet Creighton solve.
harina [27]

Answer:

'Cross experiments done by Morgan, illustrating the X-inheritance link of a mutation Thomas Hunt Morgan moved intensely in a program of breeding and crossing miles of fruit flies at New York University in a room that was renamed the Fourth of the Flies. He tried to mutate the flies with various means (X-rays, centrifuges, etc.) .The fruit fly which has 4 pairs of chromosomes. One of those pairs was identified as containing X and Y sex chromosomes. He applied Mendelian principles in flies. Morgan's inheritance study demonstrated inheritance linked to sex, and is one of the first evidences that confirm the chromosomal theory of cross-based inheritance. In 1909, Morgan detected a fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) with a strange mutation which he called "white eyes", due to the coloration of his eyes (contrary to normal, which is red). Analyzing this fly under the microscope Morgan discovered that it was a male, and could use it as a stallion so that he could observe how the new characteristic of white eyes would pass from generation to generation.All the offspring of this cross will have red eyes, which He made Morgan suspect that something strange had happened, since the color of the father's eyes could not have disappeared. He decided to take a couple of "daughters flies" and cross them together, just to see what happened. Morgan's surprise was very great, observing that among the "granddaughters" flies only males had white eyes. The problem then was to explain what had happened during the hereditary transmission for the color of the white eyes only the males possessed. .
