Answer:

b. They are carried throughout the body in the bloodstream, and each hormone affects target cells that have receptors for it.

Explanation:

Hormones are secreted by hormonal glands after they get signals to secrete or release the hormone. Then these hormones are carried by the bloodstream to their destination. Each hormone has its target organ or tissue which do not response to other hormones because it the cells in those tissue have specific receptor which binds to specific hormones.

For example, luteinizing hormone in male is produced by the pituitary gland which reach to the testis through blood and influence the Leydig cell to release testosterone. So Leydig cells have receptors for LH not for insulin hormone so it binds specifically to LH hormone. So the correct answer is b.

When looking at graphs showing 800,000 years of past climate data, there is a direct relationship over time between temperature
Inessa05 [86]

When looking at graphs showing 800,000 years of past climate data, there is a direct relationship over time between temperature and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere is a <u>true</u> statement.

Explanation:

Many paleoclimate studies and research done by observing events like glacial cycles etc over the past 800,000 years about climate changes over the past years have proved the strong linear relationship between temperature and carbon dioxide concentration in the Earth’s atmosphere.

These studies clearly reiterate that when the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere increases, the temperature also increases; and when the CO2 concentration decreases, the temperature also decreases. Carbon dioxide also controls the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by controlling the temperature.

Increased CO2 levels increases temperature which in turn will increase the evaporation of greenhouses gases present in the atmosphere including CO2 from the reservoir; however, the CO2 can stay in the atmosphere for very long time. All of these factors have led to various climate changes globally .

Why are ecosystems with grass better for herbivores than ecosystems with trees?
xenn [34]
Herbivores are living creatures that consume plants. They don't eat trees because they don't eat wood. They eat organic plant matter such as grass and leaves. They also eat fruits such as berries.

They need the grass to graze on. They can't eat wood.
