<u>Definition:</u>
The sex hormone and endogenous steroid present in human and other species ' menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis are known as "Progesterone" while the primary sex hormone in females responsible for the development and control of the female reproductive system and for the characteristics of secondary sex is termed as "Estrogen" or "oestrogen".
<u>Progesterone Effects:</u>
- Progesterone has a variety of physiological effects which are exacerbated when estrogens are present for an instance in breast tissue, where estrogens permits progesterone to mediate lobuloalveolar development.
- Progesterone has main effects on human sperm by non-genomic signals, as they move through the female tract before fertilization.
- Progesterone is called "hormone of pregnancy" as transform the endometrium to its secretory stage for uterine implantation, decrease the maternal immune response to permit for the acceptance of the pregnancy during implantation and gestation, prevent preterm labor, inhibits lactation during pregnancy etc.
<u>Estrogen Effects:</u>
- Effects structure of human and categorize them as male and female, while females have three kind of estrogen: Estrone (weak and found in women after menopause), Estradiol (strong and it is steroid produced by ovaries ) and Estriol (weakest and waste product after body produces estradiol).
- It effects ovaries, vagina, Fallopian tube, uterus, cervix and mammary glands.
- It triggers the release of an egg due to high level during halfway of cycle but decreases after ovulation.
<u>Similarities between progesterone and estrogen: </u>
Progesterone and estrogen as such do not have similar function but work with coordination as both are need for menstrual cycle functioning and regulation. Estrogens usually travel in fluids through the bloodstream, communicate with cells in the body's various tissues, and provide a message or guidance while progesterone helps to balance pregnancy period and to implant an egg in uterus.
This happens during anaphase of mitosis.
A is false.
Respiration breaks down glucose and oxygen, not food.
Hope this helps.
The correct answer is C. The birthrate is higher than the death rate.
Explanation
The graph is about the growth of the world population, this shows the population growth of the world, Asia, Africa, Europe, United States, Canada and Greenland, Mexico, Central America, Caribbean Islands, and South America, and Oceania (Australia and nearby islands in the Pacific). This graph covers the time from 1950 to 2050 divided into decades. In the specific case of Africa in 1950 it had a population of close to 300 million people. Subsequently, in 2010 the population of Africa was close to 1 billion people and the projection for the year 2050 is 2 billion people. According to this, it can be concluded that the birth rate is higher than the death rate because the population has a growth trend, which indicates that more people are born than die.
