Answer:

3) they lose energy at a varying rate - is the correct answer.

Radioactive decay is defined as the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses its energy by emitting radiations. The decay is random and cannot be predicted earlier.

Answer:

1)  They release energy.

Explanation:

The radioactive decay of chemical elements is a phenomenon in which the unstable nucleus of an atom disintegrates becoming a more stable nucleus, but due to the decay, particles such as alpha and beta particles among others are released.

A Radioactive decays releases energy (it is important to remember that energy is not created or destroyed, only transformed), in order to move from a non-stable nucleus to a more stable one.

The radioactive decay has an exponential decay, which means that it is reduced steadily over time, and this depends on the element.

The statemente that best describes what happens to elements during radioactive decay is: 1)  They release energy.

The answer is phagocytosis.

<span>Phagocytosis is a process which amoeba uses to swallow up large fragments of matter, such as mineral particles, dead cells. These swallowed fragments form a phagosome. The phagosome fuses with a lysosome and forms a phagolysosome inside which enzymes break down those fragments.
Phagocytosis is a specific form of endocytosis.</span>

Drag each tile to the correct box. Explain the process in which hormones secreted by the pancreas function with respect to incre
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

1) intake of glucose molecules from the blood by specific transporters

2) high amount of glucose in the blood, sending signals toward the pancreas

3) binding of hormones with receptors on the liver

4) release of hormones from the receptors

5) synthesis of hormones by beta cells

Explanation:

During ingestion of the meal, insulin is produced in response to high blood glucose levels (concentration of glucose increases after digestion of food). Like other hormones, insulin performed its action through binding specific signals to specific receptors e.g, liver, muscle cells.  The high glucose level in the blood send signals through hormones to liver, fat, and muscle cell receptors. These receptors release specific hormones to beta cells of the pancreas. In response to the signals from receptors, beta cells synthesize insulin to minimize glucose levels in the bloodstream.
