Since the radiation has no mass .It is Gamma radiation.

Characteristics of Gamma radiation are as follows:

  • Gamma radiations are chargeless.
  • It is Electromagnetic wave having a very short wavelength.
  • It is not effected by the electric or magnetic field.
  • It has velocity equal to light in vaccum .
  • It has a very high intensity and can penetrate long distances.
  • It has a very low ionizing power. i.e. it does not ionize the medium in whic it travels.

Gamma radiation has proved itself to be very useful in radioactive treatment of cancer due to its high penetrating power.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Evidence that shows that the illustration is an asexual method of reproduction:

1. New tubers were produced without any signs of flowering or fertilization

2. Parent plant was produced from a vegetative part ( a tuber).

All the new tubers would be genetically identical because they were produced without fertilization. They all developed from the division of some of the vegetative cells (mitosis) of the parent plant. Hence, they are not only genetically identical with themselves but also with the  old tuber that produced the parent plant.

Kisspeptin is a protein in humans that has an important role in initiating secretion of the releasing factor gonadotropin-releas
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

decrease kisspeptin synthesis

Explanation:

Kisspeptin is a protein involved in the regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH): it stimulates the secretion of GnRH. GnRH than stimulate the release of gonadotropins such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary gland. FSH stimulates the  production of estrogens by the granulosa cells of the ovarian follicles.

In negative feedback system, high levels of estrogen will bind to their receptors on neurons that release kisspeptin and inhibit its further release.
