Answer:

B. grass growing on a newly formed dune

Explanation:

The primary succession is a process that occurs on newly formed environments. In this case, we have a newly formed dune. The dune is consisted only of sand, and it has no vegetation on it. If a grass manages to grow on the dune, than it will be a pioneer species as there are no other species present, thus it will start the primary succession on the dune. As the grass spreads out, it will create more and more biomass, as well as releasing certain chemicals in the dune, thus starting to create a soil, which in turn will provide conditions for more species to move in and start the second succession.

List the three principal hormones that regulate glucose metabolism. Explain the effects these molecules have on carbohydrate met
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The three hormones are insulin, glucagon, and GIP and GLP-1.

Explanation:

After the ingestion of carbohydrates, insulin increases in the blood generating peaks in blood glucose, therefore the hormone that will increase is insulin to lower blood glucose, promoting the entry of this monosaccharide into the cells.

Different from the moments when the person enters into physical activity, and blood glucose is low, therefore glucagon is activated and seeks to remove the energy reserves from the interior of the cell.
