Answer: The downstream components will be altered and ultimately affect production of glucose.

Explanation: Epinephrine is a hormone that belongs to a class of biomolecules called catecholamines. When it reaches the target cell it binds to a receptor that is connected to an enzyme called adenylate cyclase that converts ATP into cAMP(cyclic adenosine monophosphate). cAMP plays an important role in the phosphorylation of proteins which alters their activity. In this case the activity of the enzyme that hydrolyses glycogen to glucose. When caffeine blocks the activity of cAMP it ultimately inhibits the action of the downstream components.

Answer: frig metamorphosis is complete

Explanation:

This is because in complete metamorphosis, frog develop from egg to adults. Metamorphosis refers to change of shape and growth in different stages of animals life cycle.

Frog mate in the rainy season.

There are four stages of frog metamorphosis and they are;

1 Egg : the female mate with the male and the male fertilizes the egg. The female releases the fertilized egg inside water , they egg are jelly like or cover with jelly covering.

2. Tadpole: the egg then hatched into tadpoles. The tadpoles live in water, it does not have lungs and limbs. It move like fish and uses gills to breathe. At this stage it starts developing hind limbs and later lungs. It has long tail

3. Froglet : At this stage, the lungs and the front legs develop. It floats above the water to breathe. The tail become shorter and it uses nutrients stored in the tail to feed or survive.

4. Adult : this is the final stage, the young frog leave water and start live on land, it's tail disappear completely and it's start feeding on insects.
