Answer:

By using the secretion of insulin and glucagon.

Explanation:

When the level of glucose in blood is high the pancreas secretes insulin that sends a negative feedback signal to the liver to absorb glucose. Synthesis of fats is initiated, glucose transported to the muscles and adipocytes for storage through glycogenolysis.

When the levels of glucose are too low in the blood, the pancreas secretes glucagon to initiate the breakdown of glycogen by the liver.

Answer:

The string with the thicker diameter

Explanation:

In a musical instrument like the acoustic guitar, strings are pivotal to their function as they are responsible for the varying sounds/notes that the instrument gives. Factors that contribute to the varying pitch i.e low or high, of the strings are its thickness, length and tension.

- In terms of thickness, a STRING OF THICKER DIAMETER HAS A LOWER PITCH while a string of thinner diameter has a higher pitch.

- In terms of tension, a higher tension on the string gives a higher pitch, while a lower tension gives a lower pitch.

- In terms of string length, a short string length emits a higher pitch while a long string length emits a lower pitch.

<h2>Gram Negative and Positive Bacteria</h2>

  • <em>Gram-negative bacteria</em> organisms are not destroyed by specific cleansers which easily <em>kill Gram-positive bacteria </em>
  • Surface displayed proteins on microbes play key role in <em>pathogenesis </em>as they elevate bacterial attachment to have tissues, acquisition of essential nutrients, evasion and suppression of<em> immune response and host cell entry</em>
