The hypothalamus controls secretion by the anterior pituitary by

1 answer:

The pituitary gland is often called the "main gland" of the body, as it regulates many of the activities of the endocrine glands. ... HET (thyroid stimulating hormone) stimulates the thyroid gland to release T3 and T4 to stimulate metabolism in other cells of the body.

After photosynthesis, energy that the coral can use is stored in

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Energy is stored in glucose molecules C6H12O6

Explanation:

Producers make sugars stored as monomers bonded together to form polysaccharides, long chain hydrocarbon molecules as a result of the process of photosynthesis. These molecules, like the monosaccharide glucose, store converted solar energy as stable chemical energy in covalent bonds. In covalent bonding, the elements share electrons with each other.

These high-energy bonds are stable and not easily destabilized or broken. The energy is retrieved the the process of respiration in the mitochondria.

Glucose is broken down, while energy is transferred to bonds between ADP and inorganic phosphate, to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Eg. for aerobic respiration...

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP

glucose+ oxygen → carbon dioxide+ water+ energy

Ribosomes provide the scaffolding on which tRNAs interact with mRNA during translation of an mRNA sequence to a chain of amino a

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Ribosomes are ribonucleoprotein complexes composed of RNA and proteins, which have two main roles 1-decode the message of the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule and the formation of peptide bonds in the protein. For this purpose, each triplet of nucleotide bases or 'codon' in the mRNA sequence is used to assemble specific amino acids in the nascent polypeptide chain. Although different, both prokaryotic ribosomes and eukaryotic ribosomes are composed of two subunits: one small subunit that decodes the mRNA into a specific amino acid chain, and one large subunit that forms the peptide bonds in the polypeptide chain. Each ribosomal subunit is in turn composed of ribosomal RNAs and proteins. These ribosomal RNAs act as scaffolds by combining with proteins that assemble into ribosomes (i.e., small and large ribosome subunits).
