Hi

As we have studied that Mitochondria is an organelle that is considered to be the power house of the cell. It is the main site where production of energy along with its supply to other organelles occur. All eukaryotic organisms contain mitochondria in their cells, however, Monocercomonoides are a newly discovered group of organisms which are eukaryotic but can happily live without the presence of mitochondria because they dont contain it in their cells.

It is believed that in Monocercomonoides, the  iron-sulfur cluster assembly pathway is replaced by cytosolic sulfur mobilization system (SUF)  pathway due to which the organism is able to easily carry out all its life processes. Evolutionary studies have also shown that previously these organisms had mitochondria but lost it during evolutionary processes.

Hope it helps!

omeli [17]

Answer:

B) hypertension and bradycardia.

Explanation:

Autonomic dysreflexia is a syndrome which is characterised by the sudden rise in the blood pressure of the human. The disease is common in the people with a higher level of spinal cord injuries above the T6 level.

The condition occurs when some external stimuli like pain or irritant activate the involuntary response in the body which cause the blood pressure to rise (hypertension). This leads to the slowdown of the heartbeat (bradycardia) to restore the blood pressure but the body cannot restore the blood pressure due to the damage in the spinal cord.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Which of the following is NOT one of the three major types of stimuli to trigger endocrine glands to manufacture and release the
almond37 [142]

Answer:

option C. permissive stimuli

Explanation:

The three major kinds of stimulus that triggers the endocrine glands to synthesize and release hormones are humoral stimuli, hormonal stimuli and neural stimuli. The humoral stimulus regulates the release of hormones with the changes in the concentration of extracellular fluids. For example, the increase of glucose concentration in blood causes pancreas to release hormone insulin.

The hormonal stimuli allows secretion of hormone only with the secretion of any other hormone. The hypothalamus gland secretions allows the anterior pituitary gland to secrete hormones. The release of thyroid hormone is an example of hormonal stimuli.

The neural stimuli allows the production of hormones directly from the glands. The production of epinephrine and norepinephrine hormones are the example of neural stimuli. Thus, option C is correct.
