Answer:
combines genes from organisms of different species in a lab
Explanation:
Recombinant DNA technology involves the process of joining the genes (DNA) of different multiple species in order to insert into another organism (host). Recombinant DNA technology has many applications in genetic engineering.
One example of Recombinant DNA is the synthesis of Insulin in bacteria cell where a human insulin gene is first inserted into a plasmid vector, then inserted into a bacterial cell that uses its expression abilities to transcribe and translate the gene into INSULIN protein.
This procedure is usually conducted in a laboratory with the use of certain laboratory equipments.
Answer:
B. Glucagon
Explanation:
Glucagon is a pancreatic hormone, secreted by the alpha cells of islets of Langerhans. Whenever the blood glucose level falls, glucagon is released to increase the blood glucose levels. This function of glucagon is quite opposite to the function of insulin and hence both are antagonistic hormones. Insulin reduces the blood glucose where as glucagon increases the blood glucose.
Glucoagon is large polypeptide of 29 amino acids. Since it helps in increasing the blood glucose homeostatic levels it is called as hyperglycemic hormone. It does so by stimulating certain processes such as:
- Stimulating Glycogenolysis i.e breakdown of glycogen to release more glucose from liver.
- Stimulating Gluconeogenesis i.e. synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources like proteins.
- Glucagon inhibits the process of glycogenesis i.e. synthesis of glycogen, the storage form of glucose.
The correct answer is: <em>tibia</em>
The femur, also known as the thigh bone, is one of the longest bones of the human body. The distal point of the femur refers to the area furthest away from its point of attachment, which in this case is the hip joint (please refer to the attached image). When referring to the image, you can see that the distal end of the femur articulates with the bone known as the tibia or shin bone. The tibia is the larger of the two bones located at the distal end of the femur. The tibia includes the knee and ankle joints. Therefore, the bone that articulates with the distal end of the femur is the tibia.
The answer to your question is Corruption is exhibited in this scenario.
