Angela is curious about how Clomid works to stimulate her ovaries. Her doctor told her that this drug works by "tricking the bra

in into thinking that the levels of estrogen in the body are low." Which of the following statements help explain why this would lead to a stimulation of the ovaries?
a. Clomid is a drug that inhibits the effect of FSH stimulating follicle development in the ovaries
b. Clomid prevents estrogen from exerting negative feedback, so LH and FSH levels remain high and continue to stimulate the ovaries
c. Clomid produces strong negative feedback on the brain, which leads to a drop in FSH and LH levels.
d. Clomid blocks the effect of FSH on the ovaries. The ovaries respond by increasing their production of estrogen.

Answer:

b. Clomid prevents estrogen from exerting negative feedback, so LH and FSH levels remain high and continue to stimulate the ovaries

Explanation:

Clomifene, also known by its commercial name Clomid, is a drug used to stimulate ovulation, and therefore used in fertility treatment. Clomid is a drug that works on estrogen receptors in order to stimulate the secretion of gonadotrophin by the pituitary gland, and by blocking negative feedback of estrogen steroid hormones (estradiol), thereby increasing the concentration of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). A high FSH concentration leads to the growth of ovarian follicles, whose rupture results in ovulation.

A. Compare and contrast the development of the dorsal and
lianna [129]

Answer:

The principal difference in development of Dorsoventral axis in deuterostomes and protostomes is something called inversion

Explanation:

In protostomates the neural tube is below the gut and the dorsal vessel is above the gut while in deuterostomates is the oppossite, there is an inversion and now, the neural tube is above the gut and the heart tube is below. In both cases the development is related to the gradient of expression of some genes, where the expresion of one gene supress the formation of one structure in one side of the axis.

In protostomates the TGT-B factor is expressed dorsally and supress neural tube formation and ventrally a sog gene is expressed and supress TGT-F factor allowing neural tube to develop. In deuterostomates, an homolog of TGT-B family gene BMP-4 is expressed ventrally while dorsally BMP inhibitors (sog gene like) are expressed.

Accordingly to some researchers, the first state of the common ancestor of deuterostomates and protostomates had an protostomate-like orientation in dorsoventral axis

How does ATP supply energy for cellular activities?What do all cellular activities in living organisms use as a source of energy
Korolek [52]
  • ATP supplies energy for cellular activities by releasing one of the phosphate group in its molecule
  • Cellular activities in living organisms make use of ATP as source of energy

<h3>What is ATP?</h3>

ATP stands for Adenosine triphosphate and it is an energy carrier molecule in living cells of an organism.

The ATP molecule is made up of three components namely;

  • Nitrogenous base
  • 3 Phosphate groups
  • Five carbon sugar

The ATP molecule gains one phosphate group when it stores energy and loses one when it releases energy.

3 ways humans have cut and frayed the woven tapestry of earths biodiversity
WITCHER [35]

Three ways that humans have cut and frayed the woven tapestry of earths biodiversity:

1.       Landscaping. By landscaping, living things such as trees are eliminated to make way for the construction of buildings. And thus, disrupting the ecosystem.

2.       Adding cement to the ocean to increase the land surface area by excavating soil from the maintains.

3.       Cutting of trees.
