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.

Give three reasons why you might have a situation in which bacterial colonies were found on the first section of a streak plate,
Agata [3.3K]

Hi. You have not shown the sections this question refers to, nor have you provided more information about those sections. This makes it difficult for your question to be answered. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

Generally speaking, we can consider that there was no growth of bacterial colonies in sections 2 and 3, because, for some reason, the bacteria was not inoculated in sections 2 and 3. What could also have happened, is that the bacteria in the sections 2 and 3 were eliminated, but the bacteria from section 1 managed to survive and form colonies.

Another possibility is that after inoculating the bacteria in section 1, you didn't handle the bacteria correctly in the other sections, leaving that bacteria to dry out and die.

Finally, the culture media in sections 2 and 3 could be inappropriate for bacteria to develop and form colonies.
