Answer:

The correct answer is C) To determine whether NPY can modulate LH secretion.

Explanation:

NPY means Neuropeptide Y while LH means enhances luteinizing hormone.

In the study above, LH is the dependent variable.

Studies have shown that NPY increases LH secretion in part by enhancing the release of LH in response to GnRH. GnRH is an acronym for Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone.

The above study is a branch of science (Physiology and medicine) which deals with the study of endocrine glands and hormones - Endocrinology.

Cheers!

Scientist recently revise the classification of the red panda . The best a revision on comparisons of data obtained from the red
svlad2 [7]

The classification can be revised based on DNA studying.

Option A.

Explanation:

The DNA or the Deoxyribonucleic acid is the complex molecule that's present in every cells of an organism and it is the molecule for storing the genetic information of an organism. The DNA contains the genes that are transferred from one organism to its offsprings by means of sexual reproduction.

In case of Red pandas, the detailed study about the genes present in them, along with the genes present in their near relatives and a tally between them gives us the information about the number of similar genes and their positions in chromosomes. So the study of DNA information gives the most chance to study the classification of the Red pandas.

A disease breaks out among sheep in California. A scientist takes blood from the sheep and grows a previously unknown organism.
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Koch's postulates".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

a) spontaneous generation

b) Koch's postulates

c) epidemiology

d) vaccination

The correct answer is option b) "Koch's postulates".

Koch's postulates propose four criteria used to establish that a pathogen is responsible for a disease. In his famous experiments, Robert Koch was able to prove that <em>Bacillus anthracis</em> is the cause of anthrax by injecting to a mouse an isolated culture from the blood of an injected sheep. The scenario established in the question is very similar to anthrax, and the scientific approach to look for the pathogen of the disease is following the principles of Koch's postulates.

Because organisms are made primarily of water, they resist rapid temperature changes. This useful quality is based on water's __
V125BC [204]

Answer;

-High specific heat

Explanation;

Water's high heat capacity is a property caused by hydrogen bonding among water molecules. Water has a large heat capacity which helps limit changes in body temperature in a warm or a cold environment.

Water enables the body to release heat when ambient temperature is higher than body temperature An individual begins to sweat, and the evaporation of water from the skin surface cools the body very efficiently. As a result, water plays a very important role in temperature regulation.
