" hormone is any member of a class of signaling molecules produced by glands in multicellular organisms that are transported by the circulatory system to target distant organs to regulate physiology and behavior. hormones have diverse chemical structures, mainly of 3 classes: eicosanoids, steroids, and amino acid derivatives."  Hope this helps-

Explanation:

Hormones are the chemical messengers that coordinate complex processes like fertility, growth and metabolism by traveling throughout the body. Hormones are secreted directly into the blood by the glands, in reaction to the signals received from the brain. All cells in the bloodstream are exposed to the hormones,but only a hormone's target cell reacts, which have receptors for that hormone. Hormone disrupting chemicals can act at any point along this pathway. Some of them are mimic, which sends a false signal by binding the receptor that is not commanded by the brain.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

C. transmits a pathogen to others without ever getting sick

Explanation:

A disease carrier is an individual who is most times asymptomatic (show no sign or symptom) of a particular disease but has the potential to transmit to other people. A carrier is a person who is  infected with a pathogen, but show no sign of the disease caused by the pathogen, because such individual is not affected by the pathogen, such person can be unaware and transmit to others; and on some occasions, they can show symptoms much later.

For example, some people are carriers of herpes virus, but show no symptoms and can transmit to others.

Just considering one locus (a specific location on a DNA strand), evidence at a crime scene shows a genotype of 5, 9 STR repeats
marta [7]

Answer:

0.1 x 0.3 = 0.03 = 3%

Explanation:

Assuming a process of random mating in the population, it is possible to infer that the genotype frequencies will be the product of the allele frequencies. The random mating is one of the postulates of the Hardy-Weinberg Law, which is widely used in population genetics to estimate genotypic frequencies when populations are expected to be in an equilibrium state (it is also expected by default in human populations).  In this case, the genotype frequencies will be certainly low (3%), thereby this locus may be useful to investigate a police case.
