Answer:

<h2>The pancreas releases insulin.</h2>

Explanation:

Pancreas release both insulin as well as glucagon, but there release depends on different glucose levels in bloodstream. When blood glucose concentration increases, in response to it Insulin is released by the beta cells in the islets of Langerhans.

Role of insulin: i) it lower glucose levels in the bloodstream, ii) it also promote the storage of glucose in muscle, liver and other parts o the body .

While  alpha cells in the islets of Langerhans produce glucagon when glucose concentration decreases in the blood.

Genetic variation helps populations adapt to a changing
timama [110]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is the kind of reproduction that requires two organisms (male and female) to form an offspring. The male organism produces gametes called SPERM while the female organism produces gametes called EGG. These two gametes come together in a process called FERTILIZATION to produce a zygote, which develops into an offspring.

In sexual reproduction, gametes are produced by organisms involved via a process called MEIOSIS. Meiosis, however, reduces the chromosome number of the gametes by half. However, one process unique to only meiosis and sexual reproduction is called CROSSING OVER.

Crossing over is the process whereby chromosome segments is exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosome. This process causes a recombination of chromosomes (alleles) in such a way that the gametes will be genetically different from the parent organisms (genetic variation). According to this question, sexual reproduction leads to more genetic variation than asexual reproduction due to the process of CROSSING OVER that occurs in sexual reproduction.

Human caused reductions of biodiversity, include pollution, invasive species, and overexploitation.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Development, together with globalization, drove severe changes at a global level. The natural and original environments suffered from these effects and still are.

Human beings have constantly been altering the natural ecosystems and causing irreparable damages to nature. For many decades, development involved society and technology advance over new areas unpopulated by humans.

<u>Some</u> of the principal human activities responsible for biodiversity loss are

  • the uncontrolled use of unrenewable resources,
  • overexploitation of renewable resources;
  • land destruction for the mining industry, farming and cattle industry, buildings, and other infrastructures;
  • the unplanned advance of cities, and opening of new roads to connect those cities.  

All of them involving

  • deforestation and fragmentation of natural landscapes;
  • water, air, and soil pollution,
  • species loss, and reduction of biodiversity.

With globalization, transport around the world became normal. And when traveling around the world, new species are intentionally or unintentionally transported too. When these species, of animal or vegetable origin, get established in a new area, they overgrow to the point of turning invasive.

Invasive species are uncontrollable and cause severe damage in native endemic species by competing for resources. The whole ecosystem structure changes.

But there are some background glitches in the system that are the principal responsible for all the mentioned activities. Some important aspects are lacking

  • The respect for nature,
  • People´s education at different levels to care and protect wildlife,
  • Interest in keeping ancestral knowledge,
  • Planning and previous environmental impact studies,
  • Policies to control human activities,
  • Caring involved government.

If, as a society, we lack these aspects, the possibilities of changing our impact on nature are far away.

Assume that a DNA double helix contains 100 base airs one pair is A-T or C-G and there 45 cytosines how many guaninas are there?
Semenov [28]
45 guanine, 55 adenines

Every cytosine needs a guanine to be a pair, so that is 45 pairs right there.
100-45 = 55
There should be 55 adenine and thymine pairs to fill in the remaining bases

What is the difference between an endoskeleton and a exoskeleton? What types of animals have each?
dsp73

Answer:

an endoskeleton is a skeleton on the inside of a living creature. look at endo like enter, its on the inside! an exoskeleton is on the outside of a living creature. think of exo as exit, its on the outside! animals with endoskeletons are like dogs, cats, fish, and raccoons. animals with exoskeletons are like spiders, ants, crabs, and snails.

please give brainliest :)
