How does the ability to produce artificial HGH affect human life?

The secretion of human growth hormones (HGH) is regulated at the genome level by genetic and epigenetic factors (environment and diet among others). And the expression of the gene of this hormone differs from one individual to another, so the quantity produced differs between individuals, which explains why we observe individuals of different sizes in a population.

Growth hormone acts by interaction with cellular receptors, it affects carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism.

A key component of growth is the growth hormone releasing factor or the growth regulating factor (GH-RF or GRF). This chemical messenger is produced in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus. GH-RF allows the pituitary gland (the "master gland" involved in the growth process) to secrete growth hormone, the main hormone responsible for a person's growth.

GH is not only involved in growth phenomena, it also plays a role in the fine regulation of reproductive phenomena in both male and female mammals.

Answer:

Human growth hormone (HGH) is the polypeptide hormone released from the anterior pituitary. This hormone is also known as somatotropin that plays an important role in human development.

The human growth hormone regulates the cell growth, development, cell reproduction and cell regeneration. The excess release of growth hormone causes gigantism and its deficient release causes dwarfism in the individual. The irregulation of growth hormone disturb the cellular metabolism of the body.  This irregulation of the hormone can be maintained by giving artificial HGH hormone. The deficiency of HGH hormone can be treated by the artificial introduction of HGH.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is: peptidoglycan cell walls and small ribosomes.

Explanation:

Antibiotics such as penicillin are great at attacking bacteria and must be used when dealing with bacterial infections.

Antibiotics work by messing with the bacteria cell wall. The bacteria cell wall is made from peptidoglycan and the strength and support given by it is key to the survival of these prokaryotes. <u>To attack the bacteria, the antibiotics inhibit the assembly of peptidoglycan.</u>
