Insulin is an important hormone that allows the body to use glucose from food. After an individual eats a meal, glucose travels

through the blood stream and reaches beta cells in the pancreas. The glucose causes the beta cells to release insulin. Insulin then travels through the blood stream and attaches to insulin receptors on other cells, which allows them to take in glucose and use it for energy.

Which of the following is NOT a consequence of China's one-child policy?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

(B) Abortion, abandonment, and infanticide of males occur regularly.

Explanation:

China's one child policy was formed in 1979 with the aim to curb the increasing population of the country. Considered world's one of the most controversial methods to control population, it permitted couples to have only one child. As the traditional Chinese society preferred male child over female child, one child policy especially hit a blow to female population. Parents started to abort or abandon females because they wanted to have a male child and government did not allow a second child.

This move created a huge imbalance in sex ratio. Number of males increased drastically with respect to number of women. Males were not aborted and did not face abandonment as they were highly valued in society. The program was relaxed in 2013 and allowed rural couples and ethnic minorities to have 2 children and it was finally scraped off in 2015.

Why is it difficult for persons to survive on planet mercury?
aliya0001 [1]
Mercury is a barren planet with little atmosphere. In many regards it is similar to our own moon. However, it is also very close to the Sun, so humans will have to set up bases in craters or near the Poles to avoid being blinded.
