Last year farmers discovered that a small amount of a new insecticide rapidly killed a worm species that was damaging their corn

crops. The insecticide was so effective that they decided to use it again this year. They applied the same amount as last year, but it did not kill as many worms. What is the MOST likely reason the insecticide was less effective the second year?

Inhibition of ADH
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

D. is caused by alcohol consumption

Explanation:

- ADH hormone is also called as vasopressin, it is secreted by the supraoptic nuclei of hypothalamus and released by posterior pituitary.

- The main function of ADH is to stimulate reabsorption of water from kidney tubules i.e DCT (distal convoluted tubules) and collecting duct.

- Anti diuretic means against diuresis (excess urination or loss of water). Insufficient ADH can lead to diabetes insipidus which includes the symptoms such as diuresis and dehydration but no glucose in urine.

- Alcohol suppresses the release of ADH, thus water reabsorption reduces and urine volume increases.

- Very high levels of ADH can result in dangerous conditions such as cerebral edema due to excess fluid buildup in the body.

- ADH allows the kidney to form concentrated urine while excreting normal amounts of salts. Continuous secretion of ADH may lead to hyponatremia i.e decrease of sodium levels in blood.

- Angiotensin II is released when there is low BP and it stimulates release of vasopressin/ADH to cause the vaso-constriction, there by bring the BP to normal.

Solid tumors are clusters of cancer cells and often contain blood vessels. When molecule B binds to the wild-type Brec protein i
Agata [3.3K]

The molecule C-P phosphorylates and thus activates D, whereas Kinase D amplifies cellular signaling by phosphorylating many substrates. In this case, it is expected to observe kinase D overexpression in Brec-MUT cells.

<h3>Cancer, phosphorylation and signaling pathways</h3>

Cancer can be defined as a multifactorial disease, which is often associated with uncontrolled cell growth.

Cancer signaling may be associated with defective pathways such as, for example, a mutated kinase protein that affects normal downstream molecular cascades.

A kinase is a specific protein that acts to phosphorylate specific cellular substrates, thereby activating/deactivating a particular signaling pathway.
