Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is- Liver.

Liver is an organ that receives digested food components through bloodstream and stores the glucose as glycogen.

In other other words, glycogen is the stored form of glucose that is broken down whenever there is a demand of energy in the body. Glucagon is a hormone that is released by pancreas whenever there is low level of glucose in the blood. It stimulates the process of glycogenolysis ( that is the breakdown of glycogen to obtain glucose).

A patient is receiving gentamicin once daily. A nursing student asks the nurse how the drug can be effective if given only once
Digiron [165]

Answer:

a."Gentamicin has a longer half-life than other aminoglycosides."

Explanation:

Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside that binds to bacterial ribosomal proteins and causes the inhibition of the protein synthesis, killing the bacteria. The killing can continue for long periods after administrating the drug and even once that the concentrations of this one can no longer be detected in the plasma. That is the reason why this drug is given once a day.

An orange roughy fish is a fourth-level consumer that requires almost ten times the amount of food available from the primary pr
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

C. Only a fraction of energy is passed through each level, so there is less available to upper-level consumers. The energy flow is unbalanced and tends to move toward the lower levels

Explanation:

About 50% of the energy (possibly as much as 90%) in food is lost at each trophic level when an organism is eaten, so it is less efficient to be a higher order consumer than a primary consumer.

Are insects intermediate host or definitive host? Are there any symptoms of gongylonemiasis? If the insects are the definitive h
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

They are intermediate hosts.

Explanation:

Disease-transmitting insects are called vectors.

The life cycle of disease-causing pathogens is closely linked to the biology of the insect that carries it.

 The symptoms of gongylonemiasis include  hemorrhagic inflammation  at the site the pathogen invades,  followed by  granulomatous tissue development that  produces nodules in the invaded organ.

Some diseases transmitted by insects occur in both humans and other mammals because our differences in anatomy and physiology are not very different.

It is unlikely that clinical symptoms will occur in humans if the insect were the definitive host, because our biology is quite different from their biology, and the pathogen would be adapted to fulfill its entire life cycle in their body.
