Between your evening meal and breakfast, your blood glucose drops and your liver becomes a net producer rather than consumer of

glucose. Describe the hormonal basis for this switch, and explain how the hormonal change triggers glucose production by the liver.

Answer:

<h2>Insulin and glucagon are two important hormone involved in regulation glucose levels in the body.</h2>

Explanation:

The main role is played by glucagon. Glucagon is an hormone secreted by pancreas in response to drop in glucose levels. It converts stored glycogen present in liver into glucose. It also synthesizes glucose from amino acids. Glucose consumption of liver is reduced to increase the glucose level in the blood. Glucagon also activates glycogen phosphorylase to stimulate the process of gluconeogenesis.

<h2>Glucose production by liver</h2>

Explanation:

  • Most of this secretory organ comprises of acinar or exocrine cells that discharge the pancreatic juice containing stomach related compounds, for example, amylase, pancreatic lipase, and trypsinogen, into the pipes, that is, the fundamental pancreatic and the extrapancreatic channel
  • The endocrine cells are bunched together, along these lines shaping the supposed islets of Langerhans, which are little, island-like structures inside the exocrine pancreatic tissue that represents just 1–2% of the whole organ
  • drop in glucose triggers the arrival of glucagon by the pancreas. in the liver, glucagon enacts glycogen phosphorylase by animating its cAMP-subordinate phosphorylation and invigorates gluconeogenesis by bringing down [fructose 2,6 bisphosphate] consequently animating FB Pase-1

in a phylogeny, information about relatedness is portrayed by the pattern of branching, not by the order of taxa at the tips of
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

On a phylogeny, the number of nodes separating two taxa indicates how closely related they are.

<h3>What are taxa ?</h3>

A given taxon typically includes several taxa of lower rank. Taxa are arranged in a hierarchy from kingdom to subspecies. Certain taxonomic categories, which are listed in descending order and include kingdom, phylum (in plants, division), class, order, family, genus, species, and subspecies or race, are universally accepted for the classification of protists, plants, and animals.

Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species are the orderly groups, going from largest to smallest. 2. Each level is referred to as a taxon (plural: taxa) or taxonomic category in taxonomic nomenclature.

In fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) grey body is dominant to black body and normal wings are dominant to vestigial wings. I
zepelin [54]
The answer is C. We can suppose that the Grey gene is "A" and Black gene is "a". So the gene of heterozygous grey fruit fly is "Aa", and the black-bodied fruit fly is "aa". After mating, the offspring can get only "a" from balck-bodied fruit fly and has equal opportunity to get a "A" or "a" from heterozygous grey fruit fly. If the gene of offspring is "Aa", it will be grey. If "aa", it will be black. So the proportion of being black is 0.5.
