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

Cloning and identifying genetically caused diseases
Molecular genetics is scientific study of composition of genes. This field is a subcategory of biology and heredity which is responsible for unearthing and delving the anatomy and physiology of the genes. This field helps us to understand and find evidence in the compounds, substances and elements found and synthesized in our genes and what contains in our nucleic acides –RNA and DNA –framework of our chromosomes. And also the origin and history of how genes came to be. These are codes and like-signals that makes us who we are in a macro-perspective.

Compare each patient's cdna sequence to the wild-type cdna sequence. Each patient has one nucleotide-pair substitution mutation.
Lera25 [3.4K]

The mutation is a change in the nucleotidic sequence. In the exposed example, Patient 1: nucleotide 143, T<u>T</u>C⇒T<u>G</u>C. Patient 2: nucleotide 143, T<u>T</u>C⇒T<u>C</u>C. Patient 3: nucleotide 147, TT<u>C</u> ⇒ TT<u>G</u>.

<h3>What is a mutation?</h3>

A mutation is a change or alteration in DNI sequences that introduce new variants.

Many of these are eliminated, but some of them might succeed and be incorporated into each individual.

These mutations are the ones that have been selected by natural selection.

<h3>Solving the problem</h3>

We know that each sequence initiates with nucleotide number 103 and ends in nucleotide 162.

So first, we will number the nucleotides, from 103 to 162. Each nucleotide has a number in increasing order.

Now, we will identify the mutations in each of the strands by comparing them with the wild-type sequence. The mutation occurs in one of the nucleotides, so we must look for the change in the bases.

Finally, we will identify the nucleotide location of each mutation.

                   nucleotide                 wild-type                mutated

<u>                       location                 nucleotide              nucleotide      </u><u>           </u>

Patient 1            143                         TTC                         TGC

Patient 2           143                         TTC                         TCC

<u>Patient 3           147                          TTC                        TTG                         </u>

ASAP Explain how heat in the atmosphere and water affect weather.
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Explain how heat in the atmosphere and water affect weather?

Amount of water in the atmosphere determines the amount of rainfall which depicts how cool the environment would look like.

Water has a great effect on the weather as evaporation helps to determine whether there would be heat or not, when there is high rise of evaporation it shows that the environment or weather is hot vice versa

Genotypes=genetic makeup
Phenotypes= physical characteristics
You can not change your genetics, so that means C is out!
Said genotypes are usually inherited as well so A is out.
I’m not 100% sure but i would deduce the answer is B
