Answer: The Parathyroid gland
Explanation:
The Parathyroid gland secretes "Parathormone", an hormone that exerts
- direct influence on the bone by INCREASING the release of bone calcium ion (Ca2+) into the blood
- affects the kidney by stimulating the renal tubules to eliminate EXCESS calcium in the urine.
Thus, the calcium balance of the body depends on the secretion of the Parathyroid gland
Answer: b. Acetyl Co-A
Explanation:
Acetyl CoA produced through pyruvate, amino acids, and fatty acids are oxidized in the Krebs cycle in CO2, obtaining as products NADH, FADH2 and GTP (ATP). Parallel to this oxidation, the Krebs cycle produces compounds used as precursors for biosynthesis. As it is a cycle, an oxaloacetate molecule could, in principle, oxidize an amount indefinite of acetyl CoA. Acetyl-CoA is formed from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, sequentially performed by pyruvate dehydrogenase -PDH (complex multi enzymatic of 3 enzymes), in the mitochondrial matrix.
It was the type of diversity that had to do with the niche depending on which niche you are is the amount of varaiaton in your gene pool
