Answer: D) alpha: catabolism

Explanation:

Glycogen is the storage form of carbohydrates in animals. The major sites of storage are liver and muscle.

Glucagon is a polypeptide hormone, it is secreted by the alpha cells of the pancreas. Low blood glucose causes glucagon secretion. When blood glucose level falls, liver glycogen is broken and help to maintain blood glucose level.

Glucagon stimulates the enzyme glycogen phospholylase which breaks down glycogen into glucose units.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. exploitation

Explanation:

Exploitation competition occurs when the interaction of two species is indirect when they complete for the same resource like food, place, etc. The use of resources by one individual species reduces the amount of resources for the other species leading to competition.

So over time the more fit species will out complete the less fit species. So here two species of bird feed on the same food but at different times and so they reduce resources for each other which is an example of exploitation competition.

Which statement is not true about invertebrate animals?
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

e) Invertebrates lack a nervous system

Explanation:

One of the main characteristics of invertebrates is that they don't have a backbone. Backbones belong to the skeletal system. A totally different story is the nervous system which runs inside the backbone. Although the more complex nervous systems appear in vertebrates the simply fact of having eyes like crabs or insects implies having a nervous system that can control them.

Which organisms have the fewest similarities? Explain why these organisms still qualify as living things despite sharing few cha
VladimirAG [237]

Plants have the fewest similarities with the other two groups of organisms.

<h3>Plants vs animals</h3>

Plants generally comprise all living organisms that have chlorophyll and are able to manufacture their own foods by photosynthesis.

Animals, on the other hand, are living organisms that cannot manufacture their foods and are mobile. Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.

Plants qualify as living organisms because they are able to feed, excrete, reproduce, grow, respond to stimuli, die, and carry out other basic characteristics of living organisms.
