After eating a large meal of pasta, an individual's blood sugar levels are elevated. In response to this, the pancreas secretes

a hormone called insulin, which acts to lower blood sugar levels. Once the blood sugar levels drop to the normal level, the pancreas stops secreting insulin. This is an example of

Answer:

I believe the correct answer is homeostasis. When your blood sugar is too high, your pancreas secretes insulin. When your blood sugar is too low, your pancreas secretes glucagon to regulate it.

tumor cells: tumor cells

Researchers from Harvard Medical School, Boston, and the Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, have discovered that the remains of tumor cells killed by chemotherapy or other cancer treatments can actually stimulate tumor growth by inducing an inflammatory reaction. The study also reveals that a family of molecules called resolvins can suppress this unwanted inflammatory response, suggesting new ways to enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies

Conventional, radiation- and drug-based cancer therapies aim to kill as many tumor cells as possible, but the debris left behind by dead and dying cancer cells can stimulate the production of proinflammatory cytokines, signaling molecules that are known to promote tumor growth.

“Dead and dying tumor cells are an underappreciated component of the tumor microenvironment that may promote tumor progression,” explained Charles N. Serhan, PhD, Director of the Center for Experimental Therapeutics and Reperfusion Injury at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Professor at Harvard Medical School. Serhan and colleagues therefore decided to investigate whether tumor cell debris can stimulate tumor growth.

What would be the physical sign that a bone cannot continue longitudinal growth?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

c) The presence of an ephiphyseal line

Explanation:

The options should be:

a) the presence of osteoblasts

b) the presence of osteons

c) The presence of an ephiphyseal line

d) the presence of hyaline cartilage on the ends of the bone

Explanation:

In vertebrates, the epiphyseal line is formed once the bone is completely grown. This occurs inside a plate known as the epiphyseal plate.

From the age of 18 to 21, the bone stops growing and the cartilage inside this plate gets replaced by bone. However, bones can keep growing in width until we are approximately 25 years old.

Therefore, the physical sign that indicates that a bone cannot continue longitudinal growth would be the presence of an ephiphyseal line.
