ANSWER: ECDYSONE

EXPLANATION: Ecdysone is produced and released from the prothoracic gland located at the prothorax of the insects, which act mainly to stimulates molting or ecdysis (i.e ex-sheating of old cuticle) in insects.

Moreover, the release of ecdysone to trigger molting and metamorphosis, is stimulated by PTTH .

Furthermore, in cases where juvenile hormone is absent, an insect will still metamorphose into the adult form.

Answer:

ecdysone

Explanation:

Ecdysone can be explained or known as a steroid hormone, which is being  secreted by prothoracic gland. And in its active form, stimulates metamorphosis and regulates molting in insects. It is also known to be steroid hormone and derived from cholesterol.

It should be understood that the hormone is able to carry out its activities, such as  molting and metamorphosis through its active metabolite 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E).

In conclusion, it should be understood that PTTH stimulates the release of ecdysone to trigger molting and metamorphosis.

in the reaction c o2 → co2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. what mass of oxygen would be nee
Strike441 [17]
From the given balanced chemical reaction,
                                   C + O2 -> CO2
the mass ratio of the carbon and oxygen that is needed for the reaction is 12:32. Simplifying the ratio gives 3 unit mass C is to 8 unit mass O2. Given 18 g of carbon,
           18 g x (32 g oxygen / 12 g carbon) = 48 grams. 
For the given product, the ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide is 32: 44.
                      72 g CO2 x (32 g O2 / 44 g CO2) = 52.36 grams

I’m what ways are living organism on earth similar
katrin2010 [14]

All organisms need food for the energy required to live and grow. They all excrete (get rid of) waste products, and detect changes in their surroundings and respond to them. All living organisms follow a LIFE CYCLE of growth and development, reproduction, and death.
