Glucagon

This is a hormone that deals with blood sugar homeostasis. When blood sugar levels are low, glucagon is produced to convert the fats in the reserve back to glucose until normal levels are achieved.

Explanation:

Bone remodeling involves coordinations of osteoclasts and osteoblasts cells in the bone. The former breaks down bone tissue while the latter mineralizes bones. Calcium is the main ion in the body significant in mineralization of bone. Excess Ca2+ is stored in bone while low calcium levels in blood result in bone resorption.  

Stress on a bone also causes increased mineralization to strengthen the bone against this stress. This is why astronauts when they go to space, due to less stress from low gravity, bone loses its mass. When they return back to earth, the bone readjusts to the increased stress from higher gravity by increased mineralization.

The hormone responsible for bone homeostasis is parathyroid hormone.

Answer: Several types of evidence supported Hess's theory of sea-floor spreading: eruptions of molten material, magnetic stripes in the rock of the ocean floor, and the ages of the rocks themselves. This evidence led scientists to look again at Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift.

If the function of blood vessel is to keep blood flowing in one direction, what would be some things it would need structurally?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Capillaries, the littlest and generally various of the veins, structure the association between the vessels that divert blood from the heart (supply routes) and the vessels that return blood to the heart (veins).

Explanation:

Capillaries, the littlest and generally various of the veins, structure the association between the vessels that divert blood from the heart (supply routes) and the vessels that return blood to the heart (veins). The essential capacity of capillaries is the trading of materials between the blood and tissue cells.  

Blood vessels a cylindrical organization all through the body that permits blood to spill out of the heart to each body cell and afterward back to the heart. The three kinds of veins are corridors, vessels, and veins. Each vein comprises of a layered divider encompassing a focal blood-containing space, or lumen.

In law of superposition which layer is the oldest and which layer is the youngest
Vlada [557]

<u>In law of superposition which layer is the oldest and which layer is the youngest?</u>


Law of superpostion is an axiom that forms one of the bases of the sciences of geology, archaeology, and other fields dealing with geological stratigraphy.  In its plainest form, it states that in undeformed stratigraphic sequences, the oldest strata will be at the bottom of the sequence. The oldest layer would be at the bottem because of how old it is and because of how much other elemnt has been coverd on it. The younges would be on top because it is newer and just got the in the last 100  years.
