Answer:
Pancreas secrets two hormones called insulin and glucagon which helps in maintaining the glucose level in the blood.
Explanation:
Pancreas secrets a hormone called as insulin, which helps the cell in absorbing the glucose by reducing the blood sugar and providing glucose for energy. On falling of the sugar level pancreas releases a hormone called glucagon. This glucagon informs the pancreas about the presence of low sugar in blood, after which it releases the stored glucose, and helps in raising the blood sugar level. Alpha cell of pancreas produces glucagon.
To prove that a certain fruit (in this case, an orange) indeed contains a certain compound (in this case, vitamin C); then the vitamin C should be extracted and isolated from the orange and must be confirmed by molecular analysis. The extraction process involves using chemicals (i.e. 6% MPA), and procedures such as centrifugation and filtration. Then the extract is stored and subjected to high-performance liquid analysis (HPLC) to measure the vitamin C content.
The answer is B.
It describes the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration accurately.
Complete question:
Prophase of meiosis I has some important differences from prophase of mitosis. These differences include: ___________BLANK pair, and _________BLANK occurs.
A: chromatids; condensation
B.,chromosomes; separation
C. homologous chromosomes; crossing over
D. homologous chromatids; separation
Answer:
C. homologous chromosomes; crossing over
Explanation:
Prophase I of meiosis and prophase of mitosis are quite distinct with respect to the events occurring in the cells. Prophase-I of meiosis is a relatively long stage. The Zygotene stage of prophase-I includes the pairing of homologous chromosomes. This pairing is mediated by synaptonemal complex and the process is called synapsis. The paired chromosomes undergo the process of crossing over during the pachytene stage of prophase-I. In crossing over, the non-sister chromatids of the bivalents exchange some genetic material between them. The events of synapsis and crossing over do not occur during prophase of mitosis.
