Answer:
C. is unstable, with a short half life
Explanation:
Paracrine hormones are the hormones that act on neighboring cells only. These hormones or chemicals are largely unstable and have a brief life as do not visit the distantly placed target cells. For instance, somatostatin is secreted by D cells of the pancreas. It acts in a paracrine manner and inhibits the discharge of hormones from the neighboring beta and alpha cell.
Likewise, one of the functions of unstable NO gas is to serve as a vasodilator. It is released by epithelium cells and serves to dilate arterioles and relax precapillary sphincters. Then it is degraded.
Answer:
Evolution is a gradual change in the inherited traits of a population over many generations. Natural selection is a mechanism where the members of a population best suited to their environment have the best chance of surviving to pass on their genes.
<span>Three months after fertilization and development of a placenta around the developing fetus, the corpus luteum regresses and forms the corpus albicans.</span> Formed placenta takes over progesterone production (which was the role of corpus luteum) and the corpus luteum degrades into a corpus albicans. The corpus luteum is being broken down by macrophages, in a process called luteolysis. The remains of the corpus albicans may persist as a scar on the ovary.
