Glucagon is the hormone that helps in restoring the levels of blood glucose levels. It is produced by alpha cells of the pancreas. It stimulates the liver to break the glycogen, so that they may be utilized by the body, as a source of energy. It also stimulates glucose synthesis in the body.

Design an experiment where you would determine how quickly lactaid works to break down milk sugar at different temperatures
choli [55]
1. Gather 11 cups and then fill each cup with 5 ounces of whole milk, next is take the first cup to add a known quantity of lactaid. As a control, take another cup and do not add any lactaid. After 1minute, pour a known quantity of Benedicts into cups of milk. Record the color (blue is the least amount of glucose progressing to green, then yellow, orange, red, and brick red/brown). Take another cup of milk and then add the lactaid and wait 5minutes next is add the Benedicks. Record the color, repeat steps 7-10 adding 5minutes each time until there are no cups left (15 minutes, 20, 25,30,35,40,45).
For the last is Graph the data and form conclusions.

Why is acetylcholine broken down?
Aneli [31]

Acetylcholine broken down is the process by which this neurotransmitter activates a suitable ligand-receptor to trigger a cell signaling pathway.

<h3>What is Acetylcholine?</h3>

Acetylcholine is a chemical messenger (i.e., a neurotransmitter) that is used to transmit signals inside the body.

Acetylcholine broken down is due to its hydrolysis, which ends cell signaling between brain synapses.

In conclusion, Acetylcholine broken down is the process by which this neurotransmitter activates a suitable ligand-receptor to trigger a cell signaling pathway.

are chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length, gene position and centromere location
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

This definition suits that of "HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES"

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are similar pairs of chromosomes i.e. in length, gene positioning and centromere location (one from each parent) but not identical. Homologous chromosomes are not identical in the sense that, alleles on each pair may be different, resulting in genetic variation of the offspring.

Using humans as a case study, a karyotype (pictorial display of chromosomal arrangement) shows the complete set of chromosomes, which has two complete set (diploid). Each human cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, with each pair contributed by each parent i.e. 46 chromosomes in total. Every chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosome.
