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.

A plasmid _____________________________ . A. can confer antibiotic resistance to a bacterium. B. is a single-stranded circular D
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option A.

Explanation:

The bacteria organize its genetic material in the single circular chromosome suspended in the cytosol along with additional circular double-stranded DNA molecule called plasmid.

The plasmid is present as a separate structure in the cytoplasm which performs important functions during stressful conditions in the bacteria like providing antibiotic resistance to the bacteria, formation of filial factors during conjugation and many others.

The plasmid which confers resistant to the bacteria is known as the R-plasmid. The R-plasmid consists of r-determinants which confers antibiotic resistance to the bacteria and resistance transfer factor (RTF) which helps in plasmid transfer.

Thus, option A is the correct answer.

For energy, a plant breaks apart some of the small sugars it builds. What does the plant do with the rest of its small sugars?
balandron [24]

Answer:

The plant stores them as starch

Explanation:

A typical plant synthesizes sugars from photosynthesis by using water and carbon dioxide.

6CO_2 + 6H_20 + energy --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2

Parts of the sugar synthesized via photosynthesis is used to generate energy during respiration. The energy generated is useful for other metabolic processes in the plant's body.

C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6O_2 --> 6CO_2 + 6H_20 + energy

<em>The remaining sugar is utilized in the synthesis of starch and stored in the various tissues of the plant.</em>

Mitochondrial DNA can be traced for generations. It is because of the fact that   unlike nuclear DNA, mitochondrial DNA rarely gets mutated. The frequency of mutations in the mitochondrial DNA is approximately one every 3,500 years per nucleotide. That is why mitochondrial DNA of a person is almost similar to his/her direct maternal ancestor. So, it can be used to match lineages amongst people.
