Answer: C. Prolactin

Prolactin is a hormone that controls milk production together with oxytocin. The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes prolactin and the posterior lobe secretes oxytocin when a baby suckles at the breast. The level of prolactin in the blood slowly increases during pregnancy, and stimulates the growth and development of the mammary tissue, in preparation for the production of milk after delivery.

Moreover, Prolactin is in the highest level in about 30 minutes after the beginning of the feed, which is most important for producing milk for the next feed.

The ATP made during glycolysis is generated by :
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Substrate-level phosphorylation

Explanation:

During the substrate-level phosphorylation, phosphoryl group is directly added to ADP or GDP to form ATP or GTP from phosphorylated intermediate rather than from inorganic phosphate like in case of oxidative phosphorylation.

So in glycolysis 4 ATP are produced by substrate-level phosphorylation. Apart from the 4 ATP, 2NADH are also produced during the glycolysis which is used during the oxidative phosphorylation and produce 4-6 ATP.

So ATP made during glycolysis is generated by substrate-level phosphorylation as ATP is produced by direct addition of phosphoryl group from intermediates.
