How does ADH work and what does it do?

Biology
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A.

Explanation:

ADH or anti-diuretic hormone is a chemical messenger produced by the hypothalamus in response to the water level in the blood, maintain blood pressure.

ADH is released in response to the osmolarity of the blood that is a low amount of water which is perceived by the osmorecpetors in neurons. The low level of water leads to the production of ADH from neurons which binds to the ADH receptors in the collecting tubules of the kidneys.

They allow insertion of aquaporins-2 in the membrane which allow re-absorption of the water to maintain the water level of the body.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

Living things use many strategies for producing offspring, but most strategies fall neatly into the categories of either sexual
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

In asexual reproduction method, the offspring generated is identical genetically to the parents. But this is not the case in sexual reproduction. The reason being that the gametes or sex cells produced has only one set of chromosomes and are therefore haploid after the process of meiosis. Meiosis is the process when the offspring formed has chromosomes from two parents and is not identical to the parent. Only certain characteristics are inherited by the offspring from both the parents and offspring has different set of characteristics.  

There is a process of assortment taking place inside the cell when the double set of chromosomes becomes one set in a gamete. Out of the pair of chromosomes, there is a random selection. Due to this random assortment, there is a genetic variation between the gametes as the gene alleles on the chromosome are not the same. This principle is said to be the Mendel’s first law of segregation.  

Another process of combining chromosomes is the crossing over during the meiosis stage which results in variety of chromosomes. We can say that recombination is possible.  

Hence, we can note that during assortment and crossing over, there is no chance for two offspring to be identical to the same mother or father with the exception of identical twins. In the case of identical twins, the genetically identical characteristics develops from same fertilized egg.  

From the above process, the structure of gene gets changed creating a variant that can get transmitted to next generation. The change is caused by altering the single base units of DNA or rearranging larger section of genes.

Mitochondria contain their own genome, are able to duplicate, and actually divide on a different timeline from the rest of the c
posledela

Answer:

The correct answer is 3. Endosymbiotes

Explanation:

According to the endosymbiotic theory, mitochondria was a prokaryotic organelle which was engulfed by ancestral cell. Then this bacteria remain in a symbiotic relationship with ancestral cell and evolved in mitochondria which can synthesize ATP and replicated its own genome, able to duplicate and divide.

So mitochondria are considered as endosymbiotes which means they are organism which lives inside others body and cannot live or function on their own. This theory is supported by genetic evidence that shows similarities between mitochondria and bacteria. So the correct answer is 3.
