Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "It neglects the loss of habitat".

Explanation:

The main objective of the international treaty on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture is to achieve the conservation and sustainable use of all plant genetic resources and the fair and equitable sharing of the benefits obtained from their use. This treaty is managed by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and is applied in many countries of the world. One of the limitations of this treaty is that it neglects the loss of habitat, which can also affect the availability of plant genetic resources. The international treaty on plant genetic resources is limited to work on loss of biodiversity and management of genetic resources such as seeds.

The two systems that work together to cause this reaction are the endocrine system that secretes the hormone and the

Simora [160]

Two control systems of the body

Endocrine and Nervous

Endocrine and nervous system similarities

-Work together to maintain homeostasis

-Release ligands (chemical messengers) that bind to cellular receptors on particular target cells

Endocrine and nervous system differences

Endocrine system: -Transmits hormones through blood

-Targets any cell in the body with the correct receptor

-Very widespread

-Exhibits longer reaction times and has longer-lasting effects

Endocrine System

-Composed of ducts and glands that synthesize and secrete hormones

-Hormones are released into the blood and transported throughout the body

Endocrine system regulation growth and development

-Changes measured from birth to puberty

-Hormones help regulate embryonic cell division and differentiation

-Hormones regulate metabolism

How does the endocrine system maintain homeostasis or blood composition and volume

-Hypothalamus

-Hormones regulate blood solute concentrations (ex glucose ions)

-Hormones regulate blood volume, cellular concentration, and platelet numbers

The endocrine system controlling digestive processes

-Trigger digestion when food is in the stomach

-Hormones influence secretory processes and movement of materials in the digestive tract

Endocrine System controlling Reproductive Activities

-Make sure sperm and egg make it to each other

-Hormones affect the development and function of the reproductive system and the expression of sexual behavior

Endocrine Glands

Contain epithelial tissue that makes and releases hormones within a connective tissue framework

Endocrine Organs

-Glands with solely endocrine functions

-Ex: Pituitary, pineal, thyroid, parathyroid, and adrenal

Endocrine Cells

-Found in clusters in organs with another function

-Examples in Hypothalamus, Thymus, Heart, Stomach, Liver, Pancreas, Small Intestine, Adipose Connective Tissue

-Pancreases is not an endocrine gland, but it does release hormones

g protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium channels mediate depotentiation of long-term potentiation

Svetlanka [38]

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is considered a cellular correlate of learning and memory. The presence of G protein-activated inwardly rectifying K(+) (GIRK) channels near excitatory synapses on dendritic spines suggests their possible involvement in synaptic plasticity. However, whether activity-dependent regulation of channels affects excitatory synaptic plasticity is unknown. In a companion article we have reported activity-dependent regulation of GIRK channel density in cultured hippocampal neurons that requires activity oF receptors (NMDAR) and protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) and takes place within 15 min. In this study, we performed whole-cell recordings of cultured hippocampal neurons and found that NMDAR activation increases basal GIRK current and GIRK channel activation mediated by adenosine A(1) receptors, but not GABA(B) receptors. Given the similar involvement of NMDARs, adenosine receptors, and PP1 in depotentiation of LTP caused by low-frequency stimulation that immediately follows LTP-inducing high-frequency stimulation, we wondered whether NMDAR-induced increase in GIRK channel surface density and current may contribute to the molecular mechanisms underlying this specific depotentiation. Remarkably, GIRK2 null mutation or GIRK channel blockade abolishes depotentiation of LTP, demonstrating that GIRK channels are critical for depotentiation, one form of excitatory synaptic plasticity.
