The relatively long half-life of lipid soluble hormones (steroid hormones) compared to water soluble hormones is due in part to
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The transport protein-hormone complexes of lipid soluble proteins can not cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are water-insoluble (hydrophobic) in nature. Since blood has watery medium, the plasma, the lipid-soluble hormones travel in blood through transport proteins. The transport protein-hormone complexes are too large to cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus. The impermeability of the filtration membrane of glomerulus for protein-hormone complexes increases the half-life of lipid-soluble proteins.

In your own words Describe how autotrophs and heterotrophs obtain energy. please this answer must be at least 150 words any one
blsea [12.9K]

The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.

Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers.  They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.

Some are photo-hetrotrophs,  who use light as energy but cannot use carbon  dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
