The release of thyroid stimulating hormone i.e. TSH from  the anterior pituitary will be decreased and in turn thyroid glands will not release thyroxine in adequate amounts.

Explanation:

Hypothalamus secretes certain hormones that triggers the release of certain hormones from the pituitary glands. Among these hypothalamic hormones , Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) is responsible for stimulating the release of TSH and prolactin from anterior pituitary. If hypothalamic cells are damaged ,TRH  will not be released and thus TSH and thyroid hormone secretion will also decrease.

dangina [55]

Answer:

a. an example of a transgenic tomato (also called GMO tomato)

Explanation:

Genetic modification is the process by which an organim's genome is manipulated in order to achieve a desirable feature in such organism. Also called genetic engineering, genetic modification involves using biotechnology to alter an organims genetic composition. The organism whose genome is manipulated is called GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM (GMO) or TRANSGENIC ORGANISM.

In this case, a tomato with a gene from a fish that helps the tomato resist frost damage is said to be an example of GMO or transgenic organism because the genome of the tomato plant has been manipulated by inserting a desirable gene (resistance to frost) into it.
