During exercise, epinephrine and norepinephrine are released from the adrenal medulla. Epinephrine and norepinephrine have the s

ame effect on plasma glucose levels as glucagon. Explain how epinephrine and norepinephrine affect plasma glucose and why this is important during exercise.

Answer and explanation:

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are two hormones that are released from the adrenal medulla when the body is under stress (like during exercise, for example) as a part of the sympathetic response.

These hormones have many functions and they all work together to prepare the individual for a fight or flight response -<em> like increasing heart rate and producing bronchodilatation</em>. One of these functions is the rise of glucose levels in blood which is important for this substance to reach several tissues, like the skeletal muscle. The skeletal muscle will make use of this glucose to produce ATP and generate the required energy for muscle contraction through a process called glycolysis, which is key for the fight or flight response mentioned above.

When we exercise, glucose levels rise thanks to these hormones so the skeletal muscle can have enough energy to contract and move as we want. If the exercise is too intense or prolongued, glucose levels will drop and other fuels will be needed to sustain this activity, like stored glycogen and fat.

What accounts for the way most traits develop in organisms?
swat32

Answer: -inherited genes and environment

Inherited genes are the genes which an organism acquires from his parent. These genes are responsible for constructing genetic make up of the organisms. These genes are expressed in order to develop observable characteristics in organism also, called as phenotypic characteristics for example how an organism looks, behaves and reacts to external stimuli are all phenotypic characteristics. Environmental factors induces genetic and phenotypic changes in an individual to add up more traits which are beneficial to survive in changing environmental conditions for example maintenance of homeostasis in cold weather conditions, genetic traits will develop in order to compensate for loss of heat.

As DNA replication continues and the replication bubble expands, the parental double helix is unwound and separated into its two
Korolek [52]

Answer:

DNA replication is initiated by the help of these enzymes.

Explanation:

Helicase enzyme helps is unwinding the two complementary strand of DNA by hydrolysing the hydrogen bonds present between the nitrogenous bases of the two opposite strands.

Topoisomerase enzyme help in expansion of the Replication bubble by releasing the super coiling or tension occured while unwinding by helicase. It breaks the phosphate bonds in one of the two strands ahead of replication bubble or fork to release super coiling or overwinding.  

Single-strand binding proteins gets bind to the separated strands to stabilize the structure of Replication bubble or to keep the both strand separated from each other.
