Answer: Endocrine

A chemical signal produced in the pituitary gland at the base of the brain binds to a receptor on liver cells. This signal would be classified as an endocrine signal.

Explanation:

An endocrine signal is produced by a cell that targets a distant cell through the bloodstream.

Hence, a endocrine signal (carried by hormones) produced at the base of the brain (usually an endocrine gland) travels through the bloodstream to the target cell and binds to a receptor on the liver, and then exerts its function.

g100num [7]

The answer is Mullerian mimicry.

Mullerian mimicry is a kind of mimicry in which two or more poisonous animals generate identical presences as a shared protective tool. The theory behind this is that if a predator learns to avoid one of the poisonous species, it will also avoid the mimic species as well.

It is a natural process in which two or more often repugnant species, which may or may not be closely associated and share one or more common predators, have started to mimic each other's cautionary signals, for their communal benefit, as predators eventually learn to avoid all of them.

Which of the following is the adaptation that allows animals to survive in high altitudes which contains lower levels of oxygen
Law Incorporation [45]

The correct answer is option B. Higher levels of haemoglobin

A higher level of the haemoglobin allows the organism to survive in low oxygen condition. The low oxygen level decreases the amount of oxygen delivered to the cells, to cope up this condition, there is an increase in the haemoglobin content. The increased haemoglobin concentration allows the delivery of  the sufficient amount of oxygen, as the number of haemoglobin increase, the capacity of oxygen carried to the cell is increased.
