Insulin helps maintain glucose levels in the blood. If blood glucose levels got very high, what would you expect to see happen t
trapecia [35]

Insulin and glucagon are hormones that help regulate the levels of blood glucose, or sugar, in your body. Glucose, which comes from the food you eat, moves through your bloodstream to help fuel your body.

Insulin and glucagon work together to balance your blood sugar levels, keeping them in the narrow range that your body requires. These hormones are like the yin and yang of blood glucose maintenance. Read on to learn more about how they function and what can happen when they don’t work well.

ipn [44]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''METAPHASE I.''      

Explanation:

Metaphase I is the stage in which chromosomal studies are generally performed, because its morphology is very clear. The chromosomes, moved by the mitotic spindle, are placed in the center, between the two asters and form the so-called metaphase plate, in which the chromosomes are positioned in such a way that the kinetochore of each sister chromatid are oriented towards the opposite poles. Keeping chromosomes on the cell equator implies a balance between the forces of the microtubules that tend to move the kinetochores toward opposite poles, so positioning them in the center involves a great deal of energy.In each kinetochore, between 20-30 microtubules can be anchored, which exert traction force towards the pole from which they come, so the metaphase plate is maintained by the balance between the opposite forces of the poles on the chromosomes, which hold their sister chromatids by centromeric cohesin.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

*Sensory adaptation* is the common adaptation in all three sense. Sensory adaptation is the process in which changes in the sensitivity of sensory receptors occur in relation to the stimulus. All senses are believed to experience sensory adaptation.

Explanation:

This adaptation is shared as well as used differently as explained below.

1) Hearing+balance :In terms of hearing, our ears adapt to loud sound as it hits the small bones located in the inner ear. The loud sound leads the inner ear bone/s to contract. This contraction causes the reduction or delay of transmission of sound vibrations to the inner ear. Detection of the vibrations follows. However, this process of auditory adaptation usually does not work very well with loud sounds that are sudden or instantaneous. Examples of these sounds are gun shots or explosions

2)Smell :Low concentrations of several chemicals present in the air can be detected by the sensory receptors in the nose. These chemicals that we quickly detect include those in perfumes or air fresheners
