<u>Answer</u>: Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- <em>Cystic fibrosis</em> is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that makes a protein called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator).
- The CFTR protein normally functions as a channel for transport of chloride ions in cells responsible for mucus production.
- A person suffering from cystic fibrosis produces abnormal CFTR protein or no CFTR protein at all.
- This is the reason that thick, sticky mucus is produced instead of the thin, watery kind.
Deposition by the river replenishes soil in the wetlands with sediment and nutrients illustrates a positive effect that the Nueces River has on the wetlands.
Option: C
Explanation:
A river in its lower course leave the high elevated area and enters into the flat land. In the lower course of the river deposition is the prime work of a river. Estuary, delta are some of the landform that formed in the lower course of a river. Here, Nueces estuary is formed where Nueces river enters into the gulf.
In this gulf a wetland is formed which supports aquatic life and a dwelling place for them and land species also. Here, river deposits all its sediments and replenish the soil of wetland with new sediments and nutrients.
Answer:
Dexamethasone drug in an individual lowers the level of plasma cortisol by lowering the release of Adrenocorticotropic hormone from the anterior lobe of pituitary gland.But in case of people suffering from Cushing syndrome dose of dexamethasone does not lowers the plasma cortisol level.
Explanation:
Dexamethasone is a synthetic Glucocorticoid.As a result it"s functions will be analogous to that of Glucocorticoid.Dexamethasone generally stimulate the rate of Gluconeogenesis thus increasing the production of glucose.As a result the plasma glucose level is elevated.
