The seed coat develops from the integument of the ovules. The seed coat is made of two layers – the outer layer is called the testa and the inner layer is called tegmen.
Answer:
c.) increased glucose uptake to the liver from blood
Explanation:
During stressful conditions such as facing a mugger, the sympathetic system of the autonomic nervous system is activated. There is a release of stress hormones from the adrenal glands to produce the flight or fight response. One of the physiological events occurring during these conditions is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose in liver cells and the release of glucose into the blood. The release of glucose by the liver increases blood glucose levels. This is done to ensure glucose availability as fuel. There is no uptake of glucose from the liver cells under such emergency conditions.
Answer:
Pepsin
Explanation:
An enzyme made in the stomach that breaks down proteins in food during digestion. Stomach acid changes a protein called pepsinogen into pepsin.

As the Earth travels around the Sun, the hemisphere that is tilted towards or away from the Sun changes.
