Answer:

1) As the body's chemical messengers, <u>hormones</u> transfer information and instructions from one set of cells to another.

2) A <u>gland</u> is a group of cells that produces and secretes, or gives off, chemicals.

3)  Hormones are released into the bloodstream via small tubes called <u>duct.</u>

4) Hormones find their way through the blood to their <u>targeted/respective </u>cells.

5) Each hormone is a differently shaped key that will only fit into the correct <u>receptor</u> lock.

A researcher is using a modified version of FRAP. She has devised a technique that allows her to label all the peripheral membra
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

FRAP or Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching refers to a method of finding the kinetics of diffusion in living cells, generally with the assistance of fluorescence microscopy. The method comprises the labeling of a particular cell constituent with a fluorescent molecule, imaging that cell, photobleach a small section of the cell, then image the recovery of fluorescence with time.  

In the given question, as the fluorescence has recovered back to the bleached region. The scientist can come to the conclusion that the membrane of the cell and the peripheral membrane proteins do not always belong together.

Challenge: A chemical equation is balanced when each side of the equation includes the same number of each type of atom.
nirvana33 [79]
If the reactants are the same the equations are balance but if the reactants are not the same you have to make them balance, however if the reactants are not balance  in order to balance the equation you need to use coefficient to balance the reactants and products of particular chemical reaction.
yet for Photosynthesis the equation 
CO_2 + H_2O => C_6H_12O_6 + H_2O + O_2
Find the ugliest Compound in equation and do not balance first the repetitive Element.
A)So the ugliest one is C_6H_12O_6 and the C is not repetitive and have six atoms so there fore we multiply 6 as coefficient with carbon dioxide.
6CO₂+ H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆+H₂O+O₂ but oxygen will get 12 atoms because is to all Carbon dioxide.
B) Then we have carbon balanced then we are going to balance Hydrogen, yet on product side it have 14 but on the reactant side it have 2 but Oxygen on product side is 9 there but on reactant side we have 1 so there fore we have to multiply water on reactant side by 12 and on product side multiply water with six and in addition multiply oxygen with 6 which land you at:
6CO₂+ 12H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆+6H₂O+6O₂.
so we will have 24 hydrogen and 24 oxygen on both sides. 
Hope that helps you.

1. Suppose the synthesis of an amino acid was accomplished by four enzymes encoded by four genes that formed an operon. Draw a m
vivado [14]

I have attached lac operon model having 4 genes. See attachment for better understanding.

Answer:

The Lac operon is controlled  by two signals.

Initiation

Glucose and lactose  concentrations control the initiation of  transcription of the Lac operon through  their effects on the Lac repressor protein  and Cap.

Lactose absent (Repression)

When lactose is absent, the Lac  repressor binds the Lac operator and shuts  off expression of the operon.

Lactose present (Transcription)

Addition  of lactose increases the intracellular  concentration of a related compound,  allolactose. allolactose binds to the  Lac repressor, causing it to undergo a  conformational change that releases its grip  on the operator DNa.

Glucose absent (Repression)

When  glucose is absent, cyclic aMp (red triangle)  is produced by the cell and Cap binds to  DNA.

Glucose present (Transcription)

LacZ, the first gene of the operon,  encodes the enzyme b-galactosidase, which  breaks down lactose to galactose and  glucose.

Which of the following is NOT one of the functions of skeletal muscle? Which of the following is NOT one of the functions of ske
Rasek [7]

Answer:

regulation of the diameter of blood vessels and control of blood pressure

Explanation:

Skeletal muscles are the multinucleated muscles with striations and are attached to the bones (skeleton). The main function of skeletal muscles is to generate the voluntary movement of the body or body parts. The skeletal muscles of face, rectum, and urinary bladder generate their voluntary movement as per the will of the organism. On the other hand, blood vessels are lined with smooth muscles with spindle-shaped cells.

For example, the muscles present in the subcutaneous layer of the skin of the face are responsible for various facial expressions. Contraction of these facial muscles brings about the movement of skin of the face to generate a wide variety of emotions. Smooth muscles of blood vessels are involuntary in nature.

Vasodilation and vasoconstriction as brought about by smooth muscles of blood vessels are regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Under the conditions of lower blood pressure, contraction of smooth muscles of blood vessels restore the reduced blood pressure. On the other hand, when the blood pressure rises above the normal range, the smooth muscles of blood vessels relax to dilate them and to lower down the blood pressure.
