Answer:

Option B, chemical energy to thermal energy

Explanation:

All living organism feed on food that contains energy in the form of chemical energy. Once the food is intake and processed for fulfilling energy requirement of all metabolic processes with in a cell, the remaining energy is released as heat (thermal energy). Thus, an amoeba while consuming a sugar molecule converts chemical energy with in the sugar to thermal energy in the form of energy molecules.

Hence, option B is correct

Which pituitary hormone causes liver cells to release somatomedins that increase the rate of uptake of amino acids by cells such
Goryan [66]

Question: Which pituitary hormone causes liver cells to release somatomedins that increase the rate of uptake of amino acids by cells such as skeletal muscle fibers?

follicle-stimulating hormone

prolactin

thyroid-stimulating hormone

growth hormone

Answer:

growth hormone

Explanation:

Somatomedins are growth factors. The growth hormone makes the cells such as liver cells, skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to secrete the somatomedins. The somatomedins from the liver enter the bloodstream to reach the target cells. The somatomedins make the skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to absorb amino acids into the cells so as to facilitate protein synthesis. This growth factor also downregulates the breakdown of proteins. This is how growth hormone triggers the growth of muscles and soft tissues.

how does the process of meiosis, independent assortment, and allele segregation affect the characteristics that offspring inheri
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

It results in the production of new combinations of alleles due to which offspring can have different characters than both the parents.

In meiosis, the genes are randomly segregated and the alleles of genes are independently assorted to produce haploid gametes.

When the gametes of male and female fuses, they form the zygote with a unique or new combination of alleles as compared to that of parents.

It increases the genetic variations in the population.
