Since the liver is the primary organ for metabolism, then in the setting of liver injury there will be reduced metabolism of compounds such as hormones. If these hormones are not metabolized and degraded in the liver, then these hormone levels will increase.
<em>A particular example is that the hormone estrogen is increased in the setting of liver damage, causing males with liver failure to have feminine characteristics.</em>
Answer:
Porifera—gastrovascular cavity, coelomate.
Explanation:
Sponges do not contain digestive system but obtain nutrients through the diffusion process. Porifera is the most commonly asymmetrical in nature but can also have radial symmetry. Porifera has no coelom.
Lacking a true digestive system, they depend on the intracellular digestive processes of their choanocytes for their energy intake. Gas exchange, circulation, and excretion occur by diffusion between the water and the cells.
Answer:
C. It is a male with atleast one dominant allele
Explanation:
In the given pedigree, the two normal parents of the generation I have one daughter with the attached earlobe. Since the trait is recessive, the daughter should be homozygous recessive to express the trait. The genotype of the daughter (shaded circle in generation II) is "aa". To have a daughter with "aa" genotype, both the parents should have one copy of "a" allele. So, the genotype of both parents is "Aa".
In generation II, individual A is non-shaded square. Squares represent males in a pedigree. Since its not shaded, it does not have attached earlobe. Both the parents are heterozygous dominant for attached earlobes (Aa x Aa = 1/4 AA : 1/2 Aa : 1/4 aa). The genotype of this individual may be AA or Aa.

This means that the fertilized egg has implanted in the fallopian tube and is growing outside of the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy occurs when the fertilized egg settles and grows in any location other than the inner lining of the uterus. Most of these cases occurs in the Fallopian tube (tubal pregnancy). If untreated ectopic pregnancy can be a medical emergency.
