Answer:

B. The <em>pituitary</em> gland

Explanation:

Can't be the ovaries, they're down by the hips!

Can't be adrenal glands, they're on top of the kidneys!

Can't be the thyroid, that's low on the front of the neck or something like that!

It's B, the pituitary; it's on the base of the brain.

Plants cannot release energy from glucose using Select one: a. glycolysis. b. photosynthesis. c. the Krebs cycle. d. cellular re
sergey [27]

Answer: Option B) Photosynthesis

Explanation:

It is impossible for plants to release energy from glucose using photosynthesis because photosynthesis results in the formation of sugar molecules such as glucose.

6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + Energy

From the equation, photosynthesis is seen to as a biosynthethic reaction not a catabolic one.

Thus, it produces energy-rich compounds like glucose not otherwise

Define mutagen and describe how mutagens are used in genetic research.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

A mutagenic agent is any chemical, physical or biological compost that can induce a mutation in the cell's DNA, making this mutation pass to the next generation.

Mutagenic agents are widely used in the fields of biotechnology, genetic engineering, medicine and agroindustry. This is because these agents have helped in the advancement and development of new technological tools.  

In genetic research some bacteria and viruses are used by agribusiness companies to obtain transgenic beings. These mutagenic (biological) agents act as vectors of laboratory-created genes that will insert these genes into an organism to be modified. It could be, for example, a gene that will improve maize resistance against a pest. Thanks to mutagenic agents, this genetic information can be passed on to the organism, in this case, the plant.

Which of the following would be a good adaptation for an organism that lives in the intertidal zone?
barxatty [35]

The right answer is A.

The foreshore, also called intertidal zone, is the tidal zone of the tides on the coast. The alternation of the tides which discover more or less the substrate according to the phases of the Moon determines the conditions of humidity, salinity and temperature of the foreshore.

These variations lead to a vertical ecological structuring of the foreshore in so-called supralittoral, mediolittoral and infralittoral stages. The floristic and faunistic stands of these stages are distinct, according to the requirements of organisms in water, salinity and temperature. Therefore it would be beneficial for organisms living in this period that it can live without depending on the water present in their environment since the presence of the latter is inconstant.

The foreshore is divided into several floors that correspond to different ecological conditions. These coastal stages are defined by the duration of their emergence and therefore by the level of the different tides.
