The answers are A, B, & C. Steroid hormones have a longer half-life than peptide hormones because steroid hormones ride on carrier proteins in the blood.  In other words, they are bound to protein carriers that transport molecules across the membrane.  They can also be stored temporarily in the adipose tissue. And also, steroid hormones are sent to the nucleus where it regulates transcription while peptides don’t require this process. This is the reason why the effects of steroid hormones are exerted more slowly than peptides.

maxonik [38]

Those changes in an individuals' genotype that ensure genetic variation begin to be done in Metaphase, where chromosomes are aligned to the equatorial axis of the cell, and eventually, each chromosome is pulled to each pole of the cell during Anaphase I. After this process, follows telophase I, where we can say that each chromosome is given to each of the two daughter cells. We can say then that the creation of different versions of alleles begins with Telophase I.

when you swallow, does the epiglottis cover the opening of the trachea or the opening of the esophagus?
nekit [7.7K]
<span>To summarize, when we swallow food, the food pushes on the soft palate, sealing off the nasal cavity and preventing food from entering the nose. The food then begins to slide down the esophagus. The swallowing reflex raises the larynx up under the epiglottis as the ball of food pushes down the epiglottis, sealing off the trachea; then the esophageal sphincter relaxes so the food passes through the esophagus. I hope this helps you! :D</span>
