Answer:

A low level of testosterone hormone in males would cause condition of gynecomestia. Gynecomestia is a condition in which males develop female like breast. This is an endocrine system disorder. Testosterone is a hormone which induces masculine development in males like development of male sex hormones, increasing muscles and bone mass. Estrogen is a hormone which chiefly develop feminine characteristics like breast development, development of female sex organs. Generally, the levels of estrogen production is higher in females and less in males. But, decline in testosterone levels and increase in estrogen levels leads to subcutaneous deposition of fatty tissue in male breasts.

Answer:

Myoglobin

Explanation:

-Myoglobin is an oxygen-binding molecule found in muscles that is made of a single polypeptide with only one heme group

-Dissociation curve is to the left of the haemoglobin curve and does not display a sigmoidal shape (myoglobin cannot undergo cooperative binding)

-Myoglobin's affinity for oxygen is greater than haemoglobin and becomes saturated at low oxygen concentrations

-Under normal conditions (at rest) myoglobin is saturated with oxygen and will store it until O2 levels in the body drop with intense exercise

-This allows it to provide oxygen when levels are very low (e.g. in a respiring muscle) and so delays anaerobic respiration and lactic acid formation
