Stimulation of glucose production and release into circulation to provide a quick fuel source for muscle tissue so that the body is readied for action during a stress event.
Option B.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Cortisol is a steroid group of hormone that is secreted from the Adrenal Cortex from the zona fasciculata. It's the middle layer of Adrenal Cortex. Cortisol helps in different functions of the body that includes the suppression of immune system, increasing the blood sugar level, gluconeogenesis, metabolism of fat, and proteins. This hormone helps in the gluconeogenesis which helps to produce glucose from non glucose sources. The primary sources include the fats and proteins and the glycogen reserve in liver and muscles. Thus increase in cortisol levels help in the retaining glucose levels in stress or hypoglycemia.
Cervix
Janine recently had surgery on the neck, or narrow lower portion, of her uterus. Janine's surgery was performed on the cervix.
The cervix is the narrow neck-like passage that forms the lower portion of the uterus in the human female reproductive system. The cervix joins the vagina and uterus and it is mainly made up of fibromuscular tissue. The two major parts of the cervix are ectocervix and endocervix. During menstrual cycle, the cervix opens a bit to allow the passage of menstrual flow. The cervix also dilates largely to allow the passage of baby during childbirth.
Water molecules would probably be it since they are in water and they are made up of two hydrogen and one oxygen.
