Gigantism
and acromegaly are the two diseases resulting from hyper function of the
pituitary gland.
Gigantism
and acromegaly are conditions that are nearly always due to a pituitary adenoma
that is because of excessive secretion of a growth hormone called hypersomatotropism.
<span>If GH
hypersecretion begins in childhood, before closure of the epiphyses pituitary
gigantism occurs. It is a rare condition where skeletal growth velocity and
ultimate stature are increased, but little bony deformity occurs. However,
soft-tissue swelling occurs, and the peripheral nerves are enlarged. Hypogonadotropic
hypogonadism and deferred puberty is also normally present, resulting in a
eunuchoid habitus. While Acromegaly
occurs after the growth plate cartilage fuses in adulthood, it is the same
disorder of IGF-I excess but in acromegaly, an unadorned disease that morbidity
and mortality rates are high because its often diagnosed late, where the
disease is associated with cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory
disorders and malignancies. </span>
<span>Extraction of DNA is important because of many reasons. With the ability to remove DNA from an organism, scientists can observe, manipulate, and classify the DNA.
Scientists can identify genetic disorders or diseases from studying DNA.
Scientists can possibly find cures for these causes by manipulating or experimenting with this DNA.
Scientists can accurately sort organisms into classes because of DNA uniqueness. If we didn't have DNA extraction, it would be a lot harder to decide which organisms are different from each other.
Scientists can genetically engineer some organisms to produce beneficial things. A common example is that of insulin. Scientists can genetically engineer insulin production so that people with diabetes can live longer.</span>
Answer:
The swim bladder is located in the body cavity and is derived from an outpocketing of the digestive tube. It contains gas (usually oxygen) and functions as a hydrostatic, or ballast, organ, enabling the fish to maintain its depth without floating upward or sinking.
Explanation:
Answer:
I think that birds have different bill lengths because of their habitats and their diet. Also natural selection and evolution has also played a factor due to the fact that birds have not always looked the way that they do now, for example the Archaeopteryx a bird that lived around the time of the dinosaurs had a shorter and more powerful bill to grind insects and small mammals
Explanation:
Answer:GGATCGA
Explanation:
The complementary double helix of the DNA are antipararell to each other.
Chargaff's rule state that Adenine always pairs with thymine (double bond) and Cytosine always pairs with guanine (triple bond).
Therefore if a DNA molecule is CCTAGCT, then the sequence on the complementary strand of DNA will be GGATCGA as written below
5' CCTAGCT 3'
3' GGATCGA 5'
