The answer is D. Supplying oxygenated blood to the arteries that travel to all major body parts.
Pituitary dwarfism is caused by problems arising from the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland, also called the hypophysis, is a gland at the base of the brain that produces many different hormones. This gland is divided into the anterior (front) and posterior (back) halves. The anterior pituitary produces six hormones: growth hormone, adrenocorticotropin (corticotropin), thyroid stimulating hormone (thyrotropin), prolactin, follicle stimulating hormone, and lutenizing hormone. The posterior pituitary gland only produces two hormones: antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) and oxytocin.
The growth process begins in the lower part of the forebrain in a small organ called the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus releases hormones that regulate the production of other hormones. When the hypothalamus releases growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), the anterior pituitary is stimulated to release growth hormone (GH). Growth hormone then acts on the liver and other tissues and stimulates them to secrete insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 directly promotes the development of bone and muscle, causing bones to grow in length, and muscles to increase protein synthesis (make more protein).
Since growth is a complex phenomenon, it may be slowed down or stopped by abnormalities arising at any point in the process. Thus, dwarfism can result if there is a deficiency in any of these hormones, if there is a failure in the receptor cells receiving the hormonal stimuli, or if the target cells are unable to respond.
At its most basic, pituitary dwarfism results from decreased production of hormones by the anterior pituitary. When none of the hormones of the anterior pituitary are adequately produced, this is called panhypopituitarism. A common form of pituitary dwarfism is due to deficiencies in the production of growth hormone (GH). When less GH than normal is produced during childhood, an individual's arms, legs, and other structures continue to develop in normal proportions, but at a decreased rate.

A transfer of energy in practice means that one organism eats the other organism, so here we have to ask whether the first organism is eaten by the second.
A. from rabbits to green plants
Plants don't eat rabbits so -no!
B. from weasels to eagles
-this is the correct answer! Eagles do prey on weasels and eat them whenever they can
C. from eagles to rabbits
Rabbits don't eat eagles -so, no!
D. from green plants to weasels
Weasels are predators so they don't eat plants!
The correct answer is "false".
The urine comes from the kidneys and will pass through the renal pelvices where they will form the ureters. The urine in the ureters will eventually flow to the urinary bladder where it is stored. Eventually, in urination, the urine is expelled from the urethra.
The fructose 1-phosphate pathway can deplete intracellular phosphate/ ATP.
Explanation:
Fructose 1-phosphate is a derivative of fructose. For understanding in better way fructose metabolism has three enzymes. Fructose- bisphosphate aldolase B, fructokinase and Adenosine triphosphate. These all are present in liver and kidney of human as well rat. In liver rapidly fructose is change to fructose 1 through fructokinase.
After it is converted into trioses dihydroxyacetone phosphate as well as glyceraldehyde through aldolase. With glucose metabolism Fructose get synergistic effect
