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.
The answer is A. RNA polymerase will be making an mRNA using a single DNA strand as a template. So, for example if the DNA strand is AGGCAGC the mRNA strand will be UCCGUCG.
U= uracil which replaces thymine in mRNA molecules.

Answer:
A- Acetylcholine is released by axon terminals of the motor neuron.
Explanation:
The general mechanism of muscle contraction can be explained as follows:
a) The action potential which is generated, travels along the motor nerve to its ends on muscle fiber (or motor end plate) at the neuro-muscular junction.
b) The nerve endings then secrete small amounts of neurotransmitter called acetylcholine.
c) The actylecholine binds to the receptors on the membrane of muscle fiber and opens the voltage gated sodium channels.
d) Opening of these channels leads to flow of large quantities of sodium ions into the muscle fiber which ultimately results in initiation of action potential in muscle fiber.
e) This action potential depolarizes the fiber including the T-tubules, triggering the release of calcium ions from sarcoplasmic reticulum.
f) The calcium ions thus released initiated the process of muscle contraction.
1. Define Chemosynthesis?
the synthesis of organic compounds by bacteria or other living organisms using energy derived from reactions involving inorganic chemicals, typically in the absence of sunlight.
2. List some organisms that undergo Chemosynthesis?
Chemoautotrophs, organisms that obtain carbon from carbon dioxide through chemosynthesis, are phylogenetically diverse, but also groups that include conspicuous or biogeochemically-important taxa include the sulfur-oxidizing gamma and epsilon proteobacteria, the Aquificae, the methanogenic archaea and the neutrophilic.
3. Which organisms conduct photosynthesis?
Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the oxygen content of the Earth's atmosphere, and supplies most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.
4. Define photosynthesis
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.
5. Type out the chemical equation of photosynthesis?
The photosynthesis equation is as follows: 6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy from light produces glucose and oxygen.
