Answer:
Thyroid hormones
Explanation:
Animals and people exposed to pesticides such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, have shown to be affected by their effect on the thyroid. These chemicals can produce endocrine alterations acting as thyroid disrupters. They affect many mechanisms in the organisms such as inhibition of thyroid iodine uptake, <u><em>interference with the thyroid hormone receptor</em></u>, binding to transport proteins, among others. They cause toxicity in the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.
There are many studies that associate thyroid diseases with exposure to organochloride pesticides. Significant alteration in the TSH, T3, and T4 levels have been expressed by people directly or indirectly exposed to the chemicals.
Answer:
C. cell- tissue- organ- organ- system
Answer:
(A). Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity, and asexual reproduction can be more rapid.
Explanation:
Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction, which involves formation of new organisms by combination of genetic information from two organisms of different sexes. The major advantage of sexual reproduction is to develop genetic diversity as new organism is produced by mixing up genetic material of both the parents.
On the other hand, asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent having identical genetic makeup as present in parent cell. One of the major advantage of asexual reproduction is to produce high number of offspring in less time as it is more rapid than sexual reproduction.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
