This organ is the pancreas. It is a very small endocrine gland measuring 6 inches that is located on the left abdomen near the duodenum of the small intestine and the spleen. The pancreas is a very important organ that secretes digestive enzymes like:
pancreatic amylase - breaks down polysaccarides and glycogen into simple sugars
trypsin- breaks down proteins into amino acids
pancreatic lipase - breaks down triglycerides to fatty acids and monoglycerides
ribonuclease - digests nucleic acids
It also secretes insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar levels.
The answer is A)<span> the desired gene is inserted into the genomes of the pork.
</span>
The techniques of genetic engineering are used to introduce hybrid genes for some desired substance or protein or trait into other organisms. Here, the desired gene is inserted into pork's genome and as a result, it has a <span>higher flesh-to-bone ratio</span><span>.</span>
<span>- B) is not the right answer because it is not necessary to change all the genes in the pork genome or it will be transformed into totally different organism.</span>
<span>- C) is not the right answer because the pork does not have plasmids.</span>
Based on the given scenario, Jill is
experiencing sensory adaptation. A sensory adaptation is where sensory system
that a person acquires has ability to change in a way that they could adapt in
certain situations. It is seen above as the hot water made her feel
uncomfortable as she does not intend to sit on the tub while it is still hot
and later on, she manage to be comfortable with the hot water after her sensory
system has adopted to the stimulus which is the hot water in the tub.
The sensory adaptation makes a person’s sensory system feel a change in
response of a factor that will affect the system into leading it cope up with
the factor affecting it.
Answer:
7
Explanation:
There are always half the chromosomes in sex cells.
Answer:<em> Living organisms must maintain a constant internal environment while living in a constantly changing external environment. </em>
Explanation: Maintaining the internal environment is important because the processes that keep the cell alive can only take place under certain conditions. There are different processes that occur in the body to maintain the constant internal environment such as diffusion, osmosis, homeostasis, active transport, passive transport, endocytosis, exocytosis, etc. Homeostasis helps to maintain an equilibrium of an internal environment.
