Answer:

D

Explanation:

It is the endoplasmic reticulum and the ribosomes of the specialized cells in the pancreas that make insulin. Remember, most human cells make proteins at the protein factory called the ribosome. This ribosome is either free floating in the cytoplasm, or is attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

The genes for making insulin lie in the DNA of these pancreatic cells. Normally, they should only be turned on inside these particular cells.

When they are turned on, RNA is transcribed and then protein.

That particular protein is insulin.

Remember insulin acts as a hormone.

By the way,the beta cells in the islets of Langerhans make insulin.

What happens to excess carbohydrates in animals?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The correct answer would be "They are stored as fat".

In animals, the excess of carbohydrates or glucose is first converted into glycogen (polysaccharide) through the process called glycogenesis. It is then stored in the liver and skeletal muscles.

When glycogen reservoirs are saturated, excess carbohydrates, as well as proteins, are converted into fats which are then majorly stored in adipose tissues.

Adipose tissues serve as the long-term energy storage reservoirs.

Which of the following products of the light reactions of photosynthesis is consumed during the Calvin cycle? A) oxygen B) water
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

NADPH

Explanation:

Light-dependent reactions form the NADPH when the electrons from the water molecule are passed from PS II to PS I and finally to the NADP+. The enzyme NADP reductase catalyzes the reduction of NADP+ into NADPH. The enzyme is located on the stromal side of the thylakoid membranes and therefore, the NADPH is released into the stroma. Stroma is the site for the reaction of the Calvin cycle. During the Calvin cycle, the reduction of 3-phosphoglycerate into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate uses NADPH as the electron donor.

Animals are associated with
klio [65]

Animals are associated with <u>phyla</u> and plants are associated with <u>divisions</u>

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are millions of organisms in the world. They were then subdivided based on the similarity between each groups.  

The Animal kingdom range from complex to simple animals. The kingdom Animalia is further subdivided into Phyla. The phyla is further classified into vertebrates and invertebrates.  

Plants acquire nutrition by photosynthesis. They are autotrophs preparing their own food. Animals can’t prepare their own food hence they directly or indirectly depend on the plants for food. The plant kingdom is subdivided to plant divisions.
