The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
A. Merocrine gland
B. Apocrine gland
C. Salivary gland
D. Holocrine gland
Answer:
D. Holocrine gland
Explanation:
Exocrine glands are the organs or the subcellular structures which secrete a substance which is excreted out of the body.
The exocrine glands are different from the endocrine glands as their secreted products are released out of the body which is not in the case of endocrine glands.
The wax is secreted by the sebaceous glands by the production of cells that break along the base of the garland with substance into the ductal system by the exocrine glands called Holocrine glands.
Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
Holocrine glands will release whole broken open cells into their ductal system. These cells contain the stores of substance to be released by the gland. This method of secretion requires frequent cell turnover and replacement.
Answer:
5. All magnesium atoms have the same number of neutrons
Explanation:
Magnesium (Mg) is a chemical element. Its atomic number (Z) is 12 (number of protons in the nucleus of the Mg atom).
The Magnesium has three stable isotopes: 24Mg, 25Mg and 26Mg. All these isoforms have 12 protons in their atoms (same atomic number), however they vary in the mass number of the atom (M).
The mass number of the atom (M) is equal to the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Based on this information we can know how many neutrons each isotope has
24 Mg = 12 protones + 12 neutrons
25Mg = 12 protones + 13 neutrons
26Mg = 12 protones + 14 neutrons
In this way we conclude that <u>not all magnesium atoms have the same number of neutrons</u>
Genes encode proteins and proteins dictate cell function. Therefore, the thousands of genes expressed in a particular cell determine what that cell can do. Moreover, each step in the flow of information from DNA to RNA to protein provides the cell with a potential control point for self-regulating its functions by adjusting the amount and type of proteins it manufactures.
At any given time, the amount of a particular protein in a cell reflects the balance between that protein's synthetic and degradative biochemical pathways. On the synthetic side of this balance, recall that protein production starts at transcription (DNA to RNA) and continues with translation (RNA to protein). Thus, control of these processes plays a critical role in determining what proteins are present in a cell and in what amounts. In addition, the way in which a cell processes its RNA transcripts and newly made proteins also greatly influences protein levels.
There are so many examples for that in different areas, like organic germanium compounds experiment carried out in our lab recently.

I’d say conical shape- coniferous trees are known for this shape.
