The answer to this question would be: decrease, decrease

Anorexia is a mental disease that causes the patient to experience fear of gaining weight. In this case, the patient will try to limit their food intake(in an extreme way) or induce vomit to remove the food. 
The effect should be same as starvation or malnutrition. As the food intake decreased, blood glucose is decreased too. The body adapts by lowering the basal metabolic rate so it loses less energy. Insulin and leptin will be decreased too as it was not needed.

How is it that a code consisting of only four letters as in dna can specify all the different parts of an organism and account f
LekaFEV [45]

The genetic code can be defined as a set of rules used to encode information from genetic material (DNA or RNA ) into proteins. There are sequences of nucleotide triplets, -codons which specify which amino acid will be added next during translation (protein synthesis). Genetic code consists of 64 codons and this means that some amino acids are specified by more than one codon.

Genetic code has a role to determine amino acid sequence of protein (primary structure of protein). Location and the function of all those synthesized proteins is determinated by regulatory genomic regions (gene regulatory codes).

Proteins perform a wide range of functions within organisms such as catalysing metabolic reactions, DNA replication, stimuli response, structure role, transport role. So, all the diversity of organisms on this planet is due to protein variety.

if a flower were orange would it more likely be pollinated by insects or by the wind give at least one reason for your answer
yan [13]

It would more likely to be pollinated by insects.


This is because the bright color of the petals can attract insects towards the flower thus sticking some pollen grains and transfer them to the stigma (female part of flower).


On the other hand, the color of petals do not really have effect on the wind pollination. Therefore this explains why wind pollinated flowers usually have small or dull colored petals.
