During body temperature regulation, temperature receptors in the skin communicate information to the brain (the control center) which signals the effectors: blood vessels and sweat glands in the skin.
Answer:
b: 8;8
Explanation:
Mitotic or meiotic cell division constitute the m phase of the cell cycle. At the end of the m phase, the new cells enter the interphase stage of the cell cycle. The interphase is further sub-divided into;
- <em>the
phase,</em> - <em>the
phase,</em> - <em>the S phase; and</em>
- <em>the
phase</em>.
The
phase is essentially a resting phase. Cells that do not need to divide except when necessary move into this phase after exiting the m phase.
Actively dividing cells enter the
phase after exiting the m phase. Cell development and growth takes place. From there, the cells enter the S phase where DNA replication/synthesis takes place. The cells then enter the
phase where proteins are synthesized in preparation for division or m phase.
At the S phase, the amount of DNA a cell carries is doubled but the chromosome number remains the same. For example, if a cell enters the S phase with 2 g of DNA containing 10 chromosomes, at the end of S phase, the amount of DNA would have come 4 g while the number of chromosomes will remain 10.
Hence, if the average amount of DNA in the assayed cells immediately after mitosis is 4 picograms, the amount would be 8 picograms at the end of S phase and will still remains 8 picograms at the end of
phase.
The correct option is b.
Answer:
Glucose
Oxygen gas
Explanation:
Glucose is a non-metallic carbohydrate substance. It is the monomeric unit of the digestion of complex carbohydrate.
This compound is very important to all lives. The energy needed to power the activities in the body are derived from the compound.
It is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
Also, oxygen gas is used by animals for their metabolic processes. The gas combines with glucose to release chemical energy for use in the body. This molecule is purely made up of two atoms of oxygen that are covalently bonded together.
Anytime we breathe, we take in oxygen for use in our body
