Answer:
The correct answer is option d. "phosphorylation of glucose".
Explanation:
The phosphorylation of glucose is one of the most important catabolic reactions that allow to obtain energy from sugars. This reaction is the first step of glycolysis and avoid cells to lose sugars by diffusing back to its transporter. The phosphate used to phosphorylate glucose comes from the hydrolysis of one of the three phosphate of adenosine triphosphate. Therefore, phosphorylation of glucose is a processes where ATP hydrolysis is directly involved.
Ghrelin INCREASES APPETITE.
Ghrelin is an hormone which is majorly produced by the stomach. Other organs, which produces the hormone in small quantities include: the brain, the pancreas and the small intestines. The hormone has many functions, but its major function is to stimulate appetite, increase food intake and to promote fat storage.
In geology, the elastic-rebound theory is an explanation for how energy is released during an earthquake. As adjoining plates on the Earth's surface move in opposite directions, the rocks which span the opposing sides of the incipient fault are subjected to extreme shear stress.
The question is somewhat confusing. I would choose "none of the above" because none of the choices are blood vessels. However, the heart is the pump that moves blood through the network of blood vessels that distribute and collect materials throughout the body.
