Answer:

The correct answer is 3rd statement.

Explanation:

A kind of sweat gland that discharges water from the surface of the body at the time of high internal temperatures are known as exocrine sweat glands. This water gets evaporates and results in the cooling of the skin surface. When the temperature of the body enhances, the sweat glands along with water also discharges electrolytes from the surface of the body.  

The sweat glands also exhibit antibacterial properties, as they discharge dermcidin that interferes with the sticking of the microbes with the skin surface. The exocrine sweat glands do not secrete lipids, thus, they lack the tendency to condition the skin surrounding it. Hence, the given statement 3 is incorrect.

Answer:

The activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase is prevented by caffeine. The caffeine prevents further dissociation of cAMP, which eventually increases the response within the body. The activity of neurotransmitters, that is, of noradrenaline or epinephrine, gets increased due to enhancement in response.  

This further enhances the activity of the heart, the rate of muscle contractions, blood pressure that further helps in delivering more oxygen to the brain, and other parts of the body. Thus, the inhibition of the enzyme cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase helps the athletes to prevent the wall.

When you're old enough to vote, will you be influenced by celebrity endorsements ? Why or why not?
liubo4ka [24]

Celebrity endorsers can influence the portion of the public (increasingly small) who otherwise do not have strong candidate preferences and pay so much attention to politics. If the celebrity has huge interest and knowledge of politics so i may get influenced.

<h3></h3><h3>When was celebrity endorsement started in United states?</h3>

Celebrity endorsements in the U.S.  were started in 1920, precisely a hundred years ago, with film stars publicly supporting candidate Warren G. Harding in the presidential election. From then on, many  other celebrities raised their political opinions among their fanbase for electoral candidate.

Celebrities themselves, by making an endorsement may risk losing a share of their audience and inviting public joke and anger.
