Answer:

a. Hormones can persist much longer than electrical signals

Explanation:

Althought hormonal response is slower than electrical signals it affects a large number of organs and sistems. Example: electrical signals are for the openening or closing channels of sodium/potassium wich causes ionic differences on the cells producing quick reponses like movement or blood pressure changes. Meanwhile hormonal response control larger sistems and more complex process like pregnancy

barxatty [35]
<span>Proteins are large biological molecules consisting of one or more chains of amino acids.  Proteins differ from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is decided by the nucleotide sequence of their make-up, and which usually results in folding of the protein into a three-dimensional structure that determines its job. 
    </span><span>Nucleic acids are linear polymers (chains) of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three things: a purine , nitrogenous base a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.  
    </span><span>
 Basically Proteins are chains of amino acids, nucleic acids are chains of nucleosides (base+sugar+phosphate), and the sequence of nucleic acid results in the specific sequence of amino acids in the protein, finnally determining its shape and function. </span>

In a particular family, one parent has Type A blood, the other has Type B. They have four children. One has Type A, one has Type
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Parental genotypes: AO & BO

Children genotypes: AB, AO, BO, and OO

Explanation:

In the human blood group system, more than two types of alleles are present that lead to the existence of four blood groups in the human population.

Here, A and B alleles are co-dominant while the O allele is recessive to both A and B alleles in the ABO system.

The cross depicting the genotypes of children is

IA IO

IB    IAIB    IBIO

IO   IAIO   IOIO

In this cross, we get the same result as given in the question -

One parent has A and the other has B type blood while the children have all four types of blood groups One has Type A, one has Type B, one has Type AB, and the last has Type O. It is possible only when parents are heterozygous in their genotypes and not expressing codominance.

vfiekz [6]

The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs on each side of your spine<span>, under your ribs and behind your belly. Each kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long, roughly the size of a large fist. It goes to the kidneys to extract water from the excretory system and put it back into the blood. Kidneys filter your blood. They eliminate wastes, control the body's fluid balance, and hang onto the right levels of electrolytes. All of the blood in your body passes through them quite a few times a day.</span>
