Nitric oxide is a paracrine signal molecule because NO
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

C. is unstable, with a short half life

Explanation:

Paracrine hormones are the hormones that act on neighboring cells only. These hormones or chemicals are largely unstable and have a brief life as do not visit the distantly placed target cells. For instance, somatostatin is secreted by D cells of the pancreas. It acts in a paracrine manner and inhibits the discharge of hormones from the neighboring beta and alpha cell.

Likewise, one of the functions of unstable NO gas is to serve as a vasodilator. It is released by epithelium cells and serves to dilate arterioles and relax precapillary sphincters. Then it is degraded.

Part B: Research (11 points) In part B you will be doing some research on desertification.
Goryan [66]
Okay so northern Africa and the Sahara desert is the best example of desertification.
2 ways humans have contributed to that is: 1) pastoral nomadism 2) little to no settlements to increase water supply 

how it impacted the environment: so now the environment there is sandy, only organisms adapted for those extreme environment can live there ex. camel, cactus, etc., 

how it impacted quality of life: quality of life diminished, not enough water to sufficiently feed the populations, people live in extreme poverty, people are moving away, and the climate is very dry and hot, pretty much not a place anyone would want to live

In a particular species of frogs, black spots are a dominant trait and their absence is a recessive trait. In a population of fr
kipiarov [429]

The expression which is the correct way to calculate the frequency of the dominant allele is 134/200. Thus, the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Allelic frequency?</h3>

The allelic frequency may be defined as the sum total of all the alleles of a gene in a population. It represents the overall genetic diversity within a population.

The allelic frequency is calculated by the formula when the genotypes are given in number. It is as follows:

2 × Number of Purebred dominant + Number of heterozygous/ 2× Total number of individuals in a population.

∴ Allelic frequency of dominant allele = 2 × 50 + 34/ 2× 100 = 134/200 = 0.67.

The allelic frequency of the Dominant allele is 0.67 while the allelic frequency of the recessive allele is 0.33.

Therefore, it is well described above.
