A pathway that tends to slow down a process is called a negative feedback loop.

<h3>What we know about these loops. </h3>
  • These loops function to reduce the rate a which a process occurs.
  • Being a feedback loop means that they take in stimuli from the environment of the cell in order to affect the rate of production of a compound.
  • A negative feedback loop will activate when the concentration of the compound being produced is too high.
  • In response, the negative loop will reduce the rate of production temporarily.

Therefore, we can confirm that a pathway that tends to slow down a process is called a negative feedback loop.

Plantlike photosynthesis that releases O2 occurs in
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Cyanobacteria. (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Cyanobacteria are prokaryotes, are a phylum of bacteria. They are also called as blue-green algae and obtain their energy through the process of photosynthesis. They are commonly found in fresh water and terrestrial environment such as land, in rocks even in animal cells (fur).

Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic (oxygenic) bacteria. They harvest the energy of sun, absorb carbon dioxide and release O2. Cyanobacteria also contain chlorophyll such as plants and algae and convert carbon dioxide to sugar through the process of carbon fixation.

Cyanobacteria lack nucleus and other organelles like found in algae and plants. Instead of these they have double outer cell membrane and folded inner thylakoid member which are used in the process of photosynthesis.

Drinking alcoholic or caffeinated beverages increases urine output more than drinking an equivalent amount of water.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

A) ADH secretion decreases. B) Urine osmolarity decreases.

Explanation:

Antidiuretic Hormone or ADH is responsible for the reabsorption of water through the kidneys.

A) Drinking alcoholic and/or caffeinated beverages decreases the release and effect of ADH so the water does not get absorbed as much as it should, which in turn results in more urination.

B) Osmolarity is a term used to express the concentration of a solution in terms of a certain particle. Since less ADH secretion results in more water being in the urine, this lowers the concentration of the urine. So urine osmolarity would be decreased.

I hope this answer helps.
