The pancreas contains exocrine cells that secrete digestive enzymes into the ____________ , and clusters of endocrine cells called pancreatic islets, which secrete insulin and ____________ , to regulate blood glucose levels. When blood glucose levels are high, the pancreas secretes the hormone insulin, which causes the liver to remove excess glucose from the blood and to store it in the liver as ____________ . When this stored form of glucose is low, the liver converts ____________ from fats and amino acids to glucose molecules. Most pancreatic cells produce pancreatic juice, which contains ____________ , to help neutralize the stomach acid. Pancreatic amylase digests ____________ , trypsin digests protein, and lipase digests fat. The major functions of the liver include: removing or detoxifying harmful substances from the blood; storing glycogen, ____________ , and several vitamins; synthesizing many proteins found in the blood ____________ ; and regulating blood cholesterol. Another function of the liver is to produce bile, which is a yellowish-green color because it contains bilirubin, a breakdown product of ____________ . Bile also contains bile salts, which serve to emulsify ____________ in the small intestine.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - small intestine; glucagon, glycogen; glycerol, sodium bicarbonate; starch, iron, plasma, hemoglobin; fats.

Explanation:

The digestive enzymes are released in the small intestine by pancreatic cell, the cluster of these pancreatic exocrine cells called pancreatic islets that release insulin and glucagon hormones for controlling blood sugar level.

Insulin stores the excess amount of blood glucose in the liver as glycogen and in the case of low sugar glycerol is converted to glucose from fats. Pancreatic juice contains sodium bicarbonate to regulate acidity and the amylase enzyme helps in digesting starch. The liver stores various nutritional substances such as vitamins and iron and others and release them in blood plasma.

Researchers do an experiment to test the hypothesis that Douglas fir trees put more resources into reproduction when they are infected with a fungus that causes a fatal disease. They establish study plots in a group of 50-year-old Douglas fir where the disease is not present. At random, they infect half the trees with the disease-causing fungus. Then they measure how many cones and seeds are produced by infected versus uninfected trees

Answers

More infected than uninfected trees will die.

The overall process of photosynthesis can be written as the equation:
A. 6 glucose + 6 water --> 6 oxygen + 6 carbon dioxide + light

B. 6 water + 6 carbon dioxide (+ light) --> 6 oxygen + glucose

C. 6 oxygen + 6 water (+ light) --> 6 glucose + carbon dioxide

Answers

Answer:

B. 6 water + 6 carbon dioxide (+ light) --> 6 oxygen + glucose

Explanation:

Remember that in a chemical equation the reactants (input) are on the left and the products (output) are on the right. For photosynthesis to occur 3 different reactants are needed: water, carbon dioxide, and light. Note that because the light is not an element or molecule, it is sometimes written in paratheses or left out of the equation. Then, the products are glucose, which is the intended product, and oxygen, which is an unintentional byproduct that is released back to the atmosphere. Additionally, the equation for cellular respiration is the opposite of this, with the products as reactants and vice versa (except ATP is switched in for light).

Archaea (or extremophiles) like to live in extreme environments.
A. True

B. False

Answers

any different extremes: heat, cold, acid, base, salinity, pressure, and radiation. These different environmental conditions over time have allowed Archaea to evolve with their extreme environments so that they are adapted to them and, in fact, have a hard time acclimating to less extreme conditions

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

We could just split the two parts of "extremophile'' and we get the gist.

"extremo-" (from Latin extremus) means to the highest degree of something.

"-phile" (from Greek philia), means love.

As a result, the term means "loving being in the highest degree (or something like that)."

To explain things, archaea are adapted to these extreme environments (hence the name extremophiles), except for hyperthermophily. Fungi, for example, live in mining areas, which are acidic and metal enriched.

Electric current is the flow of ________ through a substance.

Answers

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

Answer:

A current is a flow of electrons for this to happen there must be a closed circuit.

- The electricity is nothing but a flow of free electrons present in the external surface of the electricity conducting substance.

The flow direction of this electron flow is also the direction of electricity flow.

- There is a type of electrical circuit which is known as the closed circuit. This circuit is completely connected with the two terminals of the battery and there are no hindrances in the path of electricity flow in these circuits. That's why current can only flow through these complete circuits.

Explain how the cell cycle is regulated.

Answers

Answer:

Two groups of proteins, called cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks), are responsible for the progress of the cell through the various checkpoints. ... Cyclins regulate the cell cycle only when they are tightly bound to Cdks.The cell cycle is controlled by a number of protein-controlled feedback processes. Two types of proteins involved in the control of the cell cycle are kinases and cyclins. Cyclins activate kinases by binding to them, specifically they activate cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK).

Explanation:

What are valence electrons?
A. the atomic mass

B. the atomic number

C. all of the electrons in an atom

D. electrons in the outermost energy level

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The simple answer is the electrons in the outermost energy level.

Hydrogen has 1 electron in the outermost energy level.

Magnesium has 2 so this tells you that magnesium has a charge of 2

Oxygen has 6  oxygen has a charge of - 2

Fluorine has 7

For most elements, the electrons in the most outer ring determine the valence of the element.

Notice that the non metals work differently than the metals. Mg may have a charge of 2 and that is the number of electrons in the valence right.

Oxygen is a non metal it has a charge of - 2. It gets 6 electrons by subtracting the number of its charge from 8.

Answer:

D. electrons in the outermost energy level

Explanation:

The valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level.

Another term for the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
A. The Calvin Cycle

B. Cellular respiration

C. The nitrogen cycle

Answers

Answer:

A. The Calvin Cycle

Explanation:

The light-independent reactions cover half of photosynthesis, with the other half being the light-dependent reactions. Another word for this process is the Calvin cycle. It is named after the biologist, Melvin C. Calvin, who discovered it. The Calvin cycle is responsible for turning carbon dioxide into glucose. It also requires no light, hence its other name. Additionally, because it is occasionally called the Calvin cycle, sometimes, the light-dependent reaction is simply called the light cycle.

Answer:

A. The Calvin Cycle

Explanation:

The Calvin Cycle is the another term for the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis. So, option (A) is the correct answer.
