Question: Which pituitary hormone causes liver cells to release somatomedins that increase the rate of uptake of amino acids by cells such as skeletal muscle fibers?

follicle-stimulating hormone

prolactin

thyroid-stimulating hormone

growth hormone

Answer:

growth hormone

Explanation:

Somatomedins are growth factors. The growth hormone makes the cells such as liver cells, skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to secrete the somatomedins. The somatomedins from the liver enter the bloodstream to reach the target cells. The somatomedins make the skeletal muscles, bones, etc. to absorb amino acids into the cells so as to facilitate protein synthesis. This growth factor also downregulates the breakdown of proteins. This is how growth hormone triggers the growth of muscles and soft tissues.

The Carbohydrates is processed into glucose after enzymes like salivary amylase acts on it from the chewing and in the stomach which produces glucose which makes it easily absorbable , proteins is processed into amino acids by the activity of hydrochloric acids and protease that processed it into amino acids, lipids is processed into fatty acids and glycerol by the activities of the enzymes lipase.

The minerals and vitamins present are in a way they can be absorbed.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) The success of a species depends on the number of offspring that survive long enough to reproduce.</em>

Explanation:

Some species of animals such as the octopus might give rise to many offspring, but these offspring might not survive due to different reasons. Only a few of them will be able to survive until the age where they can reproduce.

On the other hand, the survival rate of offspring which are formed in lesser numbers is more. These offspring are taken care of by their parents usually or are better adapted to live in the environment. Hence, their survival rate is more.

How many different arrangement of four bases into triplets can be made
dsp73
4^3 = 64

There are 64 ways to arrange the four bases (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine) into triplets (include repeats of bases as well, for e.g. AAT).

Just in case you are confused by my use of Thymine above, one thing to note is that Thymine will be replaced with Uracil in RNA.

Hope this helps! :)
