Answer: exocrine glands

Explanation: Exocrine gland secrete substances to an epithelial surface through a channel.

The sebaceous and sweat glands associated with the skin also secrete substance to skin surfaces via ducts/ channels and are classified as endocrine gland. There are two glands in the human body Exocrine gland and Endocrine gland.

Endocrine gland secrete substance into the bloodstream directly. Examples of exocrine glands are sweat, salivary, mammary, sebaceous, and mucous.

liver and pancreas are both exocrine and endocrine glands simultaneously.

As exocrine gland, the liver secrete bile and the pancrease secrete pancreatic juice into the gastrointestinal tract through channels. While as endocrine gland they secrete other substances directly into the bloodstream.

A mutant strain of yeast is able to produce 2 ATP for each glucose molecule digested in the absence of oxygen. What makes this s
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Normally, under anaerobic condition in yeast, pyruvate produced from glycolysis leads to the production of ethanol as shown below.

pyruvate ⇒ acetaldehyde + NADH ⇒ ethanol + NAD

The pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde by the enzyme, pyruvate decarboxylase. It should be NOTED that carbon dioxide is released in this step. The acetaldehyde produced in the "first step" is then converted to ethanol by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase. It must be noted from the above that the steps are irreversible.

If a mutated strain of yeast is unique because it does not produce alcohol and lactic acid (which is referred to as toxic acid in the question); thus having a high level of pyruvate because of the presence of a novel enzyme.   <u>The function of this novel enzyme will most likely be the conversion of acetaldehyde in the presence of carbondioxide back to pyruvate; thus making that step reversible</u>. This could be a possible explanation for the high level of pyruvate present in the yeast.

juin [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Statistical Hypothesis".

Explanation:

Given the example, the breeder wants to find the relationship between the two variables which are the effects of bredding and the face length of the boxer breed. He/She is using the statistics of the face length from the years 1915 and 2015 so the type of hypothesis that should be used is "Statistical Hypothesis" which is used when the hypothesis can be verified statistically. I hope this answer helps.
