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.

Nitella [24]
<span>Expanding red giant stars will swallow too-close planets. In the solar system, the sun will engulf Mercury and Venus, and may devour Earth, as well. So logically concluding, the answer must be that it would devour the planets whole, and there will be no rotation, (assuming this is a trick question)</span>

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.

Why is understanding the structure of DNA and how it is replicated important? List some technologies and practical applications
UNO [17]

The discovery of DNA, as well as understanding of its functioning and structure, may well be the most essential findings of the last century.  

The impact of the discovery of DNA on medical and scientific advancement has been huge, whether it involves the manufacturing and creation of drugs to cure the deadly diseases or to identify the genes, which stimulate several of the diseases.  

The understanding of DNA and its structural composition has led to the discovery of various technologies that helps in the fields like genetic testing, identifying viruses, crime investigation, production of genetically modified organisms, and various others.

Suppose that a scientist deletes the AAUAAA consensus sequence, the poly(A) tail, or the 5' cap from pre‑mRNAs in an mRNA. She t
Andrej [43]

Answer:

<h2>AAUAA deletion- (B ) </h2><h2> </h2><h2>Poly(A) tail deletion- (C) </h2><h2> </h2><h2>5' cap deletion-  (A) </h2>

Explanation:

(A) introns are not removed from the pre-mRNA due to 5' deletion;

(B) the pre-mRNA is not cleaved at the cleavage site due to AAUAA deletion

(C) the mRNA is not transported to the cytoplasm due to poly A tail deletion;

AAUAA deletion:  if we delete the AAUAA  sequence then there is the change of sequence of pre- mRNA that the pre-mRNA is not cleaved at the cleavage site .

Poly(A) tail deletion: Poly(A) tail is the long tail of Adenine in the 3' end of mRNA, after the deletion of Poly(A) tail, it affects the transport of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and  the mRNA is not transported to the cytoplasm if tail is deleted.

5' cap deletion; the effect of 5' cap deletion is that introns are not removed from the pre-mRNA. The process of intron removing and exon joining is called RNA splicing.
