Q. A person’s blood glucose level fluctuates during the day, asrepresented in Figure 1. Two hormones, insulin and glucagon,are di

rectly involved in regulating the blood glucose level tomaintain a healthy level. Insulin acts to lower the blood glucoselevel, and glucagon acts to increase the blood glucose level.Which of the following best predicts what will happen to theblood glucose level if the person has another meal at 5 pm?Immediately after the meal, the blood Immediately after the meal. the blood. glucose level will decrease because of the . glucose level will increase, and then insulinincrease in glucagon levels. will be secreted to counter the increase.Several hours after the meal, the blood The blood glucose level Will not change after. . the 5 pm. meal because the person hasglucose level wull Increase sharply because of. . . . already consumed two meals and the bloodan Increase In the amount of glucagon .secreted glucose level has been adjusted to a steady.' state level.

Answer:

If the person has another meal after 5 pm, the glucose level in the blood will increase, and the insulin level too.

Several hours after the meal, the glucose levels will decrease, and the glucagon levels will increase.

Explanation:

When a person ingests another meal after 5 p.m, the glucose levels in the blood will increase, as the body does not need all that glucose right now the insulin levels in the blood will increase to store glucose for later. The glucagon levels after a meal are very low because the aim is to store glucose not use it.

Several hours after the meal, the body needs the energy to keep operating so it will use the glucose that was stored, to do this, the levels of glucagon in blood have to increase and release the glucose, and the levels of insulin in blood have to decrease.

BlackZzzverrR [31]
The correct answer is "transmission electron microscope".

The transmission electron microscope can magnify the organelles of the cell clearly; as in light microscopes wherein most organelles cannot be visualized. TEM works by using a beam of electrons to pass through a specimen to make a clear image. Because of its superior magnification, mitochondrial defects can be visualized easily.

Attached is a sample picture of a transmission electron microscope image of a mitochondria.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Sympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

The sympathetic nervous system of the autonomic division prepares the body for stress or emergency conditions by generating the “fight-or-flight” responses. The sympathetic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from the adrenal medulla to generate the set of physiological responses.

There is dilation of the pupil, and an increased rate of heartbeat and increased blood pressure. Other responses include dilation of airways and dilation of blood vessels that supply blood to skeletal muscles, heart muscles, liver, etc. Under the given emergency condition, the sympathetic nervous system of Meghan was activated to generate the fight or flight response.

Answer:

This question lacks options; the options are:

A) Artificial selection

B) Stabilizing selection

C) Disruptive selection

D) Directional selection

The answer is D) Directional selection

Explanation:

Changes in the environmenal condition affects the distribution of organisms phenotypes. Via this change, organisms with certain traits are naturally selected. The types of natural selection are; stabilizing, disruptive and directional.

Based on the description of the selection in this question, the type of selection is DIRECTIONAL. Directional mutation is that in which one of the two extreme phenotypes in a population is selected against while the other is favored by the occurrence of a natural environmental hazard. The distribution gradually shifts to favour one extreme over the other until the other unselected extreme gets extincted.

This is the case regarding a population of finches affected by drought caused by flood causing all their food source to disappear leaving only ant hills that certain finches with thin beaks can access. This environmental change favorably selects one extreme phenotype (finches with long thin beaks). Hence, a type of DIRECTIONAL selection

cluponka [151]
The nurse should assess the patient vital sign and notify the healthcare provider. For 2.5 hour after neck dissection, production of 40ml by the drainage is a bit excessive. There might be a bleeding in the site of operation that becomes the source of the drainage. Change dressing will not do anything. Applying pressure can be done if the site of bleeding is known.
