Answer:
RBCs' production is controlled by erythropoietin.
Mature RBCs are released into the bloodstream after approximately seven days RBCs are produced in the bone marrow
Explanation:
The hormone erythropoietin is produced and released in the bloodstream by peritubular interstitial cells of kidneys. The function of erythropoietin is to increase the number of the precursors of red blood cells and thereby to stimulate the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. When the oxygen supply to body cells is reduced, the hormone erythropoietin stimulates the development of proerythroblasts into reticulocytes and thereby increases the RBC production.
RBCs are produced by the process of erythropoiesis and take about seven days to become mature and to be released in circulation to serve the function of oxygen delivery. The maturation of RBCs also includes the loss of most of the organelles such as the nucleus and mitochondria to accommodate hemoglobin protein. The life span of circulating RBCs is about 100-120 days.

Explanation:
There is a proper mechanism of controlling the levels of various kinds of hormones and chemicals in our body called as positive feedback and negative feedback.
In a very simple language you can understand it as whenever there is a release of a particular hormone or chemical inside the body in very huge amount then the negative feedback of the body is activated the production of that particular hormone or chemical is stopped and vice -versa for negative feedback.
Explanation:positive feedback and negative both the feedback mechanism are achieved to maintain the proper homeostasis.
Example: release of clotting factor after blood loss is a positive feedback and a hormone is released and then suddenly there is a increase in hormone b, then the amount of hormone a will decrease this is a negative feedback.
Answer:
The correct answer is b) asexually reproducing organisms, but not sexually reproducing organisms, pass all mutations to their offspring.
Explanation:
In asexually reproducing organisms all the mutation is passed to the offspring so the offspring are identical to the parents. Daughter cells contain all the genes that are present in the parent, therefore, in asexually reproducing organisms mutation leads to more evolutionary change.
In sexual reproduction, the offspring get half genes from male parents and half from female parent so a parent does not pass all the mutation in the offspring and in sexual reproduction selection pressure eliminate those offspring that have bad mutation so that the wrong mutation can not pass to next generation.
Therefore the correct answer is b.
Build several models of his tree house out of different materials, and see which model holds up best to wind, water, and ice.
The given question says that a student has constructed a model of cellular transport using fences and several gates.
This model can be used to demonstrate the cellular transport.
The gates of the fences can be supposed as the protein pumps and the other fence demonstrates the lipid bilayer.
Let’s suppose in the fence, there are many cattles, and outside, there are less cattles, but the student open the gate and bring more cattles inside the fence. In this case, the transport of the cattles is similar to the active transport of the molecules using protein pumps. At cellular level, the energy for the active transport is provided by ATP molecules.
Now, let’s say, the student wants to feed the cattles with some nutrition rich food, which can help in maintaining the health of the cattles. The student fills his car with the cattle food and he enters inside the fence through gates. In this case, the food was not present in the fence, but was abundant in the outside environment, so, the diffusion would occur. But food cannot come self, without help of others, so, the movement is facilitated by the car, as it is done by the carrier proteins. Hence, it is an example of facilitated diffusion.
