Hormones are chemical molecules produced by endocrine glands. One such endocrine gland is the thyroid gland, which synthesizes t

he thyroid hormone, which in turn affects the heart muscles. Which two statements describe the probable reason for the function of the hormone?
1.The cells in the heart have specific receptors that allow for the intake of hormones.
2.The heart and the endocrine glands have the exact same types of cells.
3.All cells make the same types of hormones.
4.Thyroid hormones show their effect on the heart by means of specialized cells. 5.Thyroid cells and cardiac cells have different DNA.

The right answer is 1 and 4

A hormone is a biologically active chemical substance, synthesized by a glandular cell secreted into the internal environment where it circulates, acting remotely and by blood on receptors specific to a target cell. It transmits a message in chemical form and therefore plays a role of messenger in the body.

The emitting organ thus acts at a distance on all of the target organs of the organism or of neighboring organisms of the same species, or even of symbiotic organisms whose receptors are activated in contact with specific hormones (lasting interactions).

α-type receptors of thyroid hormones (TRα, NR1A1) are widely expressed in all cells but particularly cardiac and skeletal cells.

Ilya [14]
In eukaryotes, <em>replication takes place in the nucleus</em> as prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus and <em>replication takes place in the cytoplasm</em>. The nucleus of the eukaryotes is the location where genetic material (DNA) is found; in prokaryotes, the genetic material is condensed in the cytoplasm called the nucleoid. There are multiple replication forks or <em>multiple origins of replication </em>in eukaryotes in contrast to prokaryotes which only has <em>one origin of replication. </em>Lastly, replication in eukaryotes <em>occurs at multiple points along the chromosome; </em>in contrast with prokaryotes where it <em>occurs at just one point on the chromosome.</em>

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The answer is B. Some organic molecules, including amino acids, could have been produced from chemical reactions on early Earth.

Explanation:

Miller-Urey Experiment:

The Miller-Urey experiment was an attempt to explain the origin of life on Earth. Miller-Urey simulated the primordial soup i.e. the environment of primitive Earth to prove the spontaneous generation of organic molecules. The conditions they introduced included:

  1. A methane-ammonia-hydrogen and water mixture that exactly simulated the primordial soup.
  2. A spark of 70,000 volts that simulated lightening.
  3. A temperature of 800 degree Celsius.

Observations:

  • After running for 18 days, the final solution was examined for presence of organic molecules.
  • Miller-Urey observed that most of the methane and ammonia had been consumed and the mixture contained carbon monoxide and nitrogen.
  • The solution further contained 25 amino acids (mainly, glycine, alanine and aspartic acid) , several fatty acids , hydroxy acids  and amide products.

The experiment concluded that simple organic compounds such as amino acids could have been formed through spontaneous generation under the Earth's primitive environmental conditions.

Lynna [10]
When cells reach their size limitations one of two things will happen: they will either stop growing and split into two separate cells. Cell division can be both good and bad.
