After going a long period of time without eating, the intestines release the hormone ghrelin into the bloodstream, which travels

to the brain and signals hunger. After eating breakfast, hydrochloric acid and mucus travels through ducts to reach the stomach from the gastric glands and helps break the food down.
What type of glands are the gastric glands?

A.
exocrine glands, because they release their contents into ducts
B.
endocrine glands, because they release their contents into ducts
C.
endocrine glands, because they release their contents into the bloodstream
D.
exocrine glands, because they release their contents into the bloodstream

<h3> Answer:</h3>

            Exocrine glands, because they release their contents into ducts.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

           Exocrine glands:

                           Exocrine glands are glands whose secretions pass into a system of ducts that lead ultimately to the exterior of the body. So the inner surface of the glands and the ducts that drain them are topologically continuous with the exterior of the body (the skin).

     Gastric glands , salivary glands and sweat glands etc are example of Exocrine glands.

Which component is more medial: the right lung or the tracheal bifurcation?
Snowcat [4.5K]
The more medial is the tracheal bifurcation.

In anatomy, we refer that structure is more medial than other when it's closer to the median plane which is in the midline of the body, that divides the body into left and right. The <span>trachea its "crossed" by that imaginary line, while both lungs are more to the sides.</span>

Using the sliding flament theory, explain (or draw) the process of sarcomere shortening. Start from the point where calcium woul
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

  1. Calcium binds to troponin C
  2. Troponin T moves tropomyosin and unblocks the binding sites
  3. Myosin heads join to the actin forming cross-bridges
  4. ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate and releases energy
  5. The energy is used to impulse myofilaments slide producing a power stroke
  6. ADP is released and a new ATP joins the myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament
  7. ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, starting a new cycle
  8. Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

Explanation:  

In rest, the tropomyosin inhibits the attraction strengths between myosin and actin filaments. Contraction initiates when an action potential depolarizes the inner portion of the muscle fiber. Calcium channels activate in the T tubules membrane, releasing <u>calcium into the sarcolemma.</u> At this point, tropomyosin is obstructing binding sites for myosin on the thin filament. When calcium binds to troponin C, troponin T alters the tropomyosin position by moving it and unblocking the binding sites. Myosin heads join to the uncovered actin-binding points forming cross-bridges, and while doing so, ATP turns into ADP and inorganic phosphate, which is released. Myofilaments slide impulsed by chemical energy collected in myosin heads, producing a power stroke. The power stroke initiates when the myosin cross-bridge binds to actin. As they slide, ADP molecules are released. A new ATP links to myosin heads and breaks the bindings to the actin filament.  Then ATP splits into ADP and phosphate, and the energy produced is accumulated in the myosin heads, which starts a new binding cycle to actin. Finally, Z-bands are pulled toward each other, shortening the sarcomere and the I-band, producing muscle fiber contraction.

This is an onion root tip at low power (100x). The cells are too small to distinguish individual phases. What phase do most of t
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Interphase

Explanation:

The phase in which most of the cells appear to be in is interphase.

This is so because cell's life is spent more in interphase and in this phase growth of cells and at the end their replication takes place. So cells get more time in interphase to grow and replicate, which makes more cells to appear to be in.

Hence, the correct answer is "Interphase".

If speciation occurred solely because of changes in chromosome counts between the original parents (who were 2n) and the offspri
Ket [755]

Answer:

Yes...This is an example of speciation by natural selection

Explanation:

As we know that natural selection always promote those evolutionary changes that are necessary. Changes that happen in chromosome number always promote with a specie that is closely related to the parent specie and produce fertile off-springs. These new generations are most adaptable and can survive in the environment more efficiently than the previous ones.

Additionally, other than natural selection, speciation can also happen as a result of random mutations, genetic drift and by means of artificial selection as well. But the natural likelihood of all these is probably low as compared to that of natural selection.

2.) From where do lion cubs get their chromosomes? How does this happen to produce the pattern that you see?​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete.

However, lions have 38 chromosomes (19 pairs) and <u>there cubs get their chromosomes from there parents</u>; with each parent donating 19 each. They also have a pair of chromosomes known as sex chromosomes (X and Y). The female always donates the X chromosome and the male donates either a X (which leads to a female cub) or a Y (which leads to a male cub), just like in many mammals.

NOTE: Chromosomes are threadlike structures in the nucleus of a cell that carry/stores genetic materials/genes.
