Explain the process in which hormones secreted by the pancreas function with respect to increased glucose levels in the blood.

synthesis of hormones

by beta cells

release of hormones

from the receptors

-

intake of glucose molecules

from the blood by specific

transporters

high amount of glucose in

the blood, sending signals

toward the pancreas

binding of hormones with

receptors on the liver

Read the following scenario to answer the following question. in some zoos, rare crosses between a male lion and a female tiger have produced hybrid offspring called "ligers." male ligers are sterile but some female ligers are fertile. in the wild, lion and tiger ranges do not naturally overlap, making such a cross unlikely. furthermore, the solitary behavior of tigers and the social organizations of lions create behavioral differences. applying the biological species concept, the sterility of ligers reveals that a. lions are probably a subspecies of tigers b. tigers and lions are the same species c. a new species called "ligers" is forming d. tigers and lions are separate species

In order to study genetic mutations, scientists must study genetic material. which statement describes the genetic material scientists are most likely studying? a) they study alleles that contain chromosomes, which are rna.b) they study alleles that contain genes, which are chromosomes.c) they study chromosomes that contain genes, which are dna segments.

Which of the following statements is correct in hour our immune system responds to a potential pathogen? a. the adapted immune system will call on the innate immune system to destroy the pathogen. b. b cells will start reading the antigen code immediately and call t cells to assist in destroying the pathogen. c. the skin will be the first line of defense, and then the many phagocytes in the bloodstream will attempt to consume the possible pathogen. d. the t-cells in the adapted immune systems are the first to recognize the pathogen vaccines are weakened forms of disease causing microorganisms, which are given to patients to prevent disease. after the vaccine is administered, the immune system responds by creating a(n) to recognize the a. antigen, antibody b. antibody, antigen c. antibody, antibiotic d. antibiotic, antibody
