2. A hormone that is produced by the endocrine system targets specific
cells ir many different parts of the body. Which of the following
mechanisms explains the best way for the hormone to efficiently reach all
of its target cells?
The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the
body to the target cells with specific receptors
The hormone reacts with neurons close by that signal the target cells throughout the
body
The hormone is transported by local regulation to cells close by that trigger the target
cells
The hormones moves throughout all the cells until it reaches the cells with the
specific receptors for the signal
Hurry please I’m taking a exam
Answer:
The correct answer is the first option:-
The hormone is released into the bloodstream where it can be carried throughout the body to the target cells with specific receptors.I learnt in biology that hormones are transported through blood so they reach the specific receptors and act upon them so am sure this is the answer!.
The other options aren't right for the question.

Choose one of the following scenarios and answer the questions provided. Support your answers using scientific reasoning and discussing possible impacts to individuals, society, and the environment. Be sure to also discuss any medical or ethical issues that may apply. (10 points)
Scenario 1:
Genetic engineering can be used to create more productive strains of farm animals. By adding genes to an animal's DNA, the animal can be made to produce milk or meat containing vital nutrients that would not be found naturally in those products. This provides a greater amount of nutrients per serving of milk or meat.
Do you think that this type of genetic engineering should be pursued? Explain your answer. (5 points)
What are some possible impacts (positive and negative) of this type of genetic engineering on individuals, society, and the environment? (5 points)
Scenario 2:
In the future, doctors may be able to evaluate your DNA to check for genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or harmful reactions to medications. Your personalized genetic profile could be kept on record and referred to in order to develop personal medical treatment based on your unique DNA sequencing. Scientists have found that just small variations in a specific section of your DNA can help determine how well some medications can work for you or if they would be beneficial at all.
Would you want to have your DNA profile kept in your medical record as a reference for your doctors? Explain your answer. (2 points)

i tried my best (so many questions on scenario 2)
Explanation:
scenario 1: there are many positive and negative possible impacts that come with genetic engineering. A very negative outcome could come from just one mistake. But if there was a way to ensure that nothing could go wrong than the outcome would be an healthy new meat or milk that's packed with nutrients.
scenario 2: I think if this was a real thing i would be completely for it. If a person was to get their DNA checked then doctors would be able to prescribe a medication that would fit you. this could also prevent any allergic reactions to and medications or treatments.
I personally would want my DNA profile kept on record so that i can be treated with the right medications for me.

Marianne is conducting an experiment on homeostasis in paramecium, which is a type of single-felled organism. Which of these observations provides the strongest evidence of a paramecium maintaining homeostasis
Hello. You did not present the answer options, which makes it difficult for you to receive a specific answer. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
One of the most common evidences that a paramecium is maintaining homeostasis is the pumping of water from the vacuoles present in its body.
The paramecium is a protozoan that lives in aquatic environments, mainly those composed of fresh water. The problem with this environment is that water is able to enter the paramecium organism in large quantities and this can promote the disruption of the organism through lysis of the cell. In this case, homeostasis must act quickly and pump water out of the body, through the cell vacuole.
Homeostasis is a regulatory system of the organism, which must promote the balance of the organism, whenever any external or internal factor tries to harm this balance.

eselson and Stahl relied on equilibrium density gradient centrifugation to resolve the DNA containing 14N from the DNA containing 15N.They started off with DNA in media containing the heavy isotope, then switched to media containing the lighter isotope and allowed DNA replication to take place. Under semiconservative model of DNA replication, after THREE rounds of replication, how many bands of DNA would you see and which band would contain more DNA molecules
Answer:
The correct answer would be - two bands ( one intermediate, and one light)- the light band contains more DNA molecules.
Explanation:
After the switching to the lighter isotope by the second round of replication where light strands are used as template strands, produces the light band of 14N.
After three rounds of semiconservative replication, where template strand contains both heavy and new formed light bands or nitrogen and produces so in a Density gradient, there will be 2 bands one light band and the other intermediate band.

b. No……………………………………………………………………………… Order Odonata
6. Does the insect have a small body with large fan –shaped wings?
a. Yes…………………………………………………………………………… Order Lepidoptera
b. No………………………………………………………………………………Order Hymenoptera
Answer:
ORDER ODONATA
Explanation:
It is simple to read a dichotomous key. You only need to understand the technical terminology and to detailed observe your specimen. The key will lead you to the answer.
1. Does the insect have wings?
a. Yes………………………………………………………………………… go to step 2
b. No…………………………………………………………………………. Order Hemiptera
We only need to answer this question by looking at the image. In our example, yes, the insect has wings. So we need to go to question number two. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would not have wings, it would belong to the Hemiptera order.
2. Does the insect have parallel wings? (hint: Parallel wings don’t stick out to the side)
a. Yes……………………………………………………………………………… go to step 3
b. No………………………………………………………………………………. go to step 4
Ok, here it tells you that parallel wings do not stick out to the side. But in our example, wings do stick out, so the answer should be NO. This species does not have parallel wings. As it is a NO, we go to question number 4.
Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would have parallel wings, we should read number 3.
4. Does the insect have 4 total wings?
a. Yes………………………………………………………………………………… go to step 5
b. No………………………………………………………………………………… Order Diptera
This one is easy. How many wings our specimen has? Four. Then it is a YES, and we go to question number 5. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would not have 4 wings, it would belong to the Diptera group.
5. Does the insect have long antennae?
a. Yes………………………………………………………………………………go to step 6
b. No……………………………………………………………………………… Order Odonata
Our insect has very short antennae. They are not long at all. So, the answer is NO, the insect does not have long antennae. This answer leads us directly to the order of our individual. ORDER ODONATA. Note: In the hypothetical case that the insect would have long antennae, we should read question number 6. And so on until we would reach the order.
ORDER ODONATA:
Dragonflies belong to this group. These insects characterize as having big eyes, and the separation between them depends on the species. They have an elongated abdomen, sometimes even longer than the wings. Their bodies must be robust to support the massive musculature that propels the wings during flight. The wings are long, big, and wide.
Usually, the males are much more colored than the females are.
Which of the following metabolic pathways does NOT directly produce lots of ATP (also called anaerobic cycle)?
A. Glycolysis
B. Krebs cycle
C. Citric acid cycle
D. Electron transport chain
Answer:
A. Glycolysis
Explanation:
Glycolysis is the first stage of cellular respiration, which occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. Glycolysis does not require oxygen to occur, hence, it is carried out by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organism.
Glycolysis, among the other stages of cellular respiration, produces the least ATP (2). Hence, Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that does NOT directly produce lots of ATP.
You have been hired as a field assistant for a researcher interested in the evolution of flower characteristics in orchids. Complete an experiment that determines whether color, size, shape, scent, or amount of nectar is the most important factor in attracting pollinators to a particular species. Assume that you can change any flower's color with a dye and that you can remove petals or nectar stores, add particular scents, add nectar by injection, or switch parts among species by cutting and gluing. Match the terms in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. Not all terms will be used.
a. one characteristic.
b. pollination success.
c. aiters others characteristics.
d. affects pollination success the most.
e. has no effect on pollination.

1. Present a flower with____changed to the normal pollinator. As a control, presenta flower with____changed to the normal pollinator has no effect on pollination
2. Record any measure of____.
3. Repeat for flowers with changed all characteristics other characteristics no characteristics alters other characteristics This characteristic will be____.
4. Analyze the data to determine which altered characteristic____.This characteristic will be the result of the experiment.
Answer:
[tex]\text{Present a flower with one characteristic changed to the normal pollinator. }[/tex][tex]\text{As a control, present a flower with no characteristics changed to the normal pollinator}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Record any measure of pollination success}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Repeeat for flowers with other characteristics changed}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Analyze the data to determine which altered characteristics affect pollination }[/tex][tex]\text{success the most. This characteristic will be the result of the experiment.}[/tex]
Explanation:
The missing information is attached below.
[tex]\text{Present a flower with one characteristic changed to the normal pollinator. }[/tex][tex]\text{As a control, present a flower with no characteristics changed to the normal pollinator}[/tex]
For the control, you'll need something you're already familiar with. In this scenario, a normal flower with no changes in characteristics is the best control. And if no data is accessible, you still have data on the success rate of a typical flower, which can be used as a guideline. And, for the initial configuration, you can only adjust one characteristic so it would be easier to maintain track of and analyze the data gathered.
[tex]\text{Record any measure of pollination success}[/tex]
Since the aim of your experiment is to examine the influence of flower characteristics on pollination performance, you should keep track of the active pollination events. To have more accurate results, this would require listing the total number of plants that were to be pollinated.
[tex]\text{Repeeat for flowers with other characteristics changed}[/tex]
Once you've completed the initial examination, you'll need to run tests on various characteristics to see whether they have some impact on pollination performance. To see the importance of different characters on pollination, change only one trait in flowers; if you'd like to research combined results, create pairs and change them together.
[tex]\text{Analyze the data to determine which altered characteristics affect pollination }[/tex][tex]\text{success the most. This characteristic will be the result of the experiment.}[/tex]
Your outcome is also the one that has gotten the most constructive or negative reviews. If some changed characteristic significantly affected the number of pollination efficiency, that is your outcome, because that is what you can mention as a good result and pollination enhancer.
