The hormones glucagon and insulin are produced by the pancreas and regulate the amount of glucose in the blood. Glucagon stimulates liver cells to release glucose into the blood, whereas insulin stimulates body cells to absorb glucose from the blood. a. Which system is described above?

Hurry which of these is true about index fossils? a) are very scarcely found b) used as guides in relative dating c) found in the youngest layer of the rock d) used as reference points in absolute dating

Photosynthesis uses co2 and cellular respiration produces co2. we call the point when the two processes are in balance--when there is no net production of co2--the compensation point. how might you limit one of the processes in order to achieve a compensation point?

One of the newest applications of cell technology is called cybrid embryos. this process involves replacing the nuclear material of an animal cell with human nuclear material. how might this process affect public policies about research by using stem cells? the same policies and concerns about the use of human embryonic stem cells would most likely apply. the embryos would most likely be treated like traditional animal embryos and regulated accordingly. the process of forming cybrid embryos would most likely be banned by government regulators. the embryos would be treated as regular cells because they are not fully human in origin.
