The graph shows how the normal levels of blood sugar change during the day. Meals increase the amount of sugar in the blood.

Explain whether the endocrine system maintains homeostasis and how it responds after each meal.

Choose the incorrect statement (a) the motor end plate membrane is only capable of generating graded potentials, but it is contiguous with the skeletal muscle sarcolemma, which can generate action potentials. (b) propagation of an action potential through the t-tubules into the sarcoplasmic reticulum triggers the release of ca++ into the cytoplasm of a skeletal muscle fiber. (c) the generation of suprathreshold endplate potentials in multiple muscle fibers could be due to the increased frequency of action potential generation at the axon hillock of a single motor neuron. (d) a greater amount of ach would be found in the presynaptic vesicles of a motor unit that fired several action potentials after exposure to botulinum toxin, than in a motor unit that fired several action potentials after exposure to the venom of the krait snake (which contains α-bungarotoxin).

Kudzu vines grow by climbing and wrapping around trees. trees covered by kudzu can die because they are starved of sunlight. what type of relationship exists between the trees and the kudzu growing on them?

*a mastectomy is the surgical removal of one or both breasts, either partially of fully. an oophorectomy is the surgical removal of an ovary or ovaries.analyze a woman’s risk of dying of cancer if she carries a mutated brc1 gene.how do heredity and inheritance relate to the data presented in these charts? what data would you need to see in order to draw conclusions about the effectiveness of preventive surgeries? what does the age at diagnosis tell you about the mutation? explain how breast-cancer genes are still present in the population, despite cancer-related surgeries and deaths.
