The function of the liver in humans is to maintain the [glucose] circulating in the blood stream at reasonably constant levels. This is so organs like the brain that use primarily glucose as their carbon source to produce energy via ATP have a steady supply of glucose. It also ensures that the levels of glucose in the blood stream do not get too high. Using the plots from problem 6, discuss why it makes sense that glucokinase in liver would behave differently than the hexokinase in other cells.

Populations of blue-winged warblers, a type of bird, migrate south in the winter and return to canadian breeding grounds in the spring. as global temperatures have increased due to climate change, spring has started arriving in the warbler's breeding grounds earlier in the year, before the warblers return. warblers now arrive at their breeding grounds too late to select ideal nesting sites and to feed on important early-spring food sources how are populations of blue-winged warblers most likely to be affected by the earlier arrival of spring? o a. populations will go extinct since the warblers will stop migrating to breeding grounds. b. populations will be unaffected since most species can quickly adapt to effects of climate change. c. populations will increase since warmer temperatures are generally beneficial to survival, d. populations will decline since individuals will be less likely to successfully reproduce, reset next

Below, the levels of organization in a multicellular organism are shown from least to most complex. which level of organization can be described as several different types of tissues working together to perform a common task?

What evidence supports the law of conservation of energy? a) mechanical energy is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis. b) oxygen is made from the breakdown of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. c)energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and becomes chemical energy during photosynthesis. d)the sun gives off light energy that is absorbed by plants.
