The hormone epinephrine binds to β adrenergic receptors on smooth muscle cells of the bronchioles, causing them to dilate (increase in diameter). thyroid hormone is essential for the synthesis of β adrenergic receptors; therefore, in the absence of thyroid hormone, epinephrine cannot trigger bronchodilation. this concept is known as

Joe is breeding cockroaches in his dorm room. he finds that the average wing length in his population of cockroaches is 4 cm. he chooses the six cockroaches that have the largest wings; the average wing length among these selected cockroaches is 10 cm. joe interbreeds these selected cockroaches. from earlier studies, he knows that the narrow-sense heritability for wing length in his population of cockroaches is 0.6. a. calculate the selection differential and expected response to selection for wing length in these cockroaches. b. what should be the average wing length of the progeny of the selected cockroaches?

Benito is doing research on the effects of florida's elevation on its climate. his notes include the following: 1. the average elevation of florida is 30 m above sea level. 2. the highest point in florida is britton hill, which is 105 m above sea level. 3. the change in temperature from 0 m to 1,000 m is 7 °c. what can benito conclude about the effects of florida's elevation on its climate? a.) florida typically experiences cold temperatures and temperature changes within a narrow range. b.) florida typically experiences cold temperatures and temperature changes within a broad range. c.) florida typically experiences warm temperatures and temperature changes within a narrow range. d.) florida typically experiences warm temperatures and temperature changes within a broad range.

Drag each tile to the correct box. the body monitors the levels of oxygen in the blood to regulate breathing. isabel is running in a marathon and is near the finish line. she feels out of breath. how will her nervous system work to generate a reaction? arrange the tiles in chronological order. isabel's breathing rate increases. sensory receptors in the arteries detect low oxygen levels. the brain sends signals through motor neurons. sensory neurons generate an impulse. the central nervous system relays an impulse to certain brain regions.
