What if FGF21? What is FAP? why was it chosen as a potential target for anti-diabetic therapy? what results suggest that this might be problematic, i.e., that the response might not be what was hoped?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: FGF21 is Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 and FAP is Fibroblast Activation Protein. It has been said that it can lower blood glucose and raise insulin responsiveness, however, only 40% agreed to it and the rest got additional anti-diabetic agent to provide a better control of glucose levels.

The Eurasian water milfoil is a nonnativespecies, which was once commonly sold as an aquarium plant, and is now found growing in many lakes in New York State. It has few natural enemies, and grows rapidly, crowding out many native species. This plant ruins fishing areas and interferes with boating and other water sports. This is an example of (1) human consumption of finite resources (2) an unintended consequence of adding an organism to an ecosystem (3) an abiotic factor having a negative effect on an ecosystem (4) the introduction of a species that has increased the long-term biodiversity of an ecosystem

A plants response to light is known asA. phototropism.

B. gravitropism.

C. thigmatropism.

D. heliotropism.

Answers

photos means light
tropos means turning

phototropism means turning towards the light

answer is A

(gravotropizom is like gravity, if you hold that kind of plant sideways, it will try to turn sidewyas, dunno thigmatropism, helio tropizom is turning toward the sun (but ther are other light sources other than sun))

in an aquatic ecosystem, the algae and phytoplankton are responsible for primary productivity. All BUT ONE factor usually influences the primary productivity of a marine ecosystem. That is a)water salinity b)light intensity c)water temperature d)available nutrients

Answers

Answer: Light intensity  

Explanation:

The total amount of nutrient( organic material) which is left after respiration, in order to support the other levels of the food chain is known as the net primary productivity.

More than 90% of the producers are the pytoplanktons that performs the process of photosynthesis.

The intensity of light falling on the water surface affects the rate of primary productivity.
