The given figure shows _____.
A scientist was studying the production of a protein that was released by an animal cell into a culture medium. She found that the protein only appeared in the culture medium after she added a few drops of a hormone to the cell. Before adding the hormone, she labelled the protein inside the cell with a fluorescent dye and looked at the cell under the light microscope. The dye was seen in flattened sheets and tube-like structures throughout the cell, and in stacks of flattened sac-like structures. After adding the hormone, the dye was also seen as small dots clustered against the cell membrane. Which statement most likely explains these observations?
Pancreas has two types of cells namely islets of Langerhans and acinar cells. In the early years of research on diabetes, extract of this gland was tested on diabetic patients. Results are tabulated below:
| Reduction in blood sugar level | ||
| Extract of pancreas | ||
| Islet cell extract | ||
| Acinar cell extract |
The correct interpretation is that:
The anterior pituitary gland facilitates growth of an individual by release of the human growth hormone (HGH) which in turn is regulated by two hormones namely growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) and growth hormone inhibiting hormone (GHIH). Imbalance of these hormones could result in gigantism, dwarfism or acromegaly. Interpret the data given below and select the appropriate statement.
