Explanation

Hormones are chemicals released by endocrine cells or glands.

That are carried through the bloodstream to reach distant cells, organs, or tissues, where they regulate various physiological processes.

Explanation

The internal environment, also known as the "milieu intérieur," refers to the conditions within an organism's body.

Such as temperature, pH, and concentration of essential nutrients and waste products.

Explanation

Immunization is actually the process of becoming immune to a disease, typically through vaccination.

It is not an effect of misusing antibiotics.

Explanation

Color blindness, specifically red-green color blindness.

It is a condition where a person has difficulty perceiving certain colors, particularly red and green.

Explanation

A stimulus is detected by a receptor.

It is a specialized cell or structure that converts the stimulus into an electrical signal that can be transmitted to the nervous system.

Explanation

Plants exhibit chemical coordination, also known as hormonal coordination, which involves the use of plant hormones or phytohormones to coordinate activities such as:

• Cell growth and differentiation
• Root and stem elongation
• Leaf senescence
• Flowering and fruiting
• Response to environmental stimuli

Explanation

The lens in the human eye is a convex lens, meaning it is thicker in the middle than at the edges.

This shape allows it to focus light rays convergently, creating a real image on the retina.

A convex lens is also known as a converging lens, as it converges light rays to a focal point.

Explanation

Minerals like gold salts (e.g., auranofin) and platinum compounds (e.g., platinum sulfate) have been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis.

Gold therapy, in particular, has been used for many years to reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms.

Explanation

Genetic engineering, also known as genetic modification or biotechnology.

It is the artificial manipulation of DNA to alter the genetic code of an organism.

This can involve the transfer of genes from one organism to another, or the alteration of existing genes within an organism.

Explanation

Irritation or stimulation triggers a response in organisms.

It leading to movement as they react to the changes in their environment.
