Hemopoiesis begins in the red bone marrow, with hemopoietic stem cells that differentiate into myeloid and lymphoid lineages.
Myeloid stem cells give rise to all the other formed elements, including the erythrocytes; megakaryocytes that produce platelets; and a myeloblast lineage that gives rise to monocytes and three forms of granular leukocytes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.
Genetic drift or allelic drift is the change in the relative frequency in which a gene variant (allele) occurs in a population due to random sampling and chance.
When is genetic drift a major factor in evolution is
* When there is low gene flow.
* When there is no selective pressure.
* When there is a bottleneck.
True. Hormones are chemicals secreted and regulated by the endocrine system.
Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals and humans which is analogous to the starch in plants. Glycogen is synthesized and stored mainly in the liver and the muscles.
ATP and NADPH produced by the light reactions are used in the Calvin cycle to reduce carbon dioxide to sugar. The Calvin cycle is similar to the Krebs cycle in that the starting material is regenerated by the end of the cycle.
