Many birth-control pills release a constant amount of synthetic estradiols and progesterone for 21 days, followed by 7 days when no hormones are ingested. which of the following statements most accurately describes the effects of birth-control pills? -birth-control pills maintain constant levels of estrogens and/or progesterone so there is no surge in lh and ovulation does not occur.-birth-control pills inhibit the development of the uterine lining so implantation of a fertilized oocyte cannot occur.-birth-control pills maintain constant levels of estrogens and/or progesterones and mask the release of the oocyte from the follicle.-the 7 days with no hormones does not allow a thick enough uterine lining to form so a fertilized oocyte cannot implant.

The pea aphid, a type of insect, contains light-capturing pigments in its exoskeleton. pea aphids gained the ability to synthesize these pigments from genes transferred from fungi. while pea aphids do not have chloroplasts or fix carbon, researchers have found that pea aphids with more pigments have higher levels of atp than those with fewer pigments. pea aphids also have been shown to increase production of atp when exposed to sunlight. based on this information, is the pea aphid a true autotroph? a. yes, because the pea aphid can store energy from the sun in atp molecules. b. no, because the pea aphid is unable to use the energy from sunlight. c. yes, because the pea aphid does not need to use energy from food. d. no, because the pea aphid does not store energy from the sun as sugars.
