Epinephrine on its own increases blood glucose by 5m g/100m L and glucagon alone by 8m g/100m L. If both hormones are present, blood glucose increases by 17m g/100m L. This is an example of a(n) hormone interaction.

a. permissive

b. synergistic

c. long-loop

d. short-loop

e. antagonistic

b. synergistic

Explanation:

Synergistic hormone interaction is a type of interaction between hormones in which both hormones combine together to produce a greater effect in a target cell compared to the effect any of them can produce independently. It is the functional interaction that involves the receptors of two hormones to produce an amplified response

thereby decreasing the pH and increasing the acidity of water. pH is a measure of acidity or basisity (alkalinity) of a solution.
