Hypersecretion of glucocorticoids, often caused by a tumor, results in ________.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Cushing's syndrome

Explanation:

Prolonged hypersecretion of glucocorticoid hormones by the adrenal gland causes a hormonal imbalance where the person begins to accumulate fat and lose bone and muscle mass.

Remember, one of the most important glucocorticoid hormone is cortisol, also known as the stress hormone, it usually helps us respond to conditions that are difficult for our body and where we need to use our strength and mental dexterity, when this hormone is elevate, we can respond to stress situations more easily. It helps us activate all the metabolism, as a result, we need to use more energy.

If cortisol remains elevated all day, despite not making physical and mental strength, our body will think it needs to eat, so people with this syndrome are always hungry, and accumulate fat. Thus leading to the appearance of the symptoms of the syndrome.

What is a geostrophic wind? Why would you not expect to observe a geostrophic wind at the equator?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

A theoretical wind known as the geostrophic wind is produced when the Coriolis effect, as well as the pressure difference forces, are balanced (PGF). It is a decent estimate for the wind reported at middle latitudes at an altitude of greater than 1 km. Given that there is no Coriolis effect near the equator, there can be no geostrophic wind.

What does "geostrophic wind" mean?

Geostrophic flow, as used in atmospheric research, is the fictitious wind that would emerge from a precise balancing act between the Coriolis effect and the pressure difference forces. The term "geostrophic equilibrium" or "geostrophic balance" refers to this situation (also known as geostrophy). Parallel to the isobars is where the geostrophic wind is pointed. In nature, this equilibrium seldom occurs perfectly. Because of these factors, the genuine wind and geostrophic wind nearly never match up.

The location of geostrophic winds:

At elevations exceeding 1000 meters (3300 feet), geostrophic wind can be found. With the use of weather balloons, the geostrophic wind velocity may be calculated. At heights up to 100 meters, the ground surface has a significant impact on winds.
