The anterior and posterior lobes of the pituitary differ in that _____.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

many anterior pituitary hormones regulate other endocrine glands whereas posterior pituitary hormones regulate nonendocrine tissues

Explanation:

Anterior pituitary or adenohypophysis is the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Secretion of endocrine cells of the anterior pituitary is controlled by regulatory hormones released by hypothalamus. The hypothalamic releasing hormones bind to anterior pituitary endocrine cells, upregulating or downregulating their release of hormones. Anterior pituitary hormones stimulate endocrine glands: FSH and LH (ovaries and testes), TSH (thyroid), and ACTH (adrenal cortex).

Posterior pituitary or neurohypophysis is the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. It  is not glandular it is just a collection of axonal projections from the hypothalamus. Posterior pituitary hormones regulate nonendocrine tissues: ADH-vasopressin (kidney tubules) and oxytocin (mammary glands, uterine tissues, brain).

bezimeni [28]
The correct answer is "delirium tremens"
<span>
In the event of abrupt cessation of alcohol use, there will be an adaptive response of the central nervous system leading to overactivity which explains the withdrawal symptoms. In the event of central nervous system hyperactivity, mild symptoms include but not limited to insomnia, tremors, mild anxiety, headache, and diaphoresis; these symptoms appear usually within six hours of cessation. Withdrawal-related seizures characterized as generalized tonic-clonic convulsions as well as alcoholic hallucinosis or hallucinations related to abrupt alcohol cessation may occur in moderately severe cases. In most severe cases, delirium tremens may occur and this is characterized by hallucinations, disorientation, tachycardia, and agitation. </span>

Why is it important to balance the rate of extraction of water from an aquifer with its rate of recharge?
gladu [14]

The quantity of water in the water table can change rapidly depending on the rate of extraction. As the level of water decreases in the aquifer, there is less available water to be pumped. If the rate of potential groundwater recharge is less than the rate of extraction, the water table will be too low for access.
