The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels
LuckyWell [14K]
The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels are low.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease which results from mutations of genes for enzymes involved in the biochemical steps of production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids or sex steroids from cholesterol by the adrenal glands (steroidogenesis). <span>Low cortisol production results in rising levels of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) because cortisol usually inhibits ACTH production. This increased ACTH production induces overgrowth (hyperplasia) and overactivity of the steroid-producing cells of the adrenal cortex.</span>

Andrew is lactose intolerant. what happens to water movement in the presence of the double sugar, lactose, which remains in the
Juli2301 [7.4K]
When someone is lactose intolerant, it means its intestine cannot absorb lactose, which will stay in the lumen and be consumed by intestinal bacteria and produced gases, that's why intolerant lactose people have flatulence and abdominal pain while eating food with lactose in it.
Let's go back to the question, before being consumed, lactose in the lumen intestine will attract water from the enterocytes to its side by oncotic pressure.

Do not confound oncotic pressure (which concerns macromolecules like sugar or proteins) and osmotic pressure (which concern micromolecules like small ions (sodium potassium and chloride...)).
