<span>Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands. The thyroid is a dual lobed gland located in the neck region. It secretes hormones that control metabolism, growth, heart rate, body temperature, and regulate calcium levels. Hormones secreted by the thyroid include thyroxin, diiodothyronine, and calcitonin.</span>

The two main components of plant fertilizers which affect algal growth when they are delivered to aquatic systems via runoff are
sertanlavr [38]
<span>Nitrogen and phosphorous are the most prevalent aquatic pollution and contribute heavily to the excessive growth of algae in aquatic environments called algae blooms. The nitrogen from the fertilizers is found in molecules called nitrates which are compounds of both oxygen and nitrogen. Phosphorous helps algae to absorb carbon dioxide. So when the phosphorous levels are high the algae absorbs more carbon dioxide, which allows for faster photosynthesis and faster glucose production which leads to faster growth. Although algae need both nitrogen and phosphorous to grow, when the levels are too high the algae grows faster than the ecosystem can sustain leading to oxygen deprivation for the other aquatic organisms.</span>

Describe how the action potential is regenerated by local ion flux
zhenek [66]
Action potential is a mechanism of transfer of ions across the plasma membrane down their elctrochemical gradient. Action potential is regenerated by the influx of ions such as sodium in case of voltage gated sodium channels. The voltage gated channels can be either open or closed depending on the action potential. Depolarization of membrane leads to the opening of these channels that allow the sodium ions to enter the cell down their electrochemical gradient. The threshold of action potential is reached when the entry of sodium ions out reach the exit of potassium ions from the cell. This leads to the generation of action potential.
