Which are examples of how the hypothalamus directly regulates endocrine activity?

1 answer:

6 0

Two hormones are produced and kept in the posterior pituitary gland. generating control chemicals that either stimulate or inhibit the anterior pituitary gland. encourages the release of essential hormones from the adrenal cortex.

By releasing particular regulatory hormones, the hypothalamus regulates the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland's ability to produce hormones. Hypothalamic neurons produce regulatory substances into the interstitial fluids around the median eminence, swelling close to the infundibulum's connection. The pituitary gland, which produces and distributes additional critical hormones throughout the body, collaborates with the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland jointly regulate a large number of the body's hormone-producing glands, collectively known as the endocrine system. The thyroid, gonads, and adrenal cortex.

Pepsi [2]

Nitrogen Cycle steps:

N molecules breaking apart via nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

Animals ingest nitrogen in nitrate-containing food after plants use nitrogen-containing compounds.

The organic matter decays via decomposers

N2 is formed via denitrifying bacteria.

Explanation:

The nitrogen-fixing bacteria removes atmospheric nitrogen by fixing nitrogen through nitrification. The atmospheric nitrogen cannot be absorbed by plants and hence has to be converted into nitrates. This conversion takes place by nitrifying bacteria present in leguminous plants.

Animals (herbivores) consume the plants that have absorbed nitrogen/

When these animals die, decomposing bacteria acts on the dead organic matter, decomposition takes place through ammonification, converting the organic nitrates into ammonia

The nitrates are converted back again to nitrogen by the action of denitrifying bacteria.

The nitrogen thus formed is released to the atmosphere

olya-2409 [2.1K]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

b). Activation of an upstream guanine nucleotide exchange factor

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

<em><u>When a ligand activates the G protein-coupled receptor, it induces a conformational change in the receptor that allows the receptor to function as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that exchanges GDP for GTPthus turning the G protein-coupled receptor on.</u></em>
The activated G-protein then dissociates into an alpha (G-alpha) and a beta-gamma complex.
