What structure allows the hypothalamus to have direct communication with the anterior pituitary?

Biology

ANEK [815]1 year ago

Hypophyseal portal system allows the hypothalamus to have direct communication with the anterior pituitary.

The hypophyseal portal system is a network of blood vessels that connects the anterior portion of the gland and hypothalamus at the base of the brain. Two capillary beds, one in the median eminence and the other in the anterior pituitary, make up the portal system. Its principal job is to swiftly transfer and exchange hormones between the anterior pituitary gland and the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus.

The cortisol, androgens, and aldosterone hormones interact with anterior pituitary gland cells via travelling through the hypophyseal portal system. Hormonal signaling through the hypophyseal portal system enables connection between these two structures.

4. What was the “basic idea” about matter that Leucippus and Democritus proposed?
topjm [15]
Democritus is a Greek theorist that believes that atom is the smallest part of the substance. Atom, as he defined, is an indivisible entity. Leuccipus was Democritus' teacher who also believed on that notion. All matter are made up of atoms. If atoms are intact, the property of the substance is firm and solid while if the atoms are much apart, it would be described as a gas. Aristotle had a different belief of matter. He believed that the composing entities of matter are the four elements. However, this notion was rejected and proven through scientific inquiries about atoms and subatomic particles
