Thyroxine is a hormone that is  secreted by the thyroid gland to the blood stream. BMR is the basal metabolic rate that is affected by the levels of thyroxine hormone in the system. Hypophysectomy is the removal of the pituitary gland from an organism, in this case the rats. BMR rate of the rat seemed to increase with the injection of thyroxine however the BMR was still lower than the BMR of a normal rat with the thyroid gland  and the dose was too low.

What color is an index contouring line usually?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

hope that helps?

Explanation:

A contour line (also isoline, isopleth, or isarithm) of a function of two variables is a curve along which the function has a constant value, so that the curve joins points of equal value. It is a plane section of the three-dimensional graph of the function f(x, y) parallel to the (x, y)-plane. In cartography, a contour line (often just called a "contour") joins points of equal elevation (height) above a given level, such as mean sea level. A contour map is a map illustrated with contour lines, for example a topographic map, which thus shows valleys and hills, and the steepness or gentleness of slopes. The contour interval of a contour map is the difference in elevation between successive contour lines.
