Answer:

Pituitary hormone replacement therapy

Explanation:

Hypopituitarism is a condition in which the pituitary gland is not producing one or more of its hormones or is producing them at lower than normal levels. Generally, these hormones stimulate other endocrine glands to produce their hormones. For example, if the pituitary gland doesn't make the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), the thyroid gland doesn't work correctly.

The pituitary gland, which is located at the base of the brain, controls the production of hormones in all endocrine glands. In pituitary hormone replacement therapy, a patient takes hormones to replace the hormones not being produced by the pituitary gland. Such hormones include adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), sex hormones, prolactin, and growth hormone.

Hope it will help you. If help please make it brainliest so that others can find it easily when they will ask this type question. :)

How do plants and snails affect the CO2 and O2 gases in an aquatic environment
frez [133]

Answer:

Water plants will absorb carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, and some plants will also absorb ammonia (as a source of nitrogen for growth). Aquatic animals like fish and snails absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide directly into water through specialized structures like gills.

Describe a characteristic of both an Emperor Penguin and Galapagos Penguin that evolved differently due to their different envir
nevsk [136]

Answer: The size.

Explanation: On the one hand the Emperor Penguin is bigger reaching up to 48 Inches (120cm) of height and 100 Lb in weight, on the other hand the Galápagos Penguin is much smaller. For example a large adult usually goes up to 21 Inches (53cm) and 5 Lb of weight.

This is directly related to the temperature of the environment in which each one develops, because a body exchanges heat in two dimensions through the surface. So, it's easier for a big creature to maintain core temperature stable.

This is really important in environments like the Arctic where temperature goes below zero and the opposite happen in the Equator where there is a tropical weather all the time.
