Among the most obvious differences between pseudoscorpions and scorpions is size. Scorpions range from a half-inch long to more than 7 inches; many of the commonly encountered scorpions in the United States are 2 inches long or longer, making them easy to spot with the naked eye. Pseudoscorpions, on the other hand, reach between just under one-tenth of an inch to barely over a quarter-inch long, making them inconspicuous in most circumstances. Most are under 1/8 inch.
The hormones released from adrenal cortex are lipid soluble. These hormones are aldosterone (improves sodium absorption and potassium secretion in kidney), and cortisol (stimulates the breakdown of fats, improves gluconeogenesis in the liver).
