My doctor told me that birth control pills contain small amounts of estrogen and progesterone, and these hormones prevent me fro

m ovulating. I assume that it has something to do with the levels of the gonadotropins that I asked about earlier. Can you explain this to me?

Ok... This is a bit complicated but bear with me. In a female's body Estrogen and Progesterone are two of the major used to maintain the menstruation cycle. Gonadotrophic substances are an entirely different topic with it being the hormones FSH and LH (These hormones are released while an egg is in development in the ovaries). 

Without going into even deeper specifics. Estrogen is used by the body signal to ovulate, as well as thicken the uterine walls... Progesterone is used to maintain the uterine walls "after" the egg is fertilized. What the pill is suppose to do is actually force a premature ovulation, which is why there is estrogen. The Progesterone's job as is maintain the uterine wall's endometrium to a low level and helps keep blood loss from a period at a minimum. 

If you need clarification please feel free to question.

What specialized structures does crayfish have that make it well suited to its environment​
Zinaida [17]
Crayfish are invertebrates which means they don't have a backbone. They are also arthropods, which means that they have a protective exoskeleton on the outside of their body. Other arthropods include insects, spiders, and centipedes. Crayfish continually shed their exoskeleton and regrow a new one. During this transition is when they are most vulnerable to predators because they aren't protected by their outer shell.

Crayfish are found all over the world in many different freshwater environments, such as rivers, creeks, springs, and swamps. But this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find them. They are somewhat cryptic because they dig out homes for themselves under rocks and blend in well with their environment. Crayfish will ardently defend this dwelling against intruders using their strong front claws

Force in the liquid are the forces of attraction between the molecules within the liquid.
ziro4ka [17]
The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules: A molecule in the bulk liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions. A molecule at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.

the site of atapuerca in northern spain is one of the most important fossil hominin sites in europe. identify what the following
Temka [501]

There have be found some fossils of ancient remains over the years. What the fossils from Atapuerca revealed about the hominins living in Europe at this time is below:

  • The Skull is known to show Interbreeding that took place with neandertals and their relatively healthy population.

  • The Fragment shows that there was a possibility of cannibalism in that area.

It shows that possible cannibalism took place as there were Cutmarks on various hominin bones found at Atapuerca mirror.

The relatively healthy population was found out through the study of the dentition of the Atapuerca hominins by anthropologists. It gave them a view into their diet and overall health.

The interbreeding with the Neandertals was shown through the Nuclear DNA that was gotten from bones and teeth of bones found at Sima de los Huesos
