In males, what hormone is secreted by the hypothalamus that tells the anterior pituitary to secrete the gonadotropic hormones

Biology

Nata [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Gonadotropin releasing hormone

Explanation:

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone is one of the releasing hormones secreted by the hypothalamus to regulate the secretion of hormones from the anterior pituitary gland.  

At the beginning of puberty, the hypothalamus begins to increase its production of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). The gonadotropin-releasing hormone makes the anterior pituitary to release gonadotropins in both males and females. Two gonadotropic hormones are FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone). FSH promotes spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules, and LH promotes androgen production in the interstitial cells.

An action potential in one segment of axon causes adjacent sections of axon membrane to reach threshold through what mechanism?
Furkat [3]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The generation of local currents.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

An action potential at the axon hillock generates local currents that depolarize nearby sections of axon to threshold. This change in membrane potential causes voltage-gated Na+ channels to open in the adjacent axon segment. This generates/regenerates the action potential in the adjacent segment, causing the action potential to propagate away from the axon hillock.

True or false: homologous chromosomes separate during mitosis?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Homologous chromosomes do not function the same in mitosis as they do in meiosis. Prior to every single mitotic division a cell undergoes, the chromosomes in the parent cell replicate themselves. The homologous chromosomes within the cell will ordinarily not pair up and undergo genetic recombination with each other.
