A substance that provides nourishment essential for the maintenance of life and for growth.
If you do not gain enough nutrients, a nutritional deficiency occurs (when the body doesn't absorb or get from food the necessary amount of a nutrient). Deficiencies can lead to a variety of health problems. These can include digestion problems, skin disorders, stunted or defective bone growth, and even dementia.
<span>The correct
answer is c. hypothalamus to pituitary gland to adrenal glands.

When
it comes to stress, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) is responsible for
stress response. Hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH)
which binds to its receptors on the anterior pituitary gland. As a result, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is released and it stimulates the release of
cortisol from the adrenal gland. At a certain levels of cortisol, this steroid
hormone exerts negative feedback to the hypothalamic release of CRH.
Answer:
Average atomic mass = 21.38 amu.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of first isotope = 21 amu
Abundance of first isotope = 62%
Mass of second isotope = 22 amu
Abundance of second isotope = 38%
Average atomic mass = ?
Solution:
Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100
Average atomic mass = (62×21)+(38×22) /100
Average atomic mass = 1302 +836 / 100
Average atomic mass = 2138 / 100
Average atomic mass = 21.38 amu.
