Biology

Anarel [89]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

oxytocin

Explanation:

The pituitary gland is a small gland that divides into two distinct portions, the anterior and posterior lobes, and is located at the base of the brain.

The anterior pituitary, also known as the adenohypophysis, secretes six important peptide hormones, they are:

  • The growth hormone;
  • Adrenocorticotropin;
  • The thyroid stimulating hormone;
  • Prolactin;
  • Two gonadotropic homons - FSH and LH;

Oxytocin is not a hormone produced by the anterior pituitary but by the posterior pituitary, which is known as the neurohypophysis.

Write a claim about whether you will consume or not cinsume lactose
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

See explanation below:

Explanation:

Lactose is found in milk. It is part of the reason milk tastes somewhat sweet since Lactose is a sugar. Anyone that consumes milk or anything with milk in it, will consume Lactose.

As for me, I plan on having some Ice-Cream later. Since there is milk in Ice-Cream, I will consume Lactose today.

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!
