Chemistry

The 2 hormones are insulin & glucagon.

A hormone will only act on a part of the body it 'fits'. A hormone can be thought of as a key, and its target site ( i.e an organ) has specially shaped locks on the cell walls. 
If the hormone fits, then it will work.

The hormone can set off a cascade of other singling pathways in the cell to cause an immediate effect ( for instance, insulin signaling leads to a rapid uptake of glucose in muscle cells)

The endocrine system is a tightly regulated system that keeps the hormones and their effects at just the right level. One way this is achieved is through ' feedback loops'. The release of hormones is regulated by other hormones, proteins or neuronal signals.

The released hormone then has its effect on other organs. This effect on the organ feeds back to the original signal to control any further hormone release.

If you're dealing with gases, some of them could escape the container. Or, if you're dealing with liquids, there could be some outside factors playing in. In general, you need a closed system to observe a reaction accurately.

Calculate the mass of water having same number of hydrogen atoms as are present in the 32gram of methane. Please help me soon...
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 mole of methane = C + H4 = 12 + 4 = 16

32 grams of methane is 32/16 = 2 moles.

1 moles of methane contains 4 moles of hydrogen (CH4). Note the 4 in CH4

2 moles of methane = 8 moles of hydrogen.

H2O has 2 moles of hydrogen

Each mole of water contains 2 moles of hydrogen.

8 moles of hydrogen / 2 moles = 4 moles of water.
