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.


btw- found all this info @ the Better Health channel, an australian government health website , so if your still confused by my answer, check out this website

How many moles are in 36.0g of H20
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2 moles

Explanation:

Data

mass of H₂O = 36 g

moles of H₂O = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of water (H₂O)

H₂O = (1 x 2) + (16 x 1) = 2 + 16 = 18 g

2.- Use proportions and cross multiplication to find the answer.

               18 g of H₂O ---------------- 1 mol

               36 g of H₂O --------------- x

                     x = (36 x 1) / 18

                     x = 36/18

                     x = 2 moles

The two boron atoms listed in the table are isotopes of the boron. The two carbon atoms and the two oxygen atoms are also called
Ivan

Answer:

A type of an atom which has a different number of neutrons but the same atomic number, therefore making it the same element. This atom would still have the same properties as well. (Ex: Vanadium-51 is an isotope of Vanadium that has 51 neutrons but still has 23 protons, as its atomic number is 23.)

Are phase changes physical or chemical changes? why?
Studentka2010 [4]
Physical! Because they do not modify the nature of the substance ( if you look at the chemical level) and it is reversible

Vapor is H20
Water is H20
Ice is H20

A chemical changes is not reversible
Burning wood for example! And the reactants interact together to form a new product.
