Name two hormones produced by the endocrine system and describe how they work with other organ systems to maintain homeostasis

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.

Which choice best describes what would happen if a cube with a density of 0.2 g/mL were placed in a container of water?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Explanation:

The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.

The density of water is 1g/mL

If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .

Here the density is less than that of water.

The density is 0.2g/mL

Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.
