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

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.

Relative formula mass of glucose? (C6H12O6)
Rom4ik [11]

To find the mass of glucose, you must multiply the atomic weight of each of the elements in the molecule by the subscripts in the formula:

C_{6}=6*(12.01g)=72.06g

H_{12}=12*(1.008g)=12.096g

O_{6}=6*(15.999g)=95.994g

Then you add all of them together:

72.06g+12.096g+95.994g=180.15g

Therefore, the molar weight of glucose is 180.15 grams.

Briefly describe how the structure of each molecule differs
son4ous [18]

Answer:

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds. A compound is a substance which is formed by two or more different types of elements which are united chemically in a fixed proportion. All molecules are not compounds. All compounds are molecules.

Describe how the air pressure on Earth affects the weather.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:  

As the pressure decreases, the amount of oxygen available to breathe also decreases. Atmospheric pressure is an indicator of weather. When a low-pressure system moves into an area, it usually leads to cloudiness, wind, and precipitation. High-pressure systems usually lead to fair, calm weather.
