All of the following are true regarding hypothalamic control of homeostasis, except a lesion in the anterior pituitary could result in dwarfism.

Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Anterior pituitary gland is the seat of the hormonal control all over the body. Hypothalamus is the actual secreting part of the brain which secretes the hormones. The posterior pituitary gland secretes directly from the hypothalamus.

The secretions of the anterior pituitary gland is brought by the blood vessels upto the anterior pituitary from where they are secreted. A tumour in the hypothalamus will cause the excess secretion of the growth hormones and the Thyroid stimulating hormones. That will cause gigantism.

A cell is placed in a solution that is hypotonic to the cell. Which of the following best describes movement of water in this si
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

C. Water will flow into and out of the cell, but the overall net movement will be into the cell.

Explanation:

In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of water outside the cell is higher than inside the cell and the concentration of the solute is lower than inside the cell, therefore, water will flow in and out of the cell but the net movement of water will be from area having higher water concentration to lower concentration.

That means the net movement of water will be into the cell if a cell is placed into the hypotonic solution. Water moves in and out of a cell by the process called osmosis which is a type of diffusion.

This movement of water into the cell will swell cell and the cell can burst if it is not protected by a cell wall. Therefore the right answer is C.
