Hormones are produced by the hypothalamus and transported to the _______ pituitary to be released.

Biology

likoan [24]3 years ago

Answer: b. anterior.

Explanation:

Hypothalamic releasing and inhibiting hormones control the release of other hormones from the pituitary gland and they are secreted by neurons. They enter the anterior pituitary through blood vessels and to do this, <u>there is a bridge of capillaries that connects the hypothalamus, which is a part of the brain, to the anterior pituitary gland</u> and it is called the hypophyseal portal system. This system allows the hypothalamic hormones to be transported to the anterior pituitary without entering the systemic circulation.

So, the secretion of the hormones from the pituitary gland is regulated by releasing and inhibiting hormones from the hypothalamus. The six hormones produced by the anterior pituitary gland are:

  1. luteinizing hormone (LH)
  2. follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
  3. thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)
  4. adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
  5. prolactin (PRL)
  6. growth hormone (GH)

Characterization and determination of the S/G ratio via Py-GC/MS of agricultural and industrial residues
Oksanka [162]

Characterization and determination of the S/G ratio via Py-GC/MS of agricultural and industrial residues.

<h3>What is the abstract?</h3>

To investigate the potential lignin values, agricultural residues (apple tree pruning, olive tree pruning, and almond shell) and industrial residues (kraft black liquor) were employed as source materials for lignin extraction via various fractionation procedures (kraft, organosolv, acetosolv and acetosolv and formosolv processes). Py-GC/MS, FTIR, and GPC were used to characterise the separated lignins. The fractionation method had a significant impact on the average molecular weight (Mw) assessed by GPC. The severe circumstances of the acetosolv and acetosolv-formosolv procedures favoured repolymerization, resulting in high Mw lignins. Because of the longer retention durations, the EKL had a smaller Mw. Except for almond shell lignin, which has the highest relative abundance of G-type phenols, all lignins have higher relative abundances of S-type phenols.

The Warbler species are non migratory species, while Scott Sillet and colleagues have been studying migratory species.

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) as the light colored moths were seen and eaten, the allele for dark colour became more prevalent in the population.</em>

Explanation:

The process of natural selection tends to favour those organisms which are better adapted to live in an environment. Evolution changes the allele frequencies of a population over time depending on the traits favoured by natural selection.

Before the industrial revolution, the colour of the trees was lighter and hence, the light coloured moths were better adapted to such environments as they could hide from predation. After the industrial revolution, the colour of the woods of trees became darker. The light coloured moths were no more able to hide from their predators and hence their population declined.
