Answer:
An autoimmune problem involving the thyroid gland: C. Graves' disease
Hyposecretion of growth hormone: Pituitary dwarfism
Hyposecretion of the pancreas: E. Diabetes mellitus
Hyposecretion of the adrenal cortex: B. Addison's disease
Hypersecretion of growth hormone: A. Acromegaly
Explanation:
Growth hormone is the hormone from the anterior pituitary gland that targets the tissues such as muscles, bones, cartilage, liver, etc. and stimulates the somatic growth of the body. Its hypersecretion leads to acromegaly in adults while its hyposecretion causes dwarfism in children characterized by stunted growth. There is abnormal thickening of specific bones in acromegaly.
Pancreatic hormone insulin serves to lower down the blood glucose levels. Insulin deficiency causes diabetes mellitus characterized by higher blood glucose levels in the affected person.
Hyposecretion of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoid from adrenal cortex causes Addison's disease characterized by rapid weight loss, lower levels of glucose and sodium in plasma while a rise in potassium levels.
Grave's disease is an autoimmune disease wherein the thyroid gland is stimulated for increased secretion of thyroxine resulting in protruded eyeballs.
the first one would be the correct answer
The weather map below and on your knowledge of Earth science. The map shows a low-pressure system with two fronts extending from its center (L). Points A, B, C, and D represent locations on Earth’s surface. Two different air masses are labeled
Answer:
The generation of nitric oxide is done by almost every kind of cell present in the human body, it is one of the essential constituents that plays an important function in maintaining proper health of blood vessels. The nitric oxide acts as a vasodilator, that is, it relaxes the blood vessels' inner muscles, thus making the blood vessels to broaden.
Therefore it can be concluded that nitric oxide enhances the flow of blood and thus reduces the blood pressure. In this manner, nitric oxide helps in tackling the symptoms of conditions like angina.
At the molecular level. the activation of guanylyl cyclase is done by nitric oxide, which further catalyzes the production of cGMP. This cGMP further functions as an intracellular messenger in a pathway that results in the relaxation of the smooth muscles.
Two ways carbon can get from the ocean to the lithosphere is through the marine plants + animals (in the ocean) , sediments, petroleum then to the lithosphere. The second way is through the shells + coral (in the ocean), limestone, then to the lithosphere.
