C. Bleach. Cleans stuff out of everything
Hello. You forgot to report that this question is about the "Eagle eye" article
Answer:
I had already heard about all the ecosystem services mentioned in the article and according to how the use of nature and exploitation has been taking over our society, all services receive my concern.
Explanation:
The "The Character of Ecosystem Services" section presents a series of ecosystem services that nature offers us and that are fundamental for the survival of human beings on earth. These services are: Production of Ecosystem Goods, Generation and Maintenance of Biodiversity, Climate and Life, Mitigation of Floods and Droughts, Services Supplied by Soil, Pollination, Natural Pest Control Services, Seed Dispersal, Aesthetic Beauty and Intellectual and Spiritual Stimulation.
These services are highly publicized in the media and there is no need for a long and time-consuming research to understand their importance in our lives and how we humans have failed to maintain them and caused them to be unavailable, through degrading exploitation and rampant pollution that has caused damage to nature and threatened our existence in the future. For this reason, all these services deserve our concern, in addition to deserving that all human beings change their habits to guarantee their existence and availability.

Bronze casting was the technology developed during the Shang Dynasty. This method of moulding bronze is used to create bronze sculptures, figurines, and also weapons. The technology is a very important achievement to the dynasty itself because of its use in warfare and defense.
Answer: The options were missing, but the endocrine organs that secret each gland are:
Pituitary gland: Thyroid-stimulating hormone
Pituitary gland: Adrenocorticotropic
Hypothalamus: Gonadotropic
Pituitary gland: Prolactin
Pituitary gland: Growth hormone
Thyroid gland: Thyroxine
Thyroid gland: Calcitonin
Thyroid gland: Triiodothyronine
Hypothalamus: Antidiuretic
Hypothalamus: Oxytocin
Adrenal gland: Glucocorticoids
Adrenal gland: Mineralocorticoids
Adrenal gland: Epinephrine
Pineal gland: Melatonin
Thymus gland: Thymosins
Pancreas: Insulin
Pancreas: Glucagon
Explanation:
- The pituitary gland, also known as the hypophysis, produces the thyroid-stimulating hormone, the adrenocorticotropic, prolactin, and growth hormone. The hypophysis has two parts, the anterior one and the posterior one. The anterior one secretes these hormones thanks to the action of hormones that comes from the hypothalamus.
- The hypothalamus, which is a gland that is in the brain, produces:
gonadotropic, antidiuretic, and oxytocin. Once produced, they are stored and secreted by hypophysis. In this case, these hormones are in the other portion of the hypophysis, the posterior part. The hormones act in the reproductive system.
- The thyroid gland, which is in the neck, produce and secretes:
thyroxine, calcitonin, and triiodothyronine. The calcitonin controls calcium concentration, while the thyroxine and triiodothyronine impact the cells' metabolism.
- The adrenal gland is above the kidneys. It secretes Glucocorticoids, Epinephrine, and Mineralocorticoids. The mineralocorticoids regulate the concentrations of water and salt in our body; glucocorticoids have many functions, one is fighting inflammation; lastly, epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, is released in a fight or flight reaction.
- The pancreas is an organ and a gland. As a gland, it secretes glucagon and insulin to regulate the concentration of glucose in the blood.
- The pineal gland is on the brain. This gland secretes melatonin, which is a hormone that helps us to sleep.
- The thymus gland is in the chest, and it produces a hormone called thymosin. This hormone helps in the production of leucocytes, which the thymus produces.
