Cell Size, Presence of other cells, and Chemical Stimulators
The pituitary gland, otherwise known as the hypophysis cerebri, is a small gland that is about the size of a pea. It’s
often called the “master gland” because it produces the hormones that stimulate the function of other endocrine
glands. It’s located at the base of the brain on the hypothalamus and is divided into two lobes—<u>anterior lobe and
</u>
<u>posterior lobe.

Explanation:
Catalyzed reactions are typically used to accelerate the rate by which a specific chemistry proceeds. Essentially, the action of the catalyst is to provide an alternative, lower energy pathway for the reaction.
Answer:
West Nile virus (WNV) causes epidemics of febrile illness, meningitis, encephalitis, and flaccid paralysis. Since it was first detected in New York City in 1999, and through 2004, 16,000 WNV disease cases have been reported in the United States. Over the past 5 years, research on WNV disease has expanded rapidly. This review highlights new information regarding the virology, clinical manifestations, and pathology of WNV disease, which will provide a new platform for further research into diagnosis, treatment, and possible prevention of WNV through vaccination.

Answer:
A
Explanation:
These three phosphate groups are linked to one another by two high-energy bonds called phosphoanhydride bonds. When one phosphate group is removed by breaking a phosphoanhydride bond in a process called hydrolysis, energy is released, and ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP).
