Answer: C. Prolactin

Prolactin is a hormone that controls milk production together with oxytocin. The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes prolactin and the posterior lobe secretes oxytocin when a baby suckles at the breast. The level of prolactin in the blood slowly increases during pregnancy, and stimulates the growth and development of the mammary tissue, in preparation for the production of milk after delivery.

Moreover, Prolactin is in the highest level in about 30 minutes after the beginning of the feed, which is most important for producing milk for the next feed.

describe the water cycle here on Earth and explain how it demonstrates the law of conservation of matter.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Start with evaporation. Place a full cup of water in front of a sunny window. Use a marker to make a line at the beginning water level.

After evaporation we have condensation. When the water vapor reaches the sky it cools to form clouds.

Finally, a precipitation experiment. Again, fill a cup almost full with water.

Explanation:

Matter is conserved because atoms are conserved in physical and chemical processes. As complex as the water cycle is, water molecules are conserved and endlessly recycled in nature. Conservation of mass is a physical law that s never broken.
