In addition to endocrine glands, some organs whose functions are primarily nonendocrine also produce hormones. these endocrine tissues include heart and kidneys.
<span>
The heart can act as an endocrine organ by releasing natriuretic peptides that lower the blood pressure. Those are an A-type natriuretic peptide (ANP) from the from stretched atria and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) from the ventricles.</span>
<span>
The kidney secretes two hormones: erythropoietin (EPO) which increase the production of red blood cells and calcitriol (active vitamin D3) which promotes the absorption of Ca and its release from the bones.</span>
When two solutions are separated by the membrane through which water can pass but starch cannot, the osmosis will occur.
Osmosis is described as the spontaneous movement of water through membrane from a region of lower solute concentration into a region of higher solute concentration. Water movement tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.
