It performs these roles by serving as the primary link of the nervous system with the endocrine system. Pituitary gland is an example of  endocrine gland that secrets many hormones. (they are called endocrine because the hormones are secreted directly into the blood streams.

<u>Its activities are controlled by the nervous stimulation from hypothalamus. Therefore the instructions to secretes certain hormones to the post and anterior part of the pituitary gland depends on the hypothalamus.</u>

Growth hormones, oestrogen, and thyroid are examples of hormones of the pituitary glands.

How does mass affect time space?
horsena [70]

Answer:

Gravitational time dilation occurs because objects with a lot of mass create a strong gravitational field. The gravitational field is really a curving of space and time. The stronger the gravity, the more spacetime curves, and the slower time itself proceeds.

What is RFLP? What are some of the limitations of this technique?
bearhunter [10]
In molecular biology, restriction fragment length polymorphism, orRFLP, is a technique that exploits variations in homologous DNA sequences. It refers to a differencebetween samples of homologous DNAmolecules from differing locations ofrestriction enzyme sites, and to a related laboratory technique by which these segments can be illustrated. InRFLP analysis, the DNA sample is broken into pieces and (digested) byrestriction enzymes and the resultingrestriction fragments are separated according to their lengths by gel electrophoresis. Although now largely obsolete due to the rise of inexpensive DNA sequencing technologies, RFLP analysis was the first DNA profilingtechnique inexpensive enough to see widespread application. RFLP analysis was an important tool in genome mapping, localization of genes forgenetic disorders, determination of riskfor disease, and paternity testing.
