A test that can assess the thyroid function by determining the amount of iodine taken into thyroid cells is known by the abbreviation of RAIU or the Radio Active Iodine Uptake Test. The RAIU is used in diagnosis of thyroid problems.
Answer:
Every winter, Arctic sea ice grows around the pole, its frozen tendrils threading along northern coasts. Right now sea ice has just passed its peak coverage for the year, and will begin to shrink with the coming of spring. It’s a crucial time for polar bears, whose food supply is inextricably linked to sea ice.
And in recent decades, sea ice has been shrinking faster than ever. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, 2019 has the seventh-lowest sea ice cover in the Arctic since they began collecting satellite data 40 years ago.
This year “doesn't break any records, but it's the trend that matters,” says University of Alberta polar bear scientist Andrew Derocher. “The downward trend in Arctic sea ice across all months is the concern,” he says, and “now we wait to see what spring conditions bring.” (Read more about global warming’s link to polar bears.)
A cold spring allows ice to linger, giving polar bears easier access to one of their favorite foods: seals. A warm spring cuts short the availability of their food super-highway....
Positive control is Ginger root (should indicate the presence of amylase)
Negative control is Cellulose (should not contain amylase)
Here the presence of amylase is tested by testing the presence of starch using an IKI solution. Saliva is included in this experiment because it contains the enzyme amylase.
