Answer: B. development of female sex
Development of female sex characteristic is not associated with the amount of cortisol in the body.
Explanation:
Cortisol is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal gland. It facilitates stress response, regulates blood sugar level and helps fight infections. High cortisol level leads to Cushing syndrome and low cortisol level leads to Addison disease.
Obesity is a symptom of Cushing syndrome while weight loss is a symptom of Addison disease. Thus levels of cortisol can affect body weight as well. When in a stressful situation, our body pumps excess cortisol.
Cortisol level in our body is generally high in the mornings and low in the midnight.
Ike is at the beach watching the waves in the ocean. Ike notices that some of the waves are short. Other waves are very tall and come up high above the water. Two waves that are different heights because They have different amplitudes.
Answer: Option (D) is correct
Explanation:
The different heights of the waves are due to their different amplitudes. The Amplitude of a particular wave depends upon the amount of energy being carried by waves. It the waves carry more energy than their amplitude will be higher.
But if energy carried by a wave is less than the wave will have a low amplitude. The Amplitude shows the distance covered from the rest position to peak position.
Yes, it is diffusion !
Diffusion is the process in which gas, through random movement of particles, tends to fill up the whole volume of the container in which it is placed. So a similar process would lead the smoke, which is in form of gas (or light particles), to fill in the whole room in which it is contained.
