Answer:
Iodine
Explanation:
This is a trace element needed for the synthesis of the two thyroid hormone ; T4- thyroxine and T3-triiodothyronine. Four iodine molecules are added in T4 synthesis, and three for T3 synthesis. Generally T4 is the major hormone produced, but biologically transformed into active form T3.
Iodine majorly and selenium are the two trace elements needed for thyroid hormones synthesis. Therefore required amount of iodine is important in daily diet. iIn adequate supply of this leads to under production of iodine called hypothyroidism. poor brain development ( especially in kids),and goiter.
Sea foods . eggs, poultry seaweeds are rich sources of iodine.
Conversely, when excessive amount is present in the blood, autoimmune thyroid diseases can occur,including cancer developments in the thyroid gland due to hyper cell activities.
Both the neurons carry afferent information. The axons of the neurons are the afferent nerve fibers, and carry the information to the central nervous system. They are a part of the peripheral nervous system. These neurons are also called as sensory neurons.
No,not all organs are weighed on a triple beam balance.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Usually smaller sized organs like adrenals, thyroid are commonly used to be weighed on triple beam balance, whereas larger organs like lungs, liver and heart can only be weighed on grocer's scale.
- Only weight of the smaller body organs can be measured very precisely with the help of triple beam balance, where as if we measure the weight of the larger organs using the same triple beam balance,then the resultant value thus obtained will not be accurate enough.
- Hence organs are weighed on a triple beam balance.
