When an individual's cortisol levels are low, such as in the case of people with Addison's disease, the hypothalamus region of the brain releases corticotrophin-releasing hormones. This causes the pituitary gland to also secrete another hormone called, adenocortocotropic hormone into the bloodstream. <span>When the adrenal glands detect these hormones, they secrete cortisol, causing blood levels of cortisol to rise.</span>

What makes water “neutral “ (pH of 7)
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Even in pure water ions tend to form due to random processes (producing some H+ and OH- ions). The amount of H+ that is made in pure water is about equal to a pH of 7. That's why 7 is neutral. ... In pure water near room temperature, the concentration of H+ is about 10-7 moles/liter, which gives a pH of 7.
