Endocrine system Endocrinology is the study of chemical communication systems that provide the means to control a huge number of physiologic processes. Like other communication networks‚ endocrine systems contain transmitters‚ signals and receivers that are called‚ respectively‚ hormone producing cells‚ hormones and receptors. The first step in understanding endocrinology is to explore the meaning of such terms as hormone‚ receptor and target cell‚ and to obtain an understanding of how chemical

Treatment | Why? | How? | What? | Pros | Cons | Ovulation induction(OI) | OI is used when the female fails to ovulate this may be due to different reasons. | Ovulation is stimulated by FSH and LH. OI treatment synthetically provides FSH and LH if the OI is caused by a direct problem with the ovary then OI can not be used as treatment. | 1. Clomiphene-increases FSH levels stimulates the P.gland 2. Gondatrophin given by injection increases LH and FSH levels | 1. Possibility of fertilisation

An ecosystem is a biological environment consisting of all the organisms living in a particular area‚ as well as all the nonliving or abiotic‚ physical components of the environment with which the organisms interact‚ such as air‚ soil‚ water and sunlight. In a typical ecosystem‚ plants and other photosynthetic organisms are the producers that provide the food. (Leibold) Ecosystems can be permanent or temporary and they usually form a number of food webs. Examples of ecosystem include: Marine Ecosystems:

Test 1 1. Polypeptide starts on a free ribosome. In the first step‚ the signal sequence emerges from the ribosome and binds to the SRP‚ which stops further translocation until the SRP-ribosome-nascent chain complex can make contact with the ER membrane. The SRP-ribosome then binds to an SRP receptor within the ER membrane during step 2. In the third step SRP is released and the association of the ribosome with a translocon of the ER membrane occurs. These latter events are accompanied by the reciprocal
