The Normal rat had the fastest BMR. 2 Why did the metabolic rates differ between the normal rat and the surgically altered rats? How well did the results compare with your prediction? ___ The BMRs differed because the surgically altered rats were missing

fluoridation has little to no benefit in preventing dental cavities” (Mercola1). What is interesting is that for all of the health complications that come along with consuming fluoride like lowered IQ’s‚ fluorosis‚ bone weakness and fractures‚ immune and endocrine dysfunction‚ the little dental benefit‚ that may not be true‚ cannot come close to the health related issues that come with it (Mercola1). The rates of dental caries are actually going downward‚ despite what the CDC and ADA says about fluoridation

Above the kidneys are two yellowish- orange colored glands that are approximately two and half by one inch called the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands play a very important role in secreting hormones and protecting the body from stress. The adrenal glands are composed of two parts‚ the adrenal cortex and the adrenal medulla. The adrenal cortex is the outer part of the adrenal gland that produces steroid hormones that regulate many different body functions. Not only that‚ but a hormone called aldosterone

threatened or perceived to be so; homeostasis is re-established by a complex repertoire of behavioral and physiological adaptive responses of the organism Our biological stress response was designed for survival and is regulated by both the neural and endocrine (hormonal) systems. Fundamentally‚ both systems are communication systems that receive sensory information from various sources (eyes‚ ears‚ skin‚ blood‚ etc.) and transmit appropriate responses to specific targets once information has been processed
