Can men and women be just friends without any sexual tension between them? I don’t believe so. I believe‚ both from personal experience and from several scholarly sources‚ that there is always‚ at some point‚ a sexual attraction between two people of the opposite sex who have a friendly‚ pleasant relationship. There are too many natural human instincts that drive us to be sexually attracted to a person for male-female friends to not ever experience physical attraction towards each other. From my

(hCG) Human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone that can be detected in the urine or blood of both males and females. It is more often seen in pregnant women but can also be found in cancerous tumors of the uterus and testicles. HCG aides in establishing pregnancy and has also been used here lately in some forms of weight loss programs although not always approved. Cushing’s Disease Cushing syndrome occurs in the body when there is a high exposure to the hormone cortisol over an excessive period of

neither inherently good nor evil. It is our brain development‚ upbringing‚ culture‚ and environment that determines where people are morally. There are several reasons why it cannot be argued that humans are inherently good. One reason is that oxytocin‚ a hormone found in the bloodstream‚ makes us feel empathy‚ and is found in 95% of people tested when they receive a positive social signal. If it is only found in 95% of the people they tested‚

The hypothalamus of the brain monitors the body’s fluid salt concentration and responds with a signal to take in fluid when water levels are low or salt concentration is high. The body produces two hormones‚ antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and aldosterone‚ to help maintain hydration. Antidiuretic hormone is released by the pituitary gland in the brain to signal the kidneys to retain water. When ADH causes water reabsorption from the kidney tubules‚ the salts and wastes are concentrated in what will eventually

blood. A steroid hormone called aldosterone is secreted by the adrenal cortex in respond to rennin secreted by the kidney cells to stimulate potassium excretion by active reabsorption of sodium in distal and collecting ducts. Aldosterone increase active secretion of potassium in distal convoluted tubules and also stimulates the reabsorption of sodium on collecting ducts. Antidiuretic hormone also helps to regulate the concentration of sodium and potassium in blood. Antidiuretic hormone is secreted to

(male sex hormones). These androgens cause the male to develop testes and a penis instead of ovaries and a uterus. The androgens also cause the male brain to develop differently from the female. A biopsychologist would argue that it is these differences in brain development‚ and the differences in brain activity caused by the secretion of androgens in adulthood‚ that cause men to behave differently from women (e.g. acting more aggressively). Women and men produce different sex hormones in varying

Endocrine system The Endocrine system is very important to our body. This system regulates our mood‚ growth‚ metabolism‚ tissue development‚ sexual functions and reproductive process. It is a very complex system with many different hormones and glands. I am going to write about the pituitary gland and thyroid. The pituitary gland is very often considered to be the most important glad in the Endocrine system. The Thyroid produces thyroxine andtriiodothyronine. The Pituitary gland is no bigger

“What are the effects of specific gravity‚ urine output volume‚ and salt concentration when you ingest a hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ and isotonic solution?” Specific Gravity: Is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density (mass of the same unit volume) of a reference substance. Apparent specific gravity is the ratio of the weight of a volume of the substance to the weight of an equal volume of the reference substance. Urine specific gravity results fall between 1.002 and 1.030 if your kidneys

McGonigal also brings up oxytocin‚ a hormone that she describes as the “cuddle hormone.” This hormone is good‚ and has positive actions within your brain. Well‚ oxytocin is actually a stress hormone. McGonigal talked about another study which found that spending time socializing and caring for others can also create stress related resilience. The study concluded
