articles to university websites. Google Scholar has peer-reviewed content with abstracts and full text articles from all over the world. The articles come in many languages and in a vast amount of disciplines. The article that I searched for was “Thyroid disorders and fertility”(Karaca & Akpak‚ 2015). What I truly enjoy about using Google Scholar is one does not have to create a sign in profile‚ install add on software or have to pay for the information being searched. Basically‚ it is a site

gigantism. Another hormone of the anterior pituitary is prolactin‚ also called lactogenic hormone (LH). This hormone promotes breast development and milk secretion in females. A third hormone is thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The function of TSH is to control secretions of hormones from the thyroid gland. A fourth hormone is adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). This hormone controls the secretion of hormones from the adrenal glands. There are three more hormones produced in the anterior lobe

Endocrine System Chapter 13 Study Guide Name ( ) Revision 2 OVERVIEW The endocrine system‚ like the nervous system‚ controls body activities to maintain a relatively constant internal environment. The methods used by these two systems are different. This chapter describes the difference between endocrine and exocrine glands‚ the location of the endocrine glands‚ and the hormones they secrete (objectives 1 and 6). It explains the nature of hormones‚ the substances that function as hormones

Chemistry Changes Everything: ¹ᶟ¹I - Iodine¹ᶟ¹ An isotope is two or more forms of an element where the nuclei of the element has more neutrons than protons and normally each element only has one stable isotope of the element. Changing the neutrons in the atom also changes the atomic mass but not chemical properties. Radioisotopes are radioactive versions of an isotope where the atom or element has an unstable nuclei therefore emitting radiation. An unstable nuclei is created when there is either

HORMONES Hormones are a class of regulatory biochemicals produced in all multicellular organisms by glands‚ and transported by the circulatory system to a distant target organ to coordinate its physiology and behavior. They serve as a major form of communication between different organs and tissues. Hormones regulate a variety of physiological and behavioral activities‚ including digestion‚ metabolism‚ respiration‚ tissue function‚ sensory perception‚ sleep‚excretion‚ lactation‚ stress‚ growth and
