What is the major stimulus for the thirst mechanism?

The major stimulus for the thirst mechanism is an increase in the concentration of salts and other solutes in the blood, detected by osmoreceptors in the brain. When blood osmolality rises above a certain threshold, signals are sent to the brain to trigger the sensation of thirst, prompting us to drink water and restore fluid balance in the body.

Is it true thirst is a good indicator for the need for fluid in most lactating women?

No, thirst may not always be a reliable indicator of the need for fluid in lactating women. It is important for lactating women to stay hydrated to ensure an adequate milk supply and overall well-being. It is recommended to drink water regularly throughout the day, even if thirst is not present.


How does the reaction of 1-bromobutane with sodium methoxide predominantly result in elimination products?

The reaction of 1-bromobutane with sodium methoxide predominantly results in elimination products due to the strong base nature of sodium methoxide, which favors the E2 elimination mechanism over the SN2 substitution mechanism. This leads to the formation of alkenes as the major products.

When an initial stimulus produces a response that exaggerates stimulus called what mechanism?

Exaggerating the stimulus is also seen as amplifying the stimulus. This is seen in outer ear hair cells.The mechanism you refer to is probably a positive feedback mechanism: more of the stimulus causes more of the stimulus. This is in contrast to a negative feedback mechanism, whereby more stimulus results in processes that strive to attenuate (lessen) that stimulus.
