What else can I help you with?
How would lack of dietary iodine affect the negative feedback of the thyroid hormones?
bake me a cookie
How would you use the word parathyroid in a sentence?
The parathyroid is located in the neck.
In hashimoto's disease thyroid gland function is depressed would levels of T3 T4 be higher or lower than normal explain?
The levels of T3 and T4 would be lower than normal because there is deficiency of iodine, which is needed to produce these two hormones.
What iodine makes?
Iodine is reactive because it has 7 valence electrons and is unstable. It needs one more electron to get 8, which would give it a noble gas configuration, and which would make the iodine atom stable. Iodine reacts with other elements in order to gain the needed electron and therefore become stable.
What is the solvent and solution in tincture of iodine?
The solute would be iodine, and the solvent would be tincture
How many potassium ions and iodine ions would be needed to make a neutral compound?
One of each K+ + I- -----> KI.
How many moles of iodine are needed to react with 5 moles of potassium to create potassium iodide?
Since molecules of potassium contain only single potassium atoms, molecules of iodine contain two atoms, and moles of potassium iodide contain one atom of each element, 2.5 moles of iodine are needed to react completely with 5 moles of potassium.
How is iodine important to living organisms?
A complete answer to this question would be extensive. Briefly, iodine deficiency causes improper function of the thyroid gland, which in turn causes several other medical and health issues/problems, both in humans and higher animals. Prominent among these problems are hyperthyroidism, mental retardation, goiter and birth defects.
What hormones works with the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the blood?
The Thyroid gland is not involved in blood calcium levels to a greater extend. However, the parathyroid hormones regulate blood calcium levels very tightly. This is made possible with help from vitamin D.In fact: removing the parathyroid glands would result in death in a matter of a few days, most likely due to hypocalcemia. This would result in muscle cramps, and death would likely be caused by spasm of the diaphragm muscle and/or spasm in the muscles surrounding the larynx resulting in suffocation.
How do you prepare 0.02N iodine solution?
To prepare a 0.02N iodine solution, you would need to weigh out the appropriate amount of iodine (I2) and dissolve it in a solvent, such as distilled water or an alcohol like ethanol, to make the desired volume, typically 1 liter. The exact weight of iodine needed would depend on the molar mass of iodine (253.8 g/mol) and the desired normality (0.02N). Make sure to wear appropriate personal protective equipment and handle iodine carefully, as it is toxic and can cause skin irritation.
What is the solute and solvent of tincture of iodine?
The solute would be iodine, and the solvent would be tincture
How would you describe the parathyroid glands?
They are a group of 4 or 6 glands located in the neck behind the thyroid gland that secrete parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels.
