Are electrolyte and hormones same?

No, hormones and electrolytes are totally different kind of things.However there are some specific hormones involved in the regulation of electrolyte effects. One should ask this in the 'Human physiology' catagory.


What is the same of the gland that sits in the sella turcica?

The gland that sits in the sella turcica is called the pituitary gland. It is often referred to as the "master gland" because it produces and regulates hormones that control various bodily functions.


What plants contains pherramones?

Plants do not contain pheromones. Pheromones are chemical signals that are typically produced by animals to communicate with others of the same species. Plants, on the other hand, use different types of chemical signals such as hormones to regulate growth, development, and responses to the environment.


Why pheromone is called ectohormone?

Pheromones are called external hormones (ectohormones) because they act like hormones but on an animal different from the one that produces them. but this term is obsolete now because pheromones are no longer considered as hormones.


How Hormones and feedback mechanism in the same sentence?

Hormones are chemical messengers produced by glands in the endocrine system that regulate various physiological processes, while feedback mechanisms are regulatory systems that monitor hormone levels and physiological conditions to maintain homeostasis. In a feedback mechanism, elevated hormone levels may inhibit further hormone production (negative feedback), whereas low levels may stimulate hormone release (positive feedback). This interplay ensures that bodily functions remain balanced and responsive to internal and external changes.

What is the difference between pheromone and hormones?

Pheromones are chemical signals released by an organism to influence the behavior of others of the same species. Hormones are chemical substances produced by glands in the body that regulate various physiological processes. Pheromones are used for communication between individuals, while hormones regulate internal functions within an organism.

What is the use of static method?

Static methods are not specific to each instance of a class. This allows you to have functions which return the same output for the same input for each instance of the class.


Is FSH steroid or hormone?

First off, steroids and hormones are not mutually exclusive groups. The term "steroid" reflect a molecule's chemical structure -- all steroids share the same chemical backbone of cholesterol, which is why they are placed in the same group. The term "hormone" refers specifically to the molecule's function. A hormone is any chemical signal that travels via the bloodstream. Its chemical structure can be that of a steroid (hence we often talk about steroid hormones), it can be a protein or small peptide (hence protein and peptide hormones), or it can be in another class altogether (such as the catecholaminergic hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline). Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is secreted in the bloodstream by the pituitary gland and signals events to occur in distant target organs; thus FSH is a hormone. However, it is made of many amino acids strung together; thus FSH is a protein. So FSH is a protein hormone. Hope that helps.


Is effexor an amphetamine?

Technically yes; they belong to the same chemical class known as phenethylamines.


Only public member functions can access public member data TrueFalse?

False. Public member data is accessible to all functions, whether they be public, protected or private members of the same class, or they are outside of the class completely.


What is the use of functions in java?

Same as in other languages. To organize commands into logical pieces. However, in Java the functions are called "methods". This is related to the fact that in Java, methods or functions are defined as part of a class.


Is it possible to access the private variable in CPP from outside the class?

Private variables can only be accessed from outside of a class by using any public function of that same class. Or this can be accomplished by using Friend functions.


Are enzymes the same as hormones?

no


How are the husbandsof upper class girls chosen?

Usually by association with people of the same class system. They are invited to functions, parties and other social events frequented by people of similar upbringings.


How do virtual functions differ from pure virtual functions?

Virtual functions is a function that can be overridden in inheriting class with the same signature (function name, parameters number, parameters types and return type);Pure virtual function is function that does not have implementation and if class has pure virtual function is called abstract. It is not possible to instantiate that class. Some other class must inherit it and define the body for it (implement). In other words class only have function prototype/declaration(signature) and no definition(implementation).
