Cation are metals and anion are nonmetal except hydrogen because it has atomic number 1 and carbon is not cation or anion because it has 4 in outer most cell

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 4 months ago

Cations are ions that have a positive charge. The word “cation” comes from the Greek word ánō, which means “up.” Examples of cations include:

  • Silver: Ag+
  • Hydronium: H3O+
  • Ammonium: NH4+

Anions are ions with a negative charge. The word “anion” comes from the Greek word káto, meaning “down.” Examples of anions include:

  • Hydroxide anion: OH
  • Oxide anion: O2-
  • Sulfate anion: SO42-

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 4 months ago

(1) Pepsin: Pepsin is a proteolytic enzyme secreted in the stomach that is involved in the breakdown of proteins.

 (2) Bile: Bile helps break down fats into fatty acids and also acts as a medium for excretion of bilirubin, a by-product of the breakdown of RBC's.

DEFINE ATOMIC SIZE (ATOMIC RADIUS) - DEFINITION

<article>

Atomic Size (Atomic Radius) is the

distance between the nucleus and valence shell.

</article>

METALLIC AND NON-METALLIC PROPERTIES - DEFINITION

<article>The tendency of an element to lose electrons and form positive ions (cations) is called electropositive or metallic character. The tendency of an element to accept electrons to form an anion is called its non-metallic or electronegative character. In each period, metallic character of elements decreases as we move to the right. Elements to the left of the periodic table have a pronounced metallic character while those to the right have a non-metallic character. Conversely, non-metallic character increases from left to right.
As we move down the group the number of shells increases. This causes the effective nuclear charge to decrease due to the outer shells being further away: in effect the atomic size increases. The electrons of the outermost shell experience less nuclear attraction and so can lose electrons easily thus showing increased metallic character.</article>

Maniya Jain 5 years, 4 months ago

Electric current is defined as the rate of flow of electric charge. Or, electric current is the amount of charge flowing through a particular area in unit time and is given by:           I = Q / t The S.I unit of electric current is Ampere (A). The current through a conductor is said to be one ampere if one coulomb of charge flows through it in one second.

When an electric current is passed through a high resistance wire the resistance wire becomes very hot and produces heat this is called the heating effect of electric current

The main function of endocrine glands is to secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. Hormones are chemical substances that affect the activity of another part of the body (target site). In essence, hormones serve as messengers, controlling and coordinating activities throughout the body. 

Upon reaching a target site, a hormone binds to a receptor, much like a key fits into a lock. Once the hormone locks into its receptor, it transmits a message that causes the target site to take a specific action. Hormone receptors may be within the nucleus or on the surface of the cell.
Ultimately, hormones control the function of entire organs, affecting such diverse processes as growth and development, reproduction, and sexual characteristics. Hormones also influence the way the body uses and stores energy and control the volume of fluid and the levels of salts and sugar (glucose) in the blood. Very small amounts of hormones can trigger very large responses in the body.

Although hormones circulate throughout the body, each type of hormone influences only certain organs and tissues. Some hormones affect only one or two organs, whereas others have influence throughout the body. For example, thyroid-stimulating hormone, produced in the pituitary gland, affects only the thyroid gland. In contrast, thyroid hormone, produced in the thyroid gland, affects cells throughout the body and is involved in such important functions as regulating growth of cells, controlling the heart rate, and affecting the speed at which calories are burned. Insulin, secreted by the islet cells of the pancreas, affects the processing (metabolism) of glucose, protein, and fat throughout the body.

Most hormones are derived from proteins. Others are steroids, which are fatty substances derived from cholesterol.
To control endocrine functions, the secretion of each hormone must be regulated within precise limits. The body is normally able to sense whether more or less of a given hormone is needed.

Many endocrine glands are controlled by the interplay of hormonal signals between the hypothalamus, located in the brain, and the pituitary gland, which sits at the base of the brain. This interplay is referred to as the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. The hypothalamus secretes several hormones that control the pituitary gland.

The pituitary gland, sometimes called the master gland, in turn controls the functions of many other endocrine glands. The pituitary controls the rate at which it secretes hormones through a feedback loop in which the blood levels of other endocrine hormones signal the pituitary to slow down or speed up. So, for example, the pituitary gland senses when blood levels of thyroid hormone are low and releases thyroid stimulating hormone, which tells the thyroid gland to make more hormones. If the level gets too high, the pituitary senses that and decreases the amount of thyroid stimulating hormone, which then decreases the amount of thyroid hormone produced. This back-and-forth adjustment (feedback) keeps hormone levels in proper balance.

Many other factors can control endocrine function. For example, a baby sucking on its mother's nipple stimulates her pituitary gland to secrete prolactin and oxytocin, hormones that stimulate breast milk production and flow. Rising blood sugar levels stimulate the islet cells of the pancreas to produce insulin. Part of the nervous system stimulates the adrenal gland to produce epinephrine.

(a) The iris is the part of the eye that controls the amount of light entering the eye.

(b) The retina is the part of the eye on which images are formed.

(c) The ciliary muscles change the focal length of the eye lens.

Light passes through the front of the eye (cornea) to the lens. The cornea and the lens help to focus the light rays onto the back of the eye (retina). The cells in the retina absorb and convert the light to electrochemical impulses which are transferred along the optic nerve and then to the brain.

  • Genetic variation is an important force in evolution as it allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population.
  • Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism’s offspring).
  • Genetic variation is advantageous to a population because it enables some individuals to adapt to the environment while maintaining the survival of the population.
