your brain called the pituitary gland‚ talk about a few symptoms one may have if their pituitary gland is not functioning as it should‚ and what type of tests are done to help solve these issues. So have you ever just felt off‚ not like yourself‚ sluggish or irritable? Well good news it is probably just the pituitary gland that is acting up like a wayward teenager. While I may make light of this‚ it could be something extremely serious. So what is this pituitary gland? According to the Society for

Mammary gland tumors are neoplastic tumors of the mammary glands. These tumors are more common in canine and feline female animals and rarely occur in large domestic animals. Mice are also affected by mammary gland tumors. Although the incidence of mammary gland tumors are more often seen in female canines than female felines‚ the malignancy rate is higher in felines. The cause of mammary gland tumors in mice can be from an oncornavirus (retrovirus). Hormones may be a cause of mammary gland tumors

a natural bodily function. Your sweat glands are connected to your nervous system‚ and they are controlled by your brain. Your body releases water when you are hot. The sweat keeps you cool when you are exposed to the elements. Sweat is odorless‚ but it produces an odor when it mixes with bacteria. Armpits and Sweat Glands We all have sweat glands. Armpits have a special type of sweat glands. The apocrine gland secretes carbohydrates and proteins. The glands are developed in puberty‚ and they produce

Abstract: Enzymes help determine a phenotype through proteins. The experiment presented tests how enzymes affect the pigment in the eye of Drosophila. What was resulted in this experiment is that when certain enzymes change‚ a mutation is created‚ causing the change of pigments in the different Drosophila’s eyes. The production of one enzyme is one gene and a mutation of this gene can cause an enzyme to be inactive which leads to the phenotype changing. Introduction: George W. Beadle and Edward L

The Pituitary Gland and Dwarfism The Pituitary Gland is situated at the base of the brain and it produces hormones which control growth. Too large an amount of these hormones causes giantism‚ a condition where facial features‚ hands‚ etc. become abnormally large. Too little causes dwarfism‚ where the overall stature of a person is very small. Dwarfism is the condition of being undersized‚ or less than 127 cm (50 in) in height. Some dwarfs have been less than 64 cm (24 in) in height when fully

APPENDIX 5 - Writing Reports Report 1: Drosophila F1 Generation Report General Notes: This report is very much a practice run to get you used to this style of report writing‚ rather than simply filling in lab sheets. It should not be a long report (no longer than these notes‚ in fact). Scientific writing is not like writing essays in other genre. In many ways it is easier! There are three important rules to scientific writing and if you adhere to these‚ the rest is quite easy: 1. Sentences
