HORMONES Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted directly into the blood, which carries them to organs and Tissues of the body to exert their functions. There are many types of hormones that act on different aspects of bodily functions and processes. Some of these include: Development and Growth Metabolism of food items Sexual function … Read more
BIOMOLECULES There is vast diversity of living organisms. The chemical compositon and metabolic reactions of the organisms appear to be similar. The composition of living Tissues and non-living matter also appear to be similar in qualitative analysis.Closer analysis reveals that the relative abundance of carbon, hydrogen and Oxygen is higher in living system. All forms … Read more

Endocrine Glands: harmone and their function The endocrine system is made up of glands that produce and secrete HORMONES, chemical substances produced in the body that regulate the activity of cells or organs. These hormones regulate the body’s Growth, Metabolism (the physical and chemical processes of the body), and sexual development and function. The hormones … Read more
Control And Coordination:Plants and animals All the living organisms respond and react to changes in the Environment around them. The changes in the environment to which the organisms respond and react are called stimuli such as Light, heat, cold, Sound, smell, touch etc. Coordination in plants Coordination refers to ordered working of different but interrelated … Read more
Reproductive systems The reproductive system in both males and females consists of structures that produce reproductive cells, or gametes, and secrete sex HORMONES. A gamete is a haploid cell that combines with another haploid gamete during fertilization. Sex hormones are chemical messengers that control sexual development and Reproduction. The male reproductive system consists … Read more
