Age of Adolescence - NCERT solutions for class 8 science

Age of Adolescence - NCERT solutions for class 8 science 

The endocrine system is one of the organ systems that cause us to experience all these emotions. In this article for Class 8 science, we will discuss Endocrine system and hormones in detail. You can visit our previous article  8th Class science “Cell its structure, and its function”.
Endocrine System
It is the collection of specialized organs that secrete particular chemical substances called glands. These glands are located at specific places inside our bodies. The chemical substances released by these glands are called hormones. Hormones are released directly into the bloodstream and act as chemical messengers.
The major glands that make up the human endocrine system are pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, pancreas, ovaries, and testes.
Below is the diagrammatic representation of the human endocrine system
The pituitary gland –It is located at the base of the brain. It is called the master gland of the endocrine system because it releases hormones that control the activities of the other endocrine glands.
The adrenal Gland-It is called the gland of emergency because it releases the hormone epinephrine or adrenaline which prepares the body to act when we are stressed or in a dangerous situation. This hormone makes us experience emotional states such as anger and excitement.

Magnetic and non-magnetic material Class 6 Science

Magnetic and non-magnetic material  Class 6 Science A magnet is a substance that is drawn to certain magnetic materials like iron, cobalt, and nickel. Magnets have the ability to draw iron to them. Natural magnets are rocks that naturally draw iron. Non-magnetic materials include things like wood, rubber, coins, feathers, leather, etc. that are not drawn to iron. Magnet characteristics It pulls magnetic materials, such as iron. The magnet's two ends are referred to as its poles. The magnet's diametrically opposed poles are drawn together. Heating, hammering, or dropping causes it to lose its characteristics. On the basis of properties types of Magnets Temporary magnets are those magnets that are magnetic for only a little duration. Typically, iron, cobalt, or nickel are used to make them. When they are close to the powerful magnet, they act like a magnet. When they are yanked away from the powerful magnet, they stop being magnetic. Permanent magnets are magnets that have magne...

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name

What are Noble Gases? Example and noble gases name Noble Gases Noble gases, sometimes known as inert gases or erosions, are part of the modern periodic table's 18th group. This group is made up of the following individuals: Helium is a kind of gas (He) Neon (Ne) Argon is a gas (Ar) Krypton  (Kr) Xenon is a kind of xenon gas (Xe) Radon is a gas that can cause cancer (Rn) Noble gases exist in a gaseous state under typical temperature and pressure conditions. Because all noble gases have stable electronic structures, they have very little chemical reactivity. They are monoatomic gases that do not readily form molecules. 'ns2np6' represents the basic electrical configuration of noble gases. As a result, noble gases' outermost valence shells can be deemed 'complete.' The chemical inertness of the group of 18 elements is due to this. Because of the stability of certain elements, these gases form a group. These stable elements' crusts are totally filled.
