The pineal gland is an endocrine gland, like the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, and pancreas. Like other endocrine glands, it secretes a hormone -- in this case melatonin.The pineal gland was the last endocrine gland to have its function unveiled, partially because of its small size, roughly that of a pea, and its structural uniformity.he pineal gland is located near the center of the brain. Shamans have claimed that the pineal gland is a connection between the earthly realm and a spirit world. Endocrine glands include the adrenal gland. The pineal gland secretes melatonin, which promotes sleep.
The figure is an edge view of three charged metal electrodes: 1. Draw a graph of versus over the region. Hint: Assume that at. [along the y-axis, it's V(kV). along the x-axis it's x(cm).
Standard Electrode Potentials. In an electrochemical cell, an electric potential is created between two dissimilar metals. This potential is a measure of the energy per unit charge which is available from the oxidation/reduction reactions to drive the reaction.It is customary to visualize the cell reaction in terms of two half-reactions, an oxidation half-reaction and a reduction half-reaction.ince the tabulated standard electrode potentials are reduction potentials, the one which is most negative will need to be reversed in sign to get its oxidation potential. When that is done, it is clear that the theoretical standard cell potential for the zinc-copper cell is 1.10 volts.
