In the 1946 elections to the Indian constituent assembly, the Congress lost the Muslim vote to the Muslim League; it reluctantly accepted the partition of the Indian subcontinent and the formation of the state of Pakistan.

ACTH is a hormone produced in the anterior pituitary gland that stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), and aldosterone.
The signaling molecule ACTH is released by the pituitary gland in the brain and released into the bloodstream. When it reaches the adrenal cortex, it stimulates the production of cortisol. This particular signaling cascade is a great example of the complex ways that organelles do important jobs that are not often explored when generally defining their function. In the movie we see a simplified version of how it all works.
