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).
The electroscope can also be charged without touching it to a charged object, by electrostatic induction. If a charged object is brought near the electroscope terminal, the leaves also diverge, because the electric field of the object causes the charges in the electroscope rod to separate.hen the metal terminal is touched with a charged object, the gold leaves spread apart in a 'V'. This is because some of the charge on the object is conducted through the terminal and metal rod to the leaves.
