Eicosanoids are often thought of as local hormones. They have a variety of effects on your body. In this lesson, you will learn about the functions of three important eicosanoids: prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.icosanoids work like hormones, but they do not like to travel. Eicosanoids go by the nickname 'local hormones' because they act on cells close to their site of production. Eicosanoids also rapidly break down, so they are not able to travel very far.
The lowest point on earth is located on the shore of the Dead Sea, on the Israel-Jordan border. The altitude of this point ranges from 394 meters (1,292 ft.) to 400 meters (1,312 ft.) below sea level. Time is the reason this value has changed.
As the team explained, this is not because the Moon is changing or expanding, it's simply because the LOLA profile coverage increases every month. Now, on Earth, the highest point is at the summit of Mount Everest, which is 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) above sea level. Well, the lunar highest point is 1938 meters higher than that of the Earth. The LOLA team have first narrowed the spot to a small area, and the LROC team commanded a NAC stereo pair on August 12, 2010, to get an even higher resolution measurement of the raising and coordinates of the highest point.
