Compensatory growth (organ) kidneys. Along with the kidneys, compensatory growth has also been characterized in a number of other tissues and organs including: A large number of growth factors and hormones are involved with compensatory growth, but the exact mechanism is not fully understood and probably varies between different organs. Nevertheless, angiogenic growth factors which control the growth of blood vessels are particularly important because blood flow significantly determines the maximum growth of an organ. Compensatory growth may also refer to the accelerated growth following a period of slowed growth, particularly as a result of nutrient deprivation. Compensatory growth (organ) Compensatory growth is
Water organ 1954 that air was supplied to the water organ by aspiration, which was the same method used in forges and smelting works in the 16th and 17th centuries. Aspiration is the process by which air is drawn into an opening into which water flows. For the water organ, a small pipe is arranged so that one end is open to the air and the other extends into a larger pipe that contains flowing water supplied by a stream, pond or stabilizing reservoir. The longer the vertical drop of the water, the more forceful the suction will be and the greater
