It stands for the y-intercept. where it crosses the y axis ... this might help http://id.mind.net/~zona/mmts/functionInstitute/linearFunctions/lsif.html
Not every relation is a function. But every function is a relation. Function is just a part of relation.
The cubic function.
Range
A formula or graph are two ways to describe a math function. How a math function is described depends on the domain of the function or the complexity of the function.
AldosteroneAldosteroneMineralocorticoids
The layer of the suprarenal gland responsible for mineralocorticoid production is the zona glomerulosa.
zona glomerulosa: mineralocorticoids
zona glomerulosa/mineralocorticoids
Outer zona glomerulosa secrets the hormone called as aldosterone. Middle zona fasciculata secretes the hormone called as cortisol and hydrocortisone. Inner zona reticulosa secretes the androgens.
The zona reticularis produces androgens. The most important androgens such as:TestosteroneDihydrotestosterone (DHT)Androstenedione (Andro)Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
zona glomerulosa/mineralocorticoids
You have the cortex and medulla in the adrenal gland. You have zona glomerulosa, zona fasciculata and zona reticularis in the cortex. It mainly secrets the hormones cortisol and hydrocortisones along with little sex hormones.
ANP acts to reduce the water, sodium and adipose loads on the circulatory system, thereby reducing blood pressure. ANP has exactly the opposite function of the aldosterone secreted by the zona glomerulosa.
Aldosterone, secreted by the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal gland, will make your kidneys excrete more potassium and acid in urine, but it will make your kidneys absorb more sodium.
There are two parts to the adrenal gland, the outer portion called the Adrenal Cortex, and the inner portion called the Adrenal Medulla.
mineralocorticoid is synthesized in zona glomerulosa of adrenal cortex
