Explanation:

What is the function of the hypothalamus?

The main crucial function of the hypothalamus is to keep our body in a health balanced state which is biologically refereed to as homeostasis.

Our bodies always strive to keep this state at all times such as responding to hunger which is a way of the body saying to us that its needs fuel in forms of nutrients that will be supplied by the food we eat and then our body will reach homeostasis.

The hypothalamus is like a mediator between our nervous system and endocrine to ensure that we achieve this state and the following functions are achieved through this process:

- regulations of our body temperature

- Drinking water to quench our thirst

- maintaining our appetite

- controling our emotions

-blood pressure and heart rate

-balancing our bodily fluid

Various system in our body signals our brain to respond to situation that need our attention as they do this signal hypothalamus is alerted to let us know what imbalance exist in our body at that moment and hypothalamus will release correct hormones that will balance things for us .

For example if we are cold the hypothalamus will release a hormone that will make us shiver so that we can create our own warmth.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,

well it depends i think people around the world are coming around to gay marriage. but if you are talking abortion then wow, so much to talk about. such as men thinking they have the right to choose if women can, the fact there are health concerns if the women can't get one, and many more arguments to discuss. so i would definitely say abortion would be a much more interesting topic.
