BIO318 NWEST UPDATED 2025 ACTUAL FINAL EXAM
WITH COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
DETAILED ANSWERS ALREADY A+ GRADED
These are transported by the bloodstream, communicate long-distance,
and stimulate a physiological response
ANSWER -hormones
These are "local hormones", they secrete to nearby cells
Paracrine
ANSWER -Are Growth factors considered hormones or paracrine?
paracrine
These afre released by neurons, dfifuse across the synaptic cleft, and
bind to receptors on the next cell
neuronal/neurotransmitters
ANSWER -These are membrane bound and pass from cytoplasm to
cytoplasm
gap junctions
gap junctions are found mostly in which muscle and pass nutrients and
electrolytes
,ANSWER -smooth and cardiac muscle
secrete products through ducts
ANSWER -exocrine gland
exocrine glands are found where? (2)
ANSWER -skin, digestive tract
Is the digestion of food endocrine or exocrine?
ANSWER -exocrinne
What organs are exocrine glands found?
ANSWER -liver and pancreas
These have NO ducts and instead have a high density of capillaries
which secrete into the bloodstream
ANSWER -endocrine
Alteration of metabolism (Endocrine or exocrine)?
endocrine
ANSWER -secretion of bile in the liver (Endocrine or exocrine)?
exocrine
secretion of hormones in the liver (Endocrine or exocrine)?
endocrine
,ANSWER The liver is has endocrine or exocrine function?
BOTH!!!!
A cell receives synaptic signals from other neurons and produce AP...yet
secrete hormones into the bloodstream and electrical signals are
converted to hormone signals. How would we describe this cell?
ANSWER -Neuroendocrine
Describe the Endocrine system
ANSWER -glands, tissues, and cells that secrete hormones
What are steroids made from?
ANSWER -cholesterol
What are the sex steroids
ANSWER -eostrogen, progesterone, testosterone
A group of steroid hormones, including cortisol, released by the adrenal
glands at times of stress
ANSWER -corticosteroids
A hormone made from amino acids
ANSWERS -monamines
Examples of monamines
ANSWER -dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine, serotonin
, The hormones made of lots of amino acid chains is called a...
ANSWER -peptide
releasing and inhibing hormones of the hypothalamus are
ANSWER -peptides
4 ring backbone (Steroids, monoamines, or peptides?)
ANSWER -steroids
produced by transcription, translation, folding & modification (Steroids,
monoamines, or peptides?)
ANSWER -peptides
Found in ovaries, testes and adrenal gland (Steroids, monoamines, or
peptides?)
ANSWER -steroids
tyrosin is a (Steroids, monoamines, or peptides?)
ANSWER -monoamine
TH is made of 2 ....
ANSWER -tyrosine and iodine
A lack of dietary iodine causes what?
ANSWER -Goiter (TH disorder)
