Endo Quiz 3- Questions and Answers
1. the amount of - rate and duration of secretion
hormone that - rate of delivery by circulation
gets to a target is - rate of hormone degradation
influenced by: - half-life in blood
- how much is secreted in each pulse and pulse frequency
2. Integration coordination of physiological demands into balanced groups of responses
3. integration at cel- - different concurrent signals
lular level - modulation of responding cells
4. integration at - signals coordinated to achieve physiological endpoints
whole organism
level
5. Synergism when multiple hormones interact and the effect is stronger than adding together
their separate effects
6. Permissiveness - permissive hormones allow another hormone to exert its full effect
- helps active hormones reach their full potential
7. antagonistic hor- Two hormones that have opposite effects
mones ex. insulin and glucagon
8. sensitivity to hor- acuity of cell to respond in relation to signals intensity/concentration
mones
9. dose-response - the lowest hormone conc. needed to produce a measurable response
curve: threshold
10. dose response - no further changes in our response will occur even with an increased hormone
curve: maximum conc.
