Nonsteroid hormones include peptides, proteins, glycoproteins, and amines - ANS-True
The pineal gland is - ANS-attached to the thalamus
Which hormone requires a releasing hormone from the hypothalamus for its secretion? -
ANS-Prolactin
Diabetes insipidus is caused by - ANS-ADH deficiency
What hormone primarily affects the reproductive organs? - ANS-follicle-stimulating
hormone
A sweat gland is an example of a(n) ___ gland - ANS-exocrine
Hormones from the adrenal medulla increase - ANS-blood pressure, heart rate,
breathing rate
Tropic hormones - ANS-stimulate certain endocrine glands to secrete hormones
The specificity of hormone action derives from - ANS-target cell receptors that are
unique for each hormone
Hormones that the posterior pituitary secretes are synthesized in the -
ANS-hypothalamus
The sex hormones from the adrenal cortex are primarily androgens - ANS-True
A hormone is a __ and the target cell is __ - ANS-molecule that has a metabolic effect
on another cell; a cell that has receptors for specific hormones
With age, - ANS-levels of GH decrease but ADH increase
The hormone that stimulates calcium deposition into bone is - ANS-calcitonin
Steroid hormones - ANS-are soluble in lipids, combine with protein receptor molecules,
cause messenger RNA synthesis
