Question With Complete Solution
How does the adrenal gland respond to stress? The adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine
and norepinephrine in response to short-term stress.
Jet lag occurs when a person moves rapidly from one time zone to another, causing conflict
between the body's biological rhythm and the new cycle of light and dark. Some scientists
suspect that jet lag may result from disruption of the daily cycle of secretion of the hormone
known as _____. melatonin
Which category of signal exerts its effects on target cells by binding to membrane-bound
receptor proteins? neurohormones
Different body cells can respond differently to the same peptide hormones because a
target cell's response is determined by the components of its signal transduction pathways.
The endocrine glands include the parathyroid glands.
Testosterone is an example of an androgen.
A cell with membrane-bound proteins that selectively bind a specific hormone is called that
hormone's target cell
