| | | | | | | | | | | |
2. paracrine
|
3. autocrine
|
3 categories for hormone structure - Correct answer ✔1. amines/amino acids
| | | | | | | | | |
2. peptides, polypeptides & proteins (freely floating in bloodstream)
| | | | | | | |
3. steroids (transported in blood by carrier protein
| | | | | | |
what does the hypothalamus regulate? - Correct answer ✔homeostasis
| | | | | | | |
body temp |
hunger
behavior
emotion
pain
how do the hypothalamus and pituitary interact? - Correct answer ✔hormones
| | | | | | | | | | |
released from the hypothalamus stimulate hormone release from the pituitary
| | | | | | | | |
what are the 11 sources of hormones in the body - Correct answer
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
✔hypothalamus
,anterior pituitary |
posterior pituitary |
ovaries
testes
kidneys
thyroid
parathyroid
pancreas
adrenal cortex |
adrenal medulla |
What is CRH and what does CRH do to the anterior pituitary? - Correct answer
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
✔corticotropin releasing hormone; stimulates pituitary to release acth
| | | | | | |
what is acth and what does it do - Correct answer ✔Adrenocorticotropic
| | | | | | | | | | | |
hormone
- stimulate adrenal cortex to secrete corticosteroids
| | | | | |
which hormones are released by the posterior pituitary and what do they do? -
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Correct answer ✔ADH (increases reabsorption of H2O in kidney) and oxytocin
| | | | | | | | | | |
(stimulates breast milk ejection and contractions)
| | | | |
which hormones are released by the anterior pituitary - Correct answer ✔GH
| | | | | | | | | | |
ACTH
, FSH
LH
TSH
Prolactin
Which hormones are released by adrenal cortex and what do they do? - Correct
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
answer ✔aldosterone (increases Na absorption and K loss by kidney), cortisol
| | | | | | | | | | |
(regulates metabolism, blood glucose levels, anti-inflammatory, and decreases
| | | | | | | |
effects of stress), DHEA/androstenedione (converted to DHT and testosterone
| | | | | | | | |
for minimal androgenic activity)
| | |
which hormones are released from adrenal medulla and what do they do? -
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Correct answer ✔norepinephrine/epinephrine; neurotransmitters for SNS
| | | | |
which hormones are released by the thyroid and what do they do? - Correct
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
answer ✔thyroid hormone (TH) T3 and T4 ( increase metabolic rate,
| | | | | | | | | | |
protein/bone turnover; fetal/infant growth & development) & calcitonin
| | | | | | | |
(decreases blood calcium and phosphate levels)
| | | | |
which hormone is released by the parathyroid? - Correct answer ✔PTH -
| | | | | | | | | | | |
regulates serum calcium levels
| | |
which hormone is secreted by the pancreas and what do they do? - Correct
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
answer ✔insulin (decreases blood glucose), glucagon (increases blood glucose),
| | | | | | | | |
somatostatin (delays intestinal absorption)
| | |
