Pre-lab Quiz Results
1 Which of the following statements about metabolism is false?
You correctly answered: All of the energy from metabolism is ultimately stored in the chemical
bonds of ATP.
2 Thyroxine is
You correctly answered: the most important hormone for maintaining the metabolic rate and body
temperature.
3 Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is
You correctly answered: produced in the pituitary gland.
4 An injection of TSH to an otherwise normal animal will cause which of the following?
You correctly answered: goiter development.

, Predict Questions
1 Predict Question 1: Make a prediction about the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of the remaining rats
compared with the BMR of the normal rat you just measured.
Your answer: The hypophysectomized (Hypox) rat's BMR will be higher than the normal rat's BMR.
2 Predict Question 2: What do you think will happen after you inject thyroxine into the three rats?
