Question | Answer |
---|---|
Compares and Contrast how endocrine and exocrine glands work. | Endocrine Glands: No ducts; produce and release hormones into tissue fluids;Exocrine Glands: Does not release hormones; have ducts carry secretion to an epithelial surface or the mucosa of the digestive tract - |
Describe the role of a target cell and receptor sites. | Target Cells that have receptors for a certain hormone.Receptor recognize the hormone |
identifies the locations of receptor sites for lipid soluble and water soluble hormones. | The receptors for water-soluble hormones are embedded in the plasma membrane. receptor complexes bind to specific sites in the cell’s DNA and stimulate the transcription of specific genes |
describe 3 ways that hormone secretions are controlled | 1.) signals from the nervous system 2.) chemical changes in the blood 3.) other hormones |
Human Growth Hormonecauses the production of IGH insulin like growth hormones which causes the body cells to duplicate | causes the production of IGH insulin like growth hormones which causes the body cells to duplicate |

causes the production of IGH insulin like growth hormones which causes the body cells to duplicate | Human Growth Hormone hgH |
Stimulates the release of hormones from the thyroid gland using a negative feedback mechanism | Thyroid Stimulating Hormone TSH |
Stimulates the reproductive organs to produce follicles stimulates sperm production in males | Follicale Stimulating Hormone FSH |
Triggers milk production in mammary glands | Prolactin PRL or PIH and PRh |
Stimulates uterine contractions during labor stimulates lactation | Oxytocin |
Causes kidneys to retain more water increasing urine volume constricts arterioles raising BP | Anti Diuretic Hormone ADH |
Control of basal metabolic rate thus body energy use temperature and cell metabolism | T3 and T4 |
Increase blood glucose when it is low | Glucagon |
Lower blood glucose when it is high admits glucose into cells | Insulin |
Protein breakdown in muscle breakdown triglycerides decrease inflammation caused by white blood cells | Cortisol |
Increase functions for fight or flight syndrome works mostly on the heart | Epinephrine |
Same as epinephrine works on the rest of the body | Norepinephrine |
sex hormones regulate menstrual cycle , maintain preg, lactaion | Estrogen |
Sex hormones regulate men | |
