|
||||
| Which chemical hormone group(s) bind to receptors on the target cell membrane? In the cytoplasm or nucleus? | show 🗑
|
||||
| How does the negative feedback system control the secretion of many hormones? | show 🗑
|

| Clinical Application: Growth Hormone (GH) | show 🗑
|
||||
| Through what mechanism does the hypothalamus control the production or release of hormones from the pituitary gland? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Anterior-a portal system by releasing or inhibiting factors (hormones) controlling production and release of hormones within the adenohypophysis. Posterior-more direct through nerve fibers (axons) delivering hormones for storage and eventual release.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Many of its hormones direct the activity of other endocrine glands around the body.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Growth of bone and muscle. Regulated the metabolism of proteins (anabolism-synthesis of proteins) materials for growth, regeneration, and repair of tissues, carbohydrates, and lipids (release) catabolism (breakdown) for energy productions

| show | teat or nipple stimulation. Nursing or milking.
🗑
|
||||
| Do FSH and LH play important roles in male animals? If so, what are they | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | It prevents it by telling the kidneys to reabsorb more water from urine they are producing back into the bloodstream
🗑
|
||||
| show | It cause an increased thirst (polydipsia) and more water to be released by the kidneys into the urine (polydipsia). Diabetes Insipidus is cause by a deficiency of ADH. Symptoms: large amounts of dilute urine, large quantities of water consumption,
🗑
|
||||
| show | (lag) That is how long it takes for the sensory stimulation to reach the brain and signal the hypothalamus to release oxytocin from the posterior pituitary and for the oxytocin to reach the mammary glands via the blood circulation.
🗑
|
||||
| What hormone plays an important role in helping an animal maintain its body temperature under cold environmental conditions? How does it produce its effects? | show 🗑
|
||||
| How do clinical signs of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism relate to the normal function of thyroid hormone? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Calcitonin & Parathyroid Hormone: Calcitonin restricts the release of calcium and potassium from bone thus preventing hypercalcemia. Hypocalcemia is prevented by the release of parathyroid hormone.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Glucocorticoid: hyperglycemic result. Maintains blood pressure, and helps the body resist the effects of stress. Mineralocorticoid: regulate levels of important electrolytes (mineral salts) in the body. (Aldosterone)-sodium, potassium, and hydrogen ion.
🗑
|
||||
| show | non-feedback related control. Direct control of hormone secretion (epinephrine and norepinephrine) by the nervous system when an animal feels threatened. This prepares the animal for intense physical activity.
🗑
|
||||
| Which four hormones have hyperglycemic effects in the body? What is the only hormone that acts to lower the blood glucose level? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | testosterone
🗑
|
||||
| show | FSH stimulates estrogen production. Estrogen is responsible for the physical and behavioral changes that prepare a female for breeding and pregnancy.
LH stimulates progestin production. Progesterone supports pregnancy. (steroid hormone)
🗑
|
||||
| How does relaxin help prepare a pregnant animal for parturition? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Because the kidneys produce erythropoietin which stimulates red bone marrow to increase production of oxygen-carrying red blood cells.
🗑
|
||||
| How do the actions of gastrin on the stomach differ from those of secretin and cholecystokinin? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Because they only travel a short distance from where they are produced (a variety of body tissues).
🗑
|
||||
| show | They are similar to hormonal testosterone and can cause undesirable side effects in the reproductive system, behaviorally, and other body systems. Because the effects are so interrelated.
🗑
|
||||
| Steroid Hormones are | show 🗑
|
||||
| Hypothalamus | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Thyroid (hydrophobic), and Catecholamine hormones -epinephrine & norepinephrine (hydrophilic)
🗑
|
||||
| show | ventral to the hypothalamus in a small pocket in the sphenoid bone of the skull called the pituitary fossa.
🗑
|
||||
| Gonadatropins | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Opposite hypothyroidism. Most common in cats. Nervousness, excitability, weight loss, increased appetite, tachycardia, vomiting, diarrhea, polyuria, polydipsia. Usually treated by removing the thyroid gland or long term thyroid inhibiting drug admin.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Secretin stimulates the pancreas to secrete fluid rich in sodium bicarbonate into the duodenum to neutralize the acidic chyme from the stomach. Cholecystokinin stimulates the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas into the duodenum.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Secretin and cholecystokinin inhibit gastric gland secretion and stomach motility and stimulate the gall bladder of the liver to contract sending bile into the small intestine to help in the digestion and absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins.
🗑
