Chapter 7 - Endocrine Systems

Question 0

half life of hormones are the blank of the response

Answer 0

duration

Question 1

hormones are active at blank concentrations

Answer 1

low

Question 2

hormones are blank because the cell blank the signal

Answer 2

magnified, amplifies

Question 3

chain of amino acids and these are usually blank

Answer 3

peptides, polar

Question 4

made from cholesterol and are usually blank

Answer 4

steroids, non polar

Question 5

this category of hormones can be polar which come from blank or non polar which come from blank

Answer 5

adrenal medulla, thyroid

Question 6

most of these category of hormones are non polar and paracrine signals like prostaglandins

Answer 6

eicosanoids

Question 7

cells making steroid hormones should have a lot of blank

Answer 7

mitochondria, smooth ER

Question 8

steroids are blank so they can enter target cell

Answer 8

lipophilic/hydrophobic

Question 9

steroids are blank acting but have a blank half life

Answer 9

slower, longer

Question 10

steroids can be used to bind in nucleus and create new blank for blank

Answer 10

proteins, gene expression

Question 11

steroid hormone effects last blank than peptide hormones

Answer 11

longer

Question 12

amines that are smaller and polar

Answer 12

catecholamines

Question 13

example of amine that acts like a lipid

Answer 13

thyroxine

Question 14

example of amines that act like a peptide

Answer 14

norepinephrine and epinephrine

Question 15

insulin release is an example of blank because there is more than one pathway to get the same response

Answer 15

redundancy

Question 16

body anticipates you eating so blank is released in order to stay as close as possible to the blank set point

Answer 16

insulin, homeostasis

Question 17

neurohormones don’t really include blank and blank because they are blank tissue

Answer 17

anterior pituitary, adrenal medulla, epithelial

Question 18

anything coming from the blank is faster than anything released from the blank

Answer 18

posterior pituitary, anterior pituitary

Question 19

two posterior pituitary hormones

Answer 19

ADH, Oxytocin

Question 20

this means that a signal is going to be taken to another organ to release a different hormone

Answer 20

trophic

Question 21

single anterior pituitary hormone that works systemically without causing release of something else

Answer 21

prolactin

Question 22

combined effects of hormones and it is greater than additive

Answer 22

synergism

Question 23

example of synergism

Answer 23

glucagon & cortisol/epinephrine

Question 24

hormone interaction where you need second hormone to get full effect of first

Answer 24

permissiveness

Question 25

example of permissiveness

Answer 25

GnRH & thyroid hormone in puberty

Question 26

hormone interaction where action of first hormone opposed by a second

Answer 26

antagonism

Question 27

example of antagonistic hormones

Answer 27

GHRH & somatostatin

Question 28

increasing calcium ions will increase blank

Answer 28

exocytosis
