Q

Control on hormone secretion

A

Endocrine glands release hormones directly into the blood which Carrie’s the hormone to a tissue to exert effect.

Rate at which a hormone is secreted from an endocrine gland is dependent on the magnitude of the input.

Q

When is the hormonal half life increased?

A

During exercise blood flow to kidneys and liver decrease causing a hormonal half life to increase results in elevation of plasma level

18
Q

Thyroid Gland Produces…..

A

Thyroxine to counteract the reduction of free thryroxine.

Also secretes calcitonin

19
Q

Thyroid Hormones

A

Establish overall metabolic rate

20
Q

Innate immune system

A

Born with an adaptive immune system

21
Q

First line of defense

A

Skin a mucosa

Skin is 2
Mucosa is 400

22
Q

Leukocytes

A

Remove and recognize foreign invaders

23
Q

Neutrophils

A

Site produced: Bone Marrow
Innate
Functions: phagocytosis and release chemicals
45-75%

24
Q

Basophils

A

Bone marrow
Innate
Release chemicals for inflammation
0-2%

25
Q

Eosinophils

A

Bone marrow
Innate
Destroy multicellular parasites
0-6%

26
Q

Monocytes

A

Bone marrow
Innate
Involved in innate immunity
2-12%

27
Q

Acquired immune cells

A

B and T Cells (killer T cells helper T cells regulatory T cells)
help the immune system

28
Q

VO2MAX

A

Amount of oxygen your body uses while exercising hard

29
Q

VO2MAX components

A

Lung capacity and heart volume

30
Q

Exercise provided homeostatic regulation of…

A

Blood glucose, body temperature, blood pressure, and blood volume

31
Q

Amino acid derivatives

A

Bind to receptors on surface of target cell
Most are not lipid soluble

32
Q

Peptides

A

Chains of amino acids that can function as neurotransmitters or hormones

33
Q

Why is chemical structure important to hormonal function

A

It dictates the way in which the hormone is transported in the blood and the manner in which it exerts its effects on the tissue

34
Q

Growth hormone increases during…

A

Exercise in order to mobilize fatty acids from adipose tissue and to aid in the maintenance of blood glucose

35
Q

Therapeutic doses of growth hormone increase…

A

Fat oxidation, Vo2Max, strength, and improve body composition

36
Q

Second line of innate immunity

A

Phagocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, dendritic cells, and macrophages)
Inflammation
Fever
Antimicrobial substances

37
Q

Where are most killer cells found

A

Blood, liver, spleen

38
Q

Compliment system

A

Proteins in the blood that help antibodies kill their target

39
Q

How does the compliment system destroy invaders

A

By generating holes in the surface of the invading bacterium through insertion of pore forming proteins in the cell membrane

40
Q

How does the compliment system enhance function of other cells

A

By tagging invading agents for destruction

41
Q

Cells involves with acquired immunity

A

B-cells and T-cells

42
Q

High intensity exercise can cause an increase in…

A

Blood levels of natural killer cells, neutrophils, and antibodies. Within three hours, the immune system returns to its pre-exercise level
