Q

glucagon

A

pancreas
liver/body cells
alpha cells in pancreas detect low blood glucose concentration
cells decrease glucose uptake, liver converts glycogen to glucose

Q

insulin

A
pancreas
liver/body cells
beta cells of the islets of langerhand detect high blood glucose  concentration 
liver converts glucose to glycogen
and cells increase uptake of glucose

Q

high glucose concentration in blood

A

pancreas detects then beta cells of the islets of langerhan in pancreas secrete insulin which effects liver and makes it convert glucose to glycogen and causes body cells to increase uptake of glucose. this negates problem

Q

low blood pressure

A

means low blood volume and therefore means a low amount of water in the blood. the osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus detect and send impulses to the post pit which secretes ADH and this causes the collecting duct of the nephron to reabsorb water and excrete k ions. this negates problem

Q

high bloop pressure

A

osmoreceptors in hypothalamus detect and inhibits the release of ADH from the post pit. the collecting duct does not reabsorb water it is excreted

Q

uterine stretching

A

receptors send impulses to posterior pituitary which releases oxytocin, this causes smooth muscle contraction of the uterine to promote the stimulus

Q

low sodium concentration in blood

A

kidney detects and secretes enzyme renin, renin then converts angiotensin 1 to angiotensin 2 and angiotensin 2 stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone. aldosterone causes the collecting duct of the nephron to reabsorb na ions and secret k
angiotensin is a plasmaprotein in blood

NEGATE

17
Q

high sodium concentration in blood

A

kidney detects and stops secreting renin, angiotensin 1 is not converted into angiotensin 2, so aldosterone not secreted from the adrenal cortex and the collecting duct does not reabsorb Na+ NEGATE BISH

18
Q

low levels of thyroxine

A

chemoreceptors in hypothalamus detect and release TSHRF which causes the ant pit to release TSH which causes the thyroid gland to release thyroxine. THIS NEGATES THE MOTHER FUCKING PROBLEMMMM

19
Q

tropic hormones

A

cause another gland to release their hormone

20
Q

low concentration of glucose in blood

A

pancreas detects and alpha cells in pancreas release glucagon, cells decrease uptake in glucose and the liver converts glycogen into glucose

21
Q

stress

A

sumpatheic nervous system sends impulses to the adrenal medulla which secretes adrenalin or epinephrine and this causes the fight or flight reaction increase heart rate blood pressure blood volume and decrease in digestion

22
Q

prolactin in other organisms

A

fish- osmoregulation and it prevents the loss of ions and uptake of water
birds- fat regulation and reproduction
amphibians- delays metamorphosis
