Question 2

catecholamines

Answer 2

stress hormones like adrenaline

Question 3

Stress situations associated with…

Answer 3

Increased adrenalin and noradrenalin levels, increased heart rte and blood pressure, release of glucose and FFA’s

Question 4

fight/flight

Answer 4

released glucose and FFA’s are utilized by the active muscle

Question 5

no fight/flight

Answer 5

chronic increase in blood pressure, storage of fat in endothelium (artheresclerosis)

Question 6

autocrine communication

Answer 6

product is release by a cell and it activates receptors on the same cell (and shuts of production)

Question 7

paracrine communication

Answer 7

signals are secreted by one cel and diffuse to adjacent cells

Question 8

endocrine communication

Answer 8

cells that release their products into the blood stream, and the blood stream transports it to the right receptor (hormones)

Question 9

neurotransmission

Answer 9

fats communication done by a neuron

Question 10

neuroendocrine

Answer 10

neurons that release signal/products into the blood stream (neurohormones)

Question 11

paracrine CCK

Answer 11

release of digestive enzymes

Question 12

endocrine CCK

Answer 12

release of insulin by pancreatic B-cell

Question 13

neural CCK

Answer 13

stimulation of afferent neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system which leads to satiation

Question 14

pheromones

Answer 14

chemicals that animals and humans use to communicate
