Q

oxytocin

A

stimulates labor contractions

38
Q

membrane bound binding sites

A

outside the cell and are for all non-lipid hormones

39
Q

What do glucocorticoids do?

A

natural steroids from kidney cortex

40
Q

T3-T4

A

control metabolism

41
Q

WHere do sympathetic preganglionic neurons exit the CNS

A

T1-L2

42
Q

3 functions of chaperone proteins

A

hide lipids so they don’t clump together

keep a constant supply of hormones in the blood

make tiny hormones (like T3-T4) larger so they aren’t filtered out by the kidneys

43
Q

adrenergic

A

uses adrenaline as it’s neurotransmitter

44
Q

describe the Renin/Angiotensin Pathway (what is this in response to and what is the end hormone)

A

kidneys recognize low blood pressure/volume and release renin, this converts angiotensinogen into angiotensin I & II, finally aldosterone is released

45
Q

what motor neuron is adrenergic?

A

sympathetic postganglionic motor neuron

46
Q

anterior pituitary releases what hormones

A

TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH, GH, PRL, endorphins

47
Q

Where are parasympathetic neuron cell bodies found?

A

terminal axons

48
Q

What are the 6 topic hormones?

A 
LH
prolactin
melanocyte stimulating hormone
TSH
ACTH GH
49
Q

endocrine

A

secretes directly into the blood

50
Q

what two eye parts correct refraction?

A

cornea 60% and lens 40%

51
Q

Where do parasympathetic preganglionic neurons exit the CNS

A

brain stem and S2-S4

52
Q

What do endorphins do?

A

flight or flight response

53
Q

rods

A

detect crude images, low light, no color vision

54
Q

olfactory sense uses what?

A

chemoreceptors

55
Q

autocrine

A

hormone secreted locally and acts on the cells that secreted them

56
Q

who is the one adrenic autonomic nervous system motor neuron?

A

sympathetic postganglionic motor neuron

57
Q

intracellular bind sites

A

inside the cell, for lipids and lipid hormones

58
Q

macula lutea

A

area of eye with best visual acuit

59
Q

calcitonin

A

lowers blood calcium levels

60
Q

How is the release of oxytocin controlled?

A

hypothalamus neurons

61
Q

What does the hypothalamus do?

A

makes oxytocin, ADH & releasing (tropic) hormones, sends releasing hormones to glands

62
Q

aldosterone

A

increases blood pressure and volume

63
Q

What organ is both exocrine and endocrine?

A

pancreas

64
Q

What is glaucoma?

A

increase in pressure inside the eye (buildup of aqueous humor)

65
Q

What kind of neurons are the special senses?

A

bipolar sensory neurosn

66
Q

glucagon (and what cell makes this)

A

raises blood glucose and is made by alpha cells

67
Q

What are cribriform plates?

A

tiny holes in the ethmoid bone

68
Q

What raises blood calcium levels?

A

PTH

69
Q

hormone that might cause excessive urination

A

low ADH, insulin

70
Q

function of ossicles

A

help conduct sound waves to the inner ear

71
Q

function of semilunar canals

A

have neurons that detect when head is in motion (dynamic equalibrium)

72
Q

exocrine

A

have ducts, release onto skin or in the GI tract

73
Q

posterior pituitary releases what hormones

A

oxytocin, ADH

74
Q

What type of cell makes T4?

A

follicular cells in the thyroid

75
Q

What does T4 do?

A

controls metabolism

76
Q

What is refraction?

A

bending light rays

77
Q

cretinism

A

low T3-T4 levels in infants

78
Q

What connects the pituitary and the hypothalamus?

A

infundibulum

79
Q

melanocyte stimulating hormone

A

makes melanin

80
Q

How is the release of glucocorticoids controlled?

A

ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone)

81
Q

What does the parasympathetic nervous system do?

A

slows things down

82
Q

giantism

A

excess GH pre-puberty

83
Q

LH

A

releasing hormone for ovaries and testes

84
Q

Where are glucocorticoids stored?

A

kidney cortex

85
Q

ADH

A

decreases urinary output, lack of this is diabetes insipidus

86
Q

where is oxytocin stored?

A

posterior pituitary

87
Q

Where are sympathetic postganglionic neuron cell bodies found?

A

Sympathetic chain ganglion

88
Q

Where are the parasympathetic postganglionic neuron cell bodies found?

A

Terminal axons

89
Q

Where do sympathetic preganglionic neurons exist the CNS?

A

T1-L2

90
Q

Where do parasympathetic preganglionic neurons exit the CNS?

A

Brain stem and S2-S4
