Students have asked these similar questions
Which hormone is controlled by both a releasing and an inhibiting hormone from the hypothalamus?
prolactin (PRL)
follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
oxytocin
Which statement best describes the relationship between the Endocrine and Nervous Systems?
Both systems work with the Urinary System to maintain acid-base balance in the blood
Both systems regulate hair growth, temperature regulation, and hydration
Both systems modulate the stress response, sleep/wake cycles, and metabolism
Both systems work with the Urinary System to activate Vitamin D
Explain the basis of the fact that nervous control is rapid but of short-duration, whereas hormonal control takes time to start but the effects last a long time. How would body function change if the rate of hormone degradation increased? Decreased?

- The nervous and endocrine systems work together to maintain homeostasis. These two systems differ in terms of method of communication, speed of communication, duration of response, target pathway, and actions of effectors.Select the FOUR statements below that describe the endocrine system. Sends hormones via the bloodstream Sends hormones via neural pathways or electrochemical transmission Fast-acting (milliseconds) Slow-acting (minutes/hours/days) Causes glands to secrete or muscles to contract Causes changes in metabolic activities Acts on specific glands or muscles Sends hormones to a broad range of target cellsarrow_forwardDuring the stress response, glucocorticoids and catecholamines work synergistically (together) to exert what effect? Question 2 options: to promote immune suppression to promote vasoconstriction to promote vigilance and arousal to promote hyperglycemiaarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about the relationship between the nervous and endocrine systems is NOT correct? Hypothalamus controls a part of the endocrine system called the pituitary gland. Hypothalamus produces ADH Neurons of the sympathetic nervous system stimulate the production of hormones from the adrenal gland. None of these. Which refers to the time during which a neuron can undergo an action potential? the resting membrane potential the depolarization period of the neuron polarization period of the neuron O the membrane potentialarrow_forward
- Which hormone is not correctly paired up with its function? O hGH: promotes skeletal and muscle growth TSH: stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroxine ACTH: stimulates the adrenal medulla to produce cortisol O All of the hormones are correctly paired up with its function.arrow_forwardIf a patient is hypoglycemic, which of the following physiological processes will occur in an attempt to correct this situation? ACTH will be released by the posterior pituitary gland to stimulate the adrenal gland, glucocorticoid will be released by the adrenal cortex and increase serum glucose levels, mineralcorticoids will be released by the adrenal cortex and potentiates catecholamine effects, Epinephrine will be secreted by the adrenal cortex in an attempt to increase blood serum glucose levelsarrow_forwardThe feedback pathway for the long-term stress hormone is shown below.Some Endocrine Structures and Hormones Posterior pituitary Anterior pituitary ADH ACTH Adrenal medulla Adrenal cortex Cortisol Epinephrine Select the number of the structure from the list above that corresponds to the gland or hormone in the long-term stress hormone release pathway. Answer Answer Answer Answer Gland 1 Hormone 1 Gland 2 Hormone 2arrow_forward

Produced by the hypothalamus AnswerADHoxytocinboth Stored in the posterior pituitary AnswerADHoxytocinboth Induces contractions in smooth muscle AnswerADHoxytocinboth Increased blood pressure with increased levels AnswerADHoxytocinboth Regulated by positive feedback AnswerADHoxytocinboth Regulated by negative feedback AnswerADHoxytocinboth Results in diabetes insipidus with low levels of secretion or response AnswerADHoxytocinboth Prevents successful breastfeeding with low levels AnswerADHoxytocinbotharrow_forwardWhich of the following terms refers to a hormone interaction that makes the target cell responsive to or more responsive to a second hormone? Group of answer choices Antagonistic Additive Permissive Synergismarrow_forwardThe hormone mechanism which results in the release of intracellular Ca++ is the: 2nd messenger – adenylate cyclase mechanism PIP 2nd messenger mechanism O humoral mechanism Steroid hormone mechanismarrow_forward
- When the parasympathetic nervous system is turned on, this does not automatically cause the release of a hormone. When the sympathetic nervous system is turned on, two forms of a hormone is automatically released. Name the endocrine organ that releases these two forms of a hormone and name the two forms of the hormone.arrow_forwardA group of college students is restricted to four hours of sleep per night for five days. After this time, the students are given a glucose tolerance test and are found to be pre-diabetic. Researchers hypothesize that the lack of sleep triggered the body to respond as if it were undergoing long-term stress. The hormone that is released in response to long-term stress and its effect on blood glucose levels are, respectively: Select one: a. Hormone Effect on Blood Glucose Levels Cortisol Raises blood glucose levels b. Hormone Effect on Blood Glucose Levels Cortisol Lowers blood glucose levels c. Hormone Effect on Blood Glucose Levels Adrenaline Lowers blood glucose levels d. Hormone Effect on Blood Glucose Levels Adrenaline Raises blood glucose levelsarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are false regarding the endocrine (hormones) in comparison to the paracrine system? (there may be more than one answer) Hormones are less stable than paracrine signals Hormones have a lower affinity for their receptors than paracrine signals Hormones are produced in a greater quantity than are paracrine signals Hormones are produced by most cell types; paracrine signals are only produced as a response to an insult (wound or infection). Hormones are produced from cells at a greater distance to their response elements than paracrine signaling.arrow_forward
