Bio 201 Quiz 2

Atrial natriuretic peptide

Lowers blood pressure

Stimulates absorption of sodium by the kidneys to help to maintain water salt balance

Enlargement of the kidneys

Steroid hormones are produced by the adrenal cortex and the sex glands

Cholesterol

These hormones are proteins or related compounds also made of amino acids

Except those of the adrenal cortex in the sex glands

Keeps the level of particular parameters within a specific range

Chemical Messengers that has specific regulatory effects on certain cells or Oregon

Specific tissue acted on by each hormone

Ath, oxytocin and regulates the pituitary

Anterior lobe and posterior lobe

GH, TSH, ACTH, prolactin, FSH, LH

T3, T4

Pth and also helps with calcium metabolism

Medulla, cortex

Epinephrine

Glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids

Insulin, glucagon

Testosterone, estrogen, progesterone

Melatonin

Antidiuretic hormone

Promotes the reabsorption of water from the kidney tubules and thus decreases water excretion

Contraction of the smooth muscles in blood vessel walls and raises blood pressure

Diabetes insipidus

Causes uterine contraction and triggers milk ejection from the breast

Connects the brain's hypothalamus to the pituitary gland

RH releasing hormone

Protein manufacturer essential for girls

Fatty acid and glucose for energy and time of stress

Stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones

Stimulates hormone production in the cortex of the adrenal gland

Stimulates milk production in the breast

Stimulates the development of ovarian follicles in which egg cells mature and the development of sperm cells in the testes

Causes ovulation in females and promotes progesterone secretion in females and testosterone secretion in males

Gonadotropins

Hormones on the gonads to Regulates growth development and productive functions and both male and females

Gigantism

Acromegaly

Thyroxine

Triiodothyronine

Failure of the thyroid gland to form during fetal development

Lack of production from the thyroid gland

Hashimoto thyroiditis

Results from lack of iodine in the diet, limiting the thyroids ability to manufacture hormones

Overactivity of the thyroid gland with excessive hormone secretion. Graves disease

Exaggerated form of hypothyroidism with a sudden onset

Promotes calcium released from bone tissue, does increasing the amount of calcium circulating in the bloodstream. Also causes the kidneys to conserve calcium

Calcium balance is required not only for the health of bones and teeth but also for the proper function of the nervous system and muscles

Stimulation of smooth muscles in the walls of some arterioles, causing them to constrict and blood pressure to rise according to me. Andrew increase in the heart rate

Increase in the metabolic rate of body cells

Conversion of glycogen stored in the liver into glucose

Dilation of the bronchioles through relaxation of the smooth muscles in their walls

They maintain blood glucose levels in times of stress by stimulating the liver to convert amino acids into glucose instead of protein

Cortisol

Important in a regulation of electrolyte balance. Major hormone aldosterone

Male sex hormones.

Cushing syndrome

Hypersecretion of cortisol

Virilization

Appearance of male characteristics such as facial hair and premature balding

Aldosteronism

Abnormal salt and water retention causing high blood pressure

Secretes digestive enzymes through ducts directly into the small intestines

The cells produce hormones that diffuse into the bloodstream

Insulin produced by beta cells

Glycogen

Overall tissue building

Glucagon

Horse with insulin to regulate blood glucose level

Testosterone

Estrogen

Progesterone

Leptin a hormone that controls appetite

Erythropoietin stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow

Atrial response to raise blood pressure ANP helps lower blood pressure by increasing sodium excretion by the kidneys
