Question 3

Epinephrine Location

Answer 3

Adrenal Medulla

Question 4

Epinephrine

Answer 4

“Adrenaline”, Released during exercise, increases HR and BP, Glyogenolysis, Lipolysis, Gluconeogenesis, Dilates bronchioles/blood vessels

Question 5

GH location

Answer 5

Anterior Pituitary Gland

Question 6

Growth Hormone

Answer 6

stimulates protein synthesis and long bone growth, increased during exercise, helps maintain blood glucose

Question 7

GH at rest

Answer 7

stimulates uptake of AA and protein synthesis

Question 8

Cortisol Location

Answer 8

Adrenal Cortex

Question 9

Cortisol

Answer 9

prevents plasma glucose from dropping, blocks glucose from entering wrong tissues, promotes protein breakdown for gluconeogenesis

Question 10

Glucagon location

Answer 10

Pancreas

Question 11

Glucagon

Answer 11

helps maintain glucose levels during exercise, promotes mobilization of fatty acids and glucose

Question 12

Insulin

Answer 12

promotes glucose absorption in cells

Question 13

Insulin inhibition

Answer 13

inhibited by sympathetic system during exercise

Question 14

Answer 15

adrenal glands

Question 16

ADH

Answer 16

decreases water loss from body to maintain hydration

Question 17
