18
Q

hormones in the posterior pituitary

A

antidiuretic hormone (ADH, vasopressin,) oxytocin (OT)

19
Q

causes the kidneys to conserve water and reduce amount of water in urine

A

antidiuretic hormone

20
Q

plays role in childbirth by contacting muscles in the uterine wall and in mile letdown by forcing milk into ducts, controlled by positive feedback

21
Q

located below the laryx, two lobes

A

thyroid gland

22
Q

what are the hormones in the thyroid gland

A

Thyroxine (T4 or tetraiodothyronine) and triiodothyronine (T3)

23
Q

regulate metabolism of carbs, lipids and proteins, increases the rate at which cells release energy from crabs, enhance protein synthesis and stimulate breakdown and mobilization of lipids

24
Q

lowers blood levels of calcium and phosphate ions when they are too high, increases calcium deposition in bones by inhibiting osteoclasts and stimulating osteoblast

25
increases blood calcium ion concentration and decreases phosphate ion concentration, stimulates bone resportion by osteoclasts, which releases calcium into blood
Parathyroid hormones
26
controlled by negative feedback and 2 antagonistic horomes
calcium homeostasis
27
what increases blood calcium when it is too low?
PTH
28
what decreases blood calcium when it is to high?
calcitonin
29
sit atop of the kidneys
adrenal glands
30
this is the inner part, secretes epinephrine and norepinephrine into bloodstream, effects resemble flight or fight effects of sympathetic nervous system,
adrenal medulla
31
outer layer, of adrenal gland
adrenal cortex
32
helps regulate mineral/electrolyte balance, causes the kidneys to conserve sodium ions and thus water to excrete potassium ions
aldosterone
33
aldosterone is screted in response to () blood volume and pressure
decreases
34
regulates glucose metabolism and promotes use of fatty acids for energy over glucose and promise live to generate new glucose
cortisol
35
these hormones control level of blood glucose
pancreatic hormones
36
secrets hormones as an endocrine gland and digestive juice into tract as exocrine glands
pancreas
37
two hormones of pancrease
glucagon and insulin
38
releases from alpha cells of pancreatic islets, increases the blood level of glucose by stimulating breakdown of glycogen into glucose by the liver, low blood glucose level simulcasts this secretion
glucagon
39
decreases the blood level of glucose by stimulating the liver to form glycogen, promotes facilitate diffusion of glucose into cells, stimulates adipose cells to store fat, controlled by negative feedback, high blood glucose stimulates the release
insulin
40
a metabolic disease due to lack of insulin or inability of cells to recognize insulin
diabetes mellitus
41
What is type 1 diabetes
lack of insulin
42
what is type 2 diabetes
Not enough insulin, life style, overweight
43
located near the upper portion of the thalamus in the brain, secretes melatonin
pineal gland
44
lies between the lungs behind the sternum, largest in children, secretes thymosin
thymus gland
