Hormones

Question 1

steroid hormones

Answer 1

• nuclear or cytoplasmic receptors
• Binds to DNA
• TF
• cause production of new proteins

Question 2

examples of steroid hormones

Answer 2

thyroid hormones, cortisol, testosterone, oestrogen/ progesterone

Question 3

Peptide hormones

Answer 3

cause effect from outside the cell

Question 4

example of peptide JAK/STAT

Answer 4

GH prolactin

Question 5

example of peptide Gq

Answer 5

oxytocin, ADH

Question 6

example of peptide Gs

Answer 6

TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH and ADH

Question 7

Hypothalamus produces

Answer 7

Somatostatin, dopamine and GnRH

Question 8

somatostatin

Answer 8

inhibits secretion of GH, including TSH and insulin

Question 9

dopamine

Answer 9

brain NT which controls movement and involved in regard pathway

Question 10

GnRH

Answer 10

stimulates release of FSH and LH

Question 11

A. pituitary

Answer 11

TSH, FSH, LH, GH and prolactin

Question 12

TSH

Answer 12

stimulates thyroid to release T3 and T4

Question 13

FSH

Answer 13

maturation of follicles

Question 14

LH

Answer 14

ovulation and development of CL

Question 15

GH

Answer 15

stimulates forth, cell generation

Question 16

Prolactinn

Answer 16

milk production

Question 17

thyroid produces

Answer 17

T3, T3, cacitronin

Question 18

calcitronin

Answer 18

controls calcium nd phosphate conc in the blood

-keeps bones strong and helathy

Question 19

when the hypothalamus senses T3/T4 si low it releases

Answer 19

TRH which causes the a.pituitary to release TSH

Question 20

t3

Answer 20

regulation of metbaolism- shorter half life and higher metabolic tate
- much lower cones than T4

Question 21

t4

Answer 21

higher cones, less active

Question 22

deficiency in iodine leads to

Answer 22

decrease in production of T3/T4

Question 23

p.pituitary

Answer 23

oxytocin, ADH

Question 24

oxytocin

Answer 24

NT in the brain.

plays role in social bonding and sexual reproduction

Question 25

ADH

Answer 25

vasopressin - increases aquaporins in the principle cells of kidney - increasing reabsorption of water - increase BP - decrease diuriesis

Question 26

pancreas

Answer 26

insulin, glucagon

Question 27

insulin

Answer 27

B-cell, when glut2 detects decrease in blood glucose - increases glucose absorption in muscle, adipose and liver cells - reducing blood glucose

Question 28

insulin causes and increase in

Answer 28

lipogenesis and glycogenesis

Question 29

glucagon

Answer 29

alpha cells - secreted when blood glucose is low - cause glycolysis and lipolysis to produce glucose and increase blood glucose - glucoseneogenesis

Question 30

adrenal medulla

Answer 30

- adrenaline | - noradrenaline

Question 31

adrenaline/noradrenaline

Answer 31

adrenocortical hormones | - fight or flight response

Question 32

kidney

Answer 32

renin

Question 33

renin

Answer 33

response to low BP detected by juxtaglomerular apparatus detecting decrease in BP, decrease in Na+ - overal causes RAS= increase in aldosterone = increase in water retention

Question 34

adrenal cortex

Answer 34

cortisol aldosterone adrenal androgens

Question 35

cortisol

Answer 35

released in response to stress and low blood glucose | - increase blood glucose by glucoseneogenesis and metabolism of fat, protein and carbohydrate

Question 36

aldosteorne

Answer 36

increases BP in response to angiotensin 2

Question 37

adrenal androgens

Answer 37

steroid hormones that regulate and develop sexual characteristic e.g. testosterone and secondary characteristics

Question 38

Testes

Answer 38

testosterone

Question 39

testosterone

Answer 39

- primary able sex hormone - secondary sexual characteristics - sperm production

Question 40

ovaries/cl

Answer 40

oestrogen and progesterone

Question 41

oestrogen

Answer 41

primary female sex hormone - stops FSH form being produced so not too many follicles are stimulated - LH= ovulation

Question 42

progesterone

Answer 42

thickens lining of the uterus- implantation | -negative feedback to lh and fsh

Question 43

placenta

Answer 43

HCG, progesterone, HPL

Question 44

HCG

Answer 44

stimulates CL to continue to produces progesterone

Question 45

progesteorne

Answer 45

thickens lining of uterus

Question 46

HPL

Answer 46

human placental lactogen - a polypeptide placental hormone - structure and function is similar to human growth hormone
