Title: PLEASE HELP ME Thanks Post by: Carolina Castillo2 on Sep 28, 2022 Select the structure that matches the function(s).
POSSIBLE ANSWERS: POSTERIOR PITUITARY / ANTERIOR PITITUARY / HYPOTHALAMUS 1. Produces ADH and oxytocin Answer 2. Synthesizes and releases FSH, LH, and Prolactin Answer 3. Releases a hormone that tells the adrenal cortex to release cortisol Answer 4. Releases hormones produced in the hypothalamus Answer 5. Releases the hormone required for growth of bones Answer 6. Is connected to hypothalamus via blood vessels Answer 7. Is connected to hypothalamus via neuro-secretory cells Answer 8. Releases TRH to stimulate the release of TSH to activate thyroxine production Answer 9. Produces and secretes hormones that stimulate or inhibit the pituitary gland Answer 10. Stores ADH and oxytocin Functions of Various Hormones Increases calcium levels in the blood Lowers calcium levels in the blood Stimulates contraction of the smooth muscles of the uterus and breasts Increases metabolic rate and regulates growth and development Lowers blood sugar levels by stimulating uptake of glucose by cells and conversion of glucose to glycogen in liver and muscles Increases blood sugar levels by stimulating the conversion of glycogen to glucose Record the number that matches the function of each hormone. Function: Answer Answer Answer Answer Hormone: Calcitonin Thyroxine Parathyroid Hormone Glucagon This gland is the link between the nervous and endocrine systems. a. hypothalamus b. thalamus c. pituitary d. thyroid Title: Re: PLEASE HELP ME Thanks Post by: habiba on Sep 28, 2022 Functions of Various Hormones Increases calcium levels in the blood Lowers calcium levels in the blood Stimulates contraction of the smooth muscles of the uterus and breasts Increases metabolic rate and regulates growth and development Lowers blood sugar levels by stimulating uptake of glucose by cells and conversion of glucose to glycogen in liver and muscles Increases blood sugar levels by stimulating the conversion of glycogen to glucose Calcitonin: Lowers calcium levels in the blood Thyroxine: Increases metabolic rate and regulates growth and development Parathyroid Hormone: Increases calcium levels in the blood Glucagon: Increases blood sugar levels by stimulating the conversion of glycogen to glucose. It promote glycogenolysis (unlike insulin), which breakdown of glycogen. Thus raises concentration of glucose in the blood. Cortisol: Raises blood glucose level in response to long-term stress Aldosterone: Promotes the reabsorption of sodium by the kidneys to increase water reabsorption. Epinephrine: Triggers fight-or-flight response for short-term stress. Antidiuretic hormone: increases water reabsorption in the kidney tubules. Antidiuretic hormone and aldosterone both help to increase water in blood thus increasing blood pressure. But in contrast to ADH (direct reabsorption of water through osmoregulation), aldosterone cases take up salt and in turn cases water reabsorption. This gland is the link between the nervous and endocrine systems. a.hypothalamus b.thalamus c.pituitary d.thyroid Does that help?
