1
New cards

All of the following are true about short term excersiee except

The body becomes more dependent on fats and proteins as energy sources

2
New cards

The exhaustion stage of the general adaption syndrome (stress response) sets in only if protein reserves = false or true

False

3
New cards

Growth hormone does all of the following except

Increases protein breakdown

4
New cards

as an example of hormonal, communication, when Osmo receptors of the _____, detect, dehydration, a signal to the posterior pituitary gland, causes the release of _____

Hypothalamus, antidiuretic hormone

5
New cards

Which of the following occurs when a hormone binds to a nuclear receptor

Activation of mRNA synthesis

6
New cards

When a few intercellular mediator, molecules activate several enzymes, and each of these activated enzymes activate still other enzymes, the hormone has initiated what effect

A cascade effect

7
New cards

Steroid hormones do what?

Bind to the receptors in the nucleus of their target cells

8
New cards

Why is it that steroid hormones use receptors inside of target cells were protein peptide and amino acid hormones do not

Lipids can cross the cell membrane because they are lipids and the membrane is lipid.

9
New cards

Which pattern of hormone secretion exemplified by thyroid hormones remains relatively constant over long periods of time

Chronic hormone secretion

10
New cards

Negative feedback inhibition occurs when _____

Thyroid hormone targets the anterior pituitary

11
New cards

John Smith works outdoors in the winter at a ski resort. His thyroid hormone levels are.

Higher in the winter to increase body temperature

12
New cards

The beta cells of pancreatic islets produce

Insulin

13
New cards

The ____ secretes ____ which promotes N.A.+ and water retention

Adrenal cortex, aldosterone

14
New cards

During exercise, the energy necessary to sustain skeletal muscle cell contraction comes from

Increase epinephrine and glucagon

15
New cards

Which hormone stimulates glucocorticoid secretion

ACTH

16
New cards

GROWTH HORMONE

Increases amino acid uptake in cells

17
New cards

Removal of the anterior pituitary would affect the functioning of the

Thyroid gland

18
New cards

Target organs most often regulate the pituitary gland via

Negative feedback inhibition

19
New cards

Which of the following statements regarding hormone transport and distribution is false?

23
New cards

The actions of cortisol and glucagon on glucose metabolism

Synergistic

24
New cards

Two hormones that have additive effects on a cell or tissue

New cards

The actions of Calcitrol and parathyroid hormone on calcium metabolism

Integrative

27
New cards

Two hormones that have opposing effects on a cell or tissue

Antagonistic

28
New cards

If a patient is administered a powerful glucocorticoid such as prednisone to suppress the immune system, what unintended effects might have on blood chemistry

Increase of blood glucose

29
New cards

A chemical signal is released into the bloodstream and binds to receptor on distant cells

Endocrine

30
New cards

A chemical signals released from cell and binds to receptor on neighbor cell

Paracrine

31
New cards

A chemical signal inside one cell diffusers through special pores into the neighboring cell
