The endocrine system with lots of info 2

QuestionAnswer
stimulate certain bone cells (Osteoclasts) to remove calcium from the bones and raise the serum calcium levels. It also directs the kidneys to put out more phosphate into the urine. Parathyroids (4) (parathyroid hormone, PTH)
causes broken bones and kidney stones. Hyperparathyroidism
site for maturation of T-lymphocytes (type of white blood cell used for immunity) Thymus (thymic hormones)-
glucocorticoids from the zona fasciculata, raises blood sugar,stimulates glycogenolysis in liver,suppresses uptake of glucose ,induces adipose cells to degrade fats,induces skeletal muscles to degrade protein, Adrenals-cortex
Excess glucocorticoids (corticosteroids) CUSHING’S DISEASE.
Insufficient glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid production causes ADDISON’S DISEASE
which is used to stimulate the bone marrow to make RBC erythropoietin (EPO)
(formed in the kidneys by the action of Renin on angiotensinogen that is produced by the liver) which is converted to Angiotensin II in the lungs. Angiotensin I
This hormone will go to the adrenal cortex to stimulate more release of Aldosterone. This hormone causes sodium retention, thus raising blood pressure,ncrease in thirst and an increase in ADH production Angiotensin II
that stimulates the gall bladder to release bile cholecystokinin
converts trypsinogen to trypsin (used for protein digestion) and activates pancreatic digestive enzymes. Enterokinase (enteropeptidase
first human hormone identified) modulates water and electrolyte transport in pancreatic duct cells, liver cholangiocytes, and epididymis epithelial cells. Secretin
stimulates cell growth and proliferation and inhibits apoptosis (programmed cell death Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)
(precursor to Angiotensin I secreted by the kidneys) Angiotensinogen
stimulates blood stem cells to differentiate into platelet precursor cells (megakaryocytes Thrombopoietin
blocks the release of iron from intracellular stores to help maintain iron homeostasis and protect against invasion by pathogenic bacteria. Hepcidin
relaxin by the ovaries and testosterone by the testes TBD-estrogen, progesterone, inhibin
used by the heart when blood pressure rises to stimulate the kidneys to remove more sodium from the blood. Where sodium goes, so goes water Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP
erythropoietin (EPO) ,Angiotensin I kidneys
Angiotensin I to Angiotensin II, ACE,Aldosterone lungs
cholecystokinin ,. Enterokinase (enteropeptidase) , trypsinogen to trypsin , Secretin Duodenum
Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-,Angiotensinogen , Thrombopoietin, Hepcidin Liver
TBD-estrogen, progesterone, inhibin, testosterone Ovaries and testes

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
