| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which of the following is NOT a major endocrine organ but produces hormones in addition to its major excretory function? | Kidney |
| Select the correct statement describing the differences between hormonal and neural controls of body functioning. | Hormonal responses last longer than responses to nervous impulses. |
| The metabolic rate of most body tissues is controlled directly by | TH |
| The stimulus for secreting parathyroid hormone is a good example of a | Humoral Stimulus |
| The stimulus for producing insulin is | high blood glucose |
| Which of the following elements is required for the synthesis of thyroid hormone? | iodine |
| The hypophyseal portal system transports releasing and inhibiting hormones from the hypothalamus to the | Anterior Pituitary |
| Which of the following describes a hormone that CANNOT exhibit its full effect without the presence of another hormone? | Permissiveness |
| Which of the following is NOT synthesized in the pituitary gland? | ADH |
| Which hormone is NOT being synthesized if a goiter forms? | TH |
| Polydipsia is excessive __________ associated with diabetes mellitus. | Thirst |
| Which of the following is true about water-soluble hormones? | They have a short half life |
| Excess growth hormone would cause all the following EXCEPT | Suppression of Cancer |
| Insulin enhances the membrane transport of glucose in all of the following tissues EXCEPT | Brain |
| Atrial natriuretic peptide is a hormone that is secreted by the __________ and targets the kidneys and adrenal cortex. | heart |
| Any given hormone will influence the activity of | its target cells |
| Down-regulation involves the loss of receptors and prevents the target cells from overreacting to persistently high hormone levels. | TRUE |
| When one hormone opposes the action of another hormone, the interaction is called | Antagonism |
| Which of the following occurs within a negative feedback system? | Target organ effects inhibit further hormone release. |
| The anterior pituitary is known as the “master endocrine gland” because it controls the hypothalamus. | FALSE |
| Which of the following stimulate(s) most body cells to increase in size and divide? | GH |
| Which of the following hormones stimulates gamete (sperm or egg) production? | FSH |
| As blood levels of __________ rise, the expulsive contractions of labor gain momentum and finally end in birth. | OXYTOCIN |
| Which of the following is NOT one of the areas in which thyroid hormone (TH) plays an important role? | helping the body avoid dehydration and water overload |
