Endocrine/Sense Quiz
Bio 3 Last Quiz
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Give 1 difference between the endocrine and nervous system | The nervous system uses electrical impulses while the endocrine system uses hormones as chemical signals |
| Give 1 difference between the endocrine and nervous system | The nervous system is responsible for voluntary and involuntary movement while the endocrine system is only responsible for involuntary movement. |
| Give 1 difference between the endocrine and nervous system | In the nervous system, the transmission of the signal is fast, whereas it is slow in the endocrine system. |
| Give 1 difference between the endocrine and nervous system | In the nervous system, nerve impulses transmit through neurons, whereas, in the endocrine system, hormones move through the bloodstream. |
| On the diagram of page 3, identify the different glands | a) Hypothalamus b) Pituitary gland c) Thyroid gland d) Parathyroid gland e) Thymus f) Adrenal glands g) Pancreas h) Obary (female) I) Testis (male) J) Pineal gland |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for the kidneys | 1) Vitamin D and erythropoietin 2) Bone marrow 3) Vit. D: Renal absorption of calcium 3)Ery..: Increases production of red blood cells |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for stomach/gastric glands | 1) Gastrin 2) Stomach 3) Digestion, stimulates gastric motility and releases gastric acid |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for small intestines | 1) Secretin & cholecystokinin 2) Pancreas for secretin & liver for chol. 3) S: Stimulates secretion of bicarbonate which neutralizes acidity of stomach fluid in intestines 3) C: Improves digestion & stimulates production of bile |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for adipose tissue | 1)Leptin 2) Brain 3) Regulation of food intake |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for hypothalamus | 1)ADH & oxytocyn 2)Kidneys for ADH & breast/uterus for oxy. 3) ADH: reabsoprtion of water in kidneys 3) Oxy: Positive feedback of contractions |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for posterior pituitary | |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for anterior pituitary gland | 1) TSH: Thyroid: Stimulates thyroid to release thyroid horm. 2)GH: Long bones: Stimulates growth/cellular division 3)ACTH: Adrenal cortex: Controls production of cortisol/aldosterone 4)Prolactin: Mammary glands: production breast milk 5)LH/FSH: gonads |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for parathyroid gland | PTH: Bone, kidneys, intestines: Controls plasma calcium and phosphate |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for pineal gland | Melatonin: Blood/Cerebrospinal fluid: Helps with timing of internal clock and sleep |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for thyroid gland | T3,T4 and calcitonin: Most tissues, bones: Growth and development |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for thymus | Thymosin: Lymphocytes: immune response |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for adrenal gland (adrenal cortex) | Cortisol, aldosterone: Heart, lungs, muscles and blood vessels: CHECK |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for adrenal medulla | Epinephrine, norepinephrine: Hearth, lungs, muscles and blood vessels: fight or flight response |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for pancreas | 1) Insulin: Liver, skeletal muscles and adipose tissue: Allows glucose to enter the body’s cell to provide energy, decreases blood sugar level 2) Glucagon: Liver, bloodstream: Increases blood sugar level |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for Testis (male) | Testosterone: sex organ: Regulate sex drive, muscle mass |
| Give the 1) major hormones the gland produce, 2) the function of the hormone and 3) the hormone's target organ/tissue for ovary (female) | Progesterone and estrogen: ovaries: Regulate menstrual cycle and reproductive development. |
| What is the function of LH/FSH? | Stimulates follicle growth and ovulation. In male, stimulates spermatogenesis and testosterone production |
| Are gustatory receptors and olfactory receptors chemoreceptors or mechanoreceptors? | Chemoreceptors |
| Why is the production of saliva important for the sense of taste? | Chemicals from food dissolve in saliva and then contact the taste cells through the taste pores allowing the sense of taste |
| What are the five taste perceptions? | Sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami (amino acids) |
| What is the link between increased use of salt in old age and an old person’s sense of smell? | As people get older, their sense of smell and taste starts to fade away. As smell is needed to detect flavours, they start having a harder time tasting food and start adding more salt to keep tasting the flavours as clearly as before. |
| The sensations of touch, pressure, vibration, temperature, body position, limb position and pain are: somatic or special? | somatic |
| Which type of skin receptor detects deep pressure? Meissner Corpuscles of Touch, Lamellar corpuscule, Free nerve endings, Hair root plexuses or Muscle spindle | Lamellar corpuscule |
| Identify the parts of the ear | |
| Identify the parts of the eye | |
| Explain what is Astigmatism | It’s an imperfection is the curvature of a person’s eye. It causes blurred vision near and at a distance. |
| Why do older people hold books far away from their eyes in order to read, or use reading glasses? | It’s due to presbyopia, which decreases the elasticity and increases the rigidity of the eye. Older people need to hold the book far away because light focuses behind the retina, not on the retina while looking at close object. |
| Light is focussed on a point BEFORE the retina in myopic or hyperopic people? | myopic |
