Accepted Answer

The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine, which increases the metabolic rate, and calcitonin, which inhibits the release of calcium from bone storage sites.

 Hormones are chemical messengers that travel through the bloodstream to affect distant parts of the body.

Answer: J
 The parathyroid gland secretes parathyroid hormone (PTH), which promotes the release of calcium from bone storage sites.

Answer: M
 The posterior pituitary gland secretes oxytocin, which stimulates uterine contraction and milk ejection, and antidiuretic hormone, which helps regulate water balance in the body.

Which part of figure above related to : 
-adrenal glands

Accepted Answer

The answer of Figure 34.1

Which part of figure above...

Question 9

Respond to the following statements in reference to the five endocrine glands listed below. Choices may be used more than once or not at all.
-This gland secretes a hormone that prepares and maintains the uterus for pregnancy.
A)adrenal cortex
B)ovary
C)pineal
D)parathyroid
E)Testes

Accepted Answer

The ovary secretes the hormone progesterone, which prepares and maintains the uterus for pregnancy. The adrenal cortex secretes hormones such as cortisol and aldosterone, which regulate metabolism and electrolyte balance. The pineal gland secretes the hormone melatonin, which regulates sleep patterns. The parathyroid glands secrete parathyroid hormone, which regulates calcium levels in the blood. The testes secrete testosterone, which regulates male characteristics and reproductive function.

Question 10

Respond to the following statements in reference to the five endocrine glands listed below. Choices may be used more than once or not at all.
-Progesterone is produced by this gland.
A)adrenal cortex
B)ovary
C)pineal
D)parathyroid
E)Testes

Accepted Answer

Progesterone is primarily produced by the ovaries, particularly during the second half of the menstrual cycle. Although the adrenal cortex can also produce progesterone in small amounts, it is not the primary gland responsible for its production. The pineal gland produces melatonin, the parathyroid gland produces parathyroid hormone, and the testes produce testosterone.

Question 11

The adrenal cortex secretion that controls sodium and water reabsorption by the kidneys is _____.  
A) cortisol
B) epinephrine
C) aldosterone
D) norepinephrine
E) adrenocorticotropic hormone

Accepted Answer

Aldosterone is the hormone secreted by the adrenal cortex that regulates sodium and water reabsorption by the kidneys.

Question 12

Respond to the following statements in reference to the five endocrine glands listed below. Choices may be used more than once or not at all.
-This gland controls circadian rhythms
A)adrenal cortex
B)ovary
C)pineal
D)parathyroid
E)Testes

Accepted Answer

The pineal gland is responsible for producing the hormone melatonin, which regulates sleep-wake cycles and controls circadian rhythms.

Question 13

Figure 34.1

Which part of figure above related to : 
-hypothalamus

Accepted Answer

The hypothalamus contains centers concerned with body temperature regulation and with salt and water balance.

Answer: C
 Messages from the hypothalamus influence sleep and wakefulness.

Answer: I
 The hypothalamus is often called the "emotional-visceral brain."

Answer: J
 The hypothalamus consists of sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.

Answer: N
 The hypothalamus is responsible for the "rest and digest" response.

Question 14

When blood glucose is low,__________ is secreted,which calls for the liver to break down glycogen.

Accepted Answer

The answer of When blood glucose is low,__________ is secreted,which...

Question 15

-ovaries

Accepted Answer

The answer of Figure 34.1

Which part of figure above...

Question 16

Classification. Respond to the following statements in reference to the five hormones listed below. Choices may be used more than once or not at all.
-The kidneys are the target for this hormone.
A)estrogen
B)luteinizing hormone
C)growth hormone
D)oxytocin
E)antidiuretic hormone

Accepted Answer

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is produced by the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary gland. Its primary function is to regulate water balance in the body by controlling the reabsorption of water in the kidneys. Therefore, the kidneys are the target for this hormone.

Question 17

Respond to the following statements in reference to the five endocrine glands listed below. Choices may be used more than once or not at all.
-Calcium concentration in the blood is controlled by this gland.
A)adrenal cortex
B)ovary
C)pineal
D)parathyroid
E)Testes

Accepted Answer

The parathyroid gland regulates the concentration of calcium in the blood through the production of parathyroid hormone.
