Question 8
What are the TARGETS of these hormones?
growth hormone-releasing hormone
[ Choose ] thyroid gonads anterior pituitary hypothalamus posterior pituitary
gonadotropin-releasing hormone
[ Choose ] thyroid gonads anterior pituitary hypothalamus posterior pituitary
somatostatin
[ Choose ] thyroid gonads anterior pituitary hypothalamus posterior pituitary
follicle stimulating hormone
[ Choose ] thyroid gonads anterior pituitary hypothalamus posterior pituitary
luteinizing hormone
[ Choose ] thyroid gonads anterior pituitary hypothalamus posterior pituitary
Question 9
The hormones antidiuretic hormone and [ Select ] ["prolactin", "ACTH", "oxytocin"] are produced in the [ Select ] ["pineal gland", "thyroid", "hypothalamus"] and released by the [ Select ] ["adrenal glands", "medulla oblongata", "posterior pituitary"] after transport by [ Select ] ["dendrites", "axons", "Schwann cells"]
Question 10
As a general principle, high levels of hormones secreted by the [ Select ] ["parathyroid", "thyroid", "anterior pituitary"] cause their target organs to [ Select ] ["grow larger", "stop growing", "shrink"] , so they are labeled "trophic hormones".
Question 11
Surgical removal of the gonads leads to an increase in secretion of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, because of the [ Select ] ["higher levels of", "lower levels of"] estrogens and androgens after surgery and the subsequent [ Select ] ["increased", "reduced"] inhibition of secretion of [ Select ] ["ACTH", "gonadotropin releasing hormone"] from the hypothalamus. This is an example of [ Select ] ["positive", "negative"] feedback in the endocrine system.
