6. Which of the following is a target cell response that might result from a hormone sitmulation? a) synthesis of proteins or other regulataory molecules in the target cell b) change in cell membrane permeability c) modify the gene response of a cell d)stimulate cell secretion action e) enzyme activation or deactivation

 

 

6. Which homrone is reponsible for the following:

 

stimulates protein synthesis- growth hormone

stimulates liver glycogenloysis- ephinephrine

stimulates lipogenesis and storage of excess fuel

stimulates gluconeogenesis- cortisol

released from a sympathetic nerve ganglia when the body is stressed

can be stored in its gland for future release

 

 

15. Several of the hormones released during a stress response act to 'decrease peripheral glucose utilization.' What does this mean? What is the effect of decreasing peripheral glucose utilization?

 

10. Mark each statement that is correct.

a) Hormone action at the cell can varybased on the presence or absence of other hormones.

b) Hormones effects occur as soon as the hormone binds ito its receptor

c) The duration of hormone action is variable

d) Down-regulation can involved a reduction in the number of hormone receptors on a target cell

 

12. Endocrine disease or disorders can produce a range of symptoms that result from long term increases or decreases in hormone action on target cells. Which of the following situations might alter hormone action on its target cell (and produce disease)?

a) target cell receptor is missing or defective

b) hormone inactivation or exertion is decreased

c) metabolic pathway that synthesizes the hormone is defective

d) target cell response to the hormone is enhanced

 

14. Several hormones are released during a stress response in order to help the body repond to the stressor. Which of the following hornomes would be released during a stress event?

a) norephinerephrine

b) testosterone

c) insulin

d)cortisol

e) somatotrophin

f) thyroxine

g) GHRN

h) ACTH
