Some people with onset insomnia are told by their doctors to wear sunglasses at night before going to bed. If effective, what would be the likely mechanism behind this? The retinohypothalamic tract (RHT) signaling to the pineal gland to start the production of melatonin A signal to your tuberomammillary nucleus to stop producing histamine This would trigger the lateral hypothalamus to decrease orexin production You blink more when you have sunglasses on, which initiates NREM1

The human sleep-wake cycle is regulated by melatonin. The synthesis of melatonin is regulated by light exposure (Figure 1). The human body typically develops a sleep-wake rhythm that does not respond quickly to change. Long-term exposure to extended periods of bright light after sunset is most likely to affect a person in which of the following ways? a) Melatonin synthesis will be increased, and the person will quickly fall asleep. b) Melatonin synthesis will be inhibited, and the person will have difficulty sleeping. c) Melatonin synthesis will be inhibited, and the person will quickly fall asleep. d) Melatonin synthesis will be increased, and the entire sleep-wake cycle will be shifted by several hours.
What is the role of the adrenal cortex & medulla in the fight or flight response? I know that when the body starts to begin the process of the fight or flight repsonse that the adrenal medulla releases adrenaline (epinephrine hormones). Is that the only role the adrenal medulla has? I dont know what the role of the adrenal cortex has in the fight or flight response. I think it might have something to do with cortisol, which is the primary stress hormone.

2.5. About the pituitary gland, what are the correct statements? PHYSIOLOGY_basic (OJO) Adrenalin is secreted by the pituitary gland. The anterior pituitary gland is also called neurohypophysis. Anterior pituitary cells called somatotropic cells secrete growth hormone (GH). Posterior pituitary gland contains axons and axon terminals of numerous neurosecretory cells whose cell bodies are located in the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland secretes hormones that are peptides or small protein hormones binding to membrane receptors.
