A scientist hypothesizes that the pancreas’s hormone production is controlled by neural stimuli. Which observation would support this hypothesis?

  1. Insulin is produced in response to sudden stress without a rise in blood glucose
  2. Insulin is produced in response to a rise in glucagon levels
  3. Beta cells express epinephrine receptors
  4. Insulin is produced in response to a rise in blood glucose in the brain.

The effector is the organ that response to the release of hormones in the body. Based on diagram what organ would be the effector?
Chronic stress or GC exposure can cause insulin resistance. The influence of GC on insulin is complex, but leads to hyperinsulinemia (high circulating insulin levels) and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is typically caused by a decreased number of insulin receptors on the cell surface. Speculate on a mechanism resulting in a decreased number of insulin receptors.
Which statement best describes the relationship between the Endocrine and Nervous Systems? Both systems work with the Urinary System to maintain acid-base balance in the blood Both systems regulate hair growth, temperature regulation,  and hydration Both systems modulate the stress response, sleep/wake cycles, and metabolism Both systems work with the Urinary System to activate Vitamin D
