DRAW IT In mammals, milk production by mammary glandsis controlled by prolactin and prolactin-releasing hormone.Draw a simple sketch of this pathway, including glands, tissues,hormones, routes for hormone movement, and effects.
Endocrinologists, scientists and medical doctors who study how hormones work in the body, can track reproductive hormones
in female mammals to determine when and how much of each of the hormones listed in the table above are present in the body
Tracking the leveis of hormones and when they are released provides valuable information for developing tests that can predict
when events, like ovulation, will occur
5.
Given the information in the table above, identify at least threo hormones that, if tracked, would be good indicators that
ovulation is about to occur ina female giant panda.

Match these examples to the correct type of signaling
Estradiol released into the blood stream, acts on the pituitary cells
Oxytocin produced in hypothalamic neurons, released from axons into the blood stream in the posterior hypothalamus
Epithelial cells in arterioles release nitric oxide that causes relaxation of the adjacent smooth muscle cells
Insulin released from the pancreas into the blood, acting on liver cells to simulate glucose uptake
Release of cytokines by a macrophage, with cytokines acting on that macrophage to stimulate its immune function

- Researchers measured prolactin and growth hormone in the blood plasma of six subjects at regular intervals over a 24-hour period. The investigators were interested in determining if the levels of these two hormones cycle over a 24-hour period. The Figure presents the results of their experiments, with the y axis values showing the amount of each hormone expressed as a percentage of the 24-hour mean value, and each point showing the average of the six subjects levels. FIGURE Mean concentrations of prolactin and growth hormone in plasma, averaged for six subjects and expressed as a percentage of the average concentrations measured for the 24-hour period. Do the results support the hypothesis that the changes in prolactin level over a 24-hour period are associated with the sleepwake cycle? Source: From J. F. Sassin et al. 1972.

- Please answer question 27arrow_forwardHormone release and regulation is a complex interplay of control systems, feedback pathways and the concentration of circulating substances. Demonstrate your understanding of how negative feedback systems work by considering what would happen if the usual mechanisms no longer applied. You may like to think about an ectopic source of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), as secreted from a small cell carcinoma of the lung, as an example. In your explanation of how negative feedback systems can be derailed, describe how hormone/s released from the target endocrine organ usually regulate the feedback loop.arrow_forwardIdentify the classical vertebrate endocrine glands and describe the actions of their hormones; describe the effects of hypersecretion and hyposecretion on homeostasis.arrow_forward
- One of the main endocrine glands in the human body is the pituitary gland. This gland produces a variety of hormones with different effects. Among these are a heterogeneous group of hormones called tropic hormones, which directly stimulate the secretion of other hormones from downstream endocrine glands. Which of the following are tropic hormones? Select all that apply.
