Chapter 46, Problem 4IQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: That how would the levels of leptin production is affected suppose the GIP and CCK sensors in the hypothalamus does not work.
Introduction: Hypothalamus is a portion of the brain. It contains a number of small nuclei with a variety of functions. One of the most essential functions of the hypothalamus is to link the nervous system to the endocrine system via the pituitary gland.

What fraction of the receptors will have hormone bound?If a meaningful physiological response occurs when 50% ofthe receptors have bound a hormone molecule, how muchwill the concentration of hormone have to rise to elicit aresponse?
