- They are released in times of increased stress.
- They stimulate gluconeogenesis.
- They are hyperglycemic.
- High concentrations of glucocorticoids in the blood cause a decrease in defense mechanisms such as immunity and allergic responses

What test for lipids?
The purpose of blood lipid testing is to determine whether abnormally high or low concentrations of a specific lipid are present.

When the elodea leaf is moved from salt solution n placed back in water what happens to the cells?
When you deal with problems like this, you need to consider diffusion and osmosis. In this case, you would refer to diffusion, which is the movement of water across a membrane from high concentrations to low concentrations (to try to balance the concentrations). First consider what happens to the cells when you place the elodea leaf in the salt solution; the water in the cells tries to balance the high concentration of salt (sodium chloride) in the surrounding solution, so the water leaves the leaf, thus the cells shrink. Now when you put the elodea leaf into regular water again, there is a higher concentration of water in the surrounding environment compared to inside the leaf's cells, so in attempt to balance concentrations, water goes INTO the cells, thus the cells in the elodea leaf swell (expand).
What medical condition is associated with high blood concentrations of uric acid?
High blood concentrations of uric acid can lead to gout. Gout is the most commonly associated medical condition with high blood concentrations of uric acid.
Which vessel would carry blood high in nutrients?
veins carry blood with high concentrations of waste products and arteries carry blood with high concentrations of nutrients
What is a cuttlefishes color of blood?
The color of cuttlefish blood is a blue-green due to the high concentrations of copper that it contains.

What is the name of high level stress hormone?
Glucocorticoids
Red blood cells with high oxygen concentrations are bright red because of the presence of what?
this better to say blood with high CO2 concentration is dark and blood with high CO (Carbon monoxide toxemia) is bright, so O2 saturated blood is just NORMAL.

How does the water in the cells behave when in high or low concentrations of water?
In high solute concentrations water will flow out of the cell. In low solute concentrations water will flow into the cell.
