Why is the follicle-stimulating hormone test performed on men?
it can be used to determine early puberty, abnormal tissue growth on one or more of the hormone-secreting (endocrine) glands (called multiple endocrine neoplasia), or to diagnose other disorders
State the hormone that normally stimulates the thyroid and the tissue where this hormones originates?
the thyroid stimulating hormone (tsh)..tsh is produced in the anterior pituitary lobe
What makes a tissue a target tissue?
Fat tissue and liver
What is test that measures hormone levels in plasma?
There is no single answer to the question, because there are many known hormones that can be tested. A Hormone is any chemical released by a Gland (any tissue that secretes chemical messages) that affects a different tissue in the body. Hormones control the body's growth functions, as well as the male and female reproductive cycles, immune responses, male and female sexual arousal (arousal not the response), energy, and even the flight or fight response. The most commonly known hormone is Thyroid Stimulating hormone. The most commonly prescribed hormone is the combination of estrogen/progesterone used for birth control.
Follicle sheath that consists of dermal tissue?
pretty sure its the outer root
What role do tropic hormone have on endocrine system?
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) are similar glycoproteins. FSH and LH are also called gonadotropins because they stimulate the activities of the gonads.TSH promotes normal development of the thyroid gland and the production of thyroid hormones.Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is a peptide hormone that stimulates the production and secretion of steroid hormones by the adrenal cortex.signals to the brain stimulate release of an anterior pituitary tropic hormone. The tropic hormone then acts on its target endocrine tissue, stimulating secretion of a hormone that exerts systemic metabolic or developmental effects.
What makes one tissue a target tissue and another not a target tissue for a hormone?
A tissue becomes a target tissue when it is affected or stimulated by a specific amino acid. The target tissue has the appropriate receptors to make it susceptible to the hormone.
Which one is the main primary target tissue of Parathyroid hormone the kidney or bones?
The main primary target tissue of the Parathyroid hormone is the bone, but the kidneys are a target as well.
What is the destination for a hormone?
Target tissue
Why is the follicle-stimulating hormone test performed on men?
it can be used to determine early puberty, abnormal tissue growth on one or more of the hormone-secreting (endocrine) glands (called multiple endocrine neoplasia), or to diagnose other disorders
State the hormone that normally stimulates the thyroid and the tissue where this hormones originates?
the thyroid stimulating hormone (tsh)..tsh is produced in the anterior pituitary lobe
What luteinizing hormone?
the anterior pituitary gland produces LH but its target tissue is the gonads.
Choose one endocrine gland how does it work?
target tissue and it produces the hormone which it responds
What glands luteinizing hormone?
the anterior pituitary gland produces LH but its target tissue is the gonads.
What is the specific target tissue of TSH and describe it's specific action?
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) targets TSH receptors primarily in the thyroid gland. TSH fits like a key into the receptors (lock) and turns the thyroid 'on' so it will produce thyroid hormones.
What hormone is released from adipose tissue?
Leptin is a hormone released by adipose tissue.
What are target tissues?
when the chemicals arrive in the right places, the target tissues, they start to do their work. a group of cells that have receptors embedded in the plasma membrane that are complementary in shape to specific hormone molecules. Only these cells will respond to that specific hormone.
