What hormone is the basal metabolic hormone?
adrenocorticotropic hormone in the anterior pituitary and the Thyroxine(t4) in the Thyroid gland.
What gland releases the hormone that triggers the thyroid gland to release thyroxine?
the anterior pituitary gland.
Exert negative feedback on the anterior pituitary relative to fsh secretion?
Estrogen and progesterone.
What gland synthesizes T3 and T4 hormones?
The hormone that regulates the synthesis and secretion of T3 (Triiodothyronine) and T4 (Thyroxine) by the thyroid gland is thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) that is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, also known as the adenohypophysis.
What gland is primarily affected if ACTH does cause a normal elevation of cortisol secretion?
Anterior pituitary
What gland is primarily affected if ACTH does not cause a normal elevation of cortisol secretion?
Anterior pituitary
Where is thyroid stimulating hormone TSH synthesized?
it is produced in the anterior pituitary gland, which stimulates the release of thyroxine form the thyroid gland
Why is the understanding of chemical bonds leads to a better understanding of how the human body maintains homeostasis?
hypothalmus recieves chemical responses by surface receptors, postior and anterior pituitary glands secrete a wide range of chemicals based on response horomones secreted from the hypothalmus after feedback
Which hormone is stored in the anterior pituitary gland?
growth hormone, Thyroxine releasing hormone, gonadotrophins - FSH and LH, prolactin
The surge in LH secretion from the anterior pituitary that causes ovulation can be partially explained by the?
positive feedback of estradiol that increases the release of LH
What hormones inhibits secretion of follicle stimulating hormone by the anterior pituitary?
inhibin and estrogen in females, inhibin and testosterone in males
If the connection between the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus were severed how would this effect the secretion of epinephrine?
The connection between the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus is necessary for survival because specific releasing hormones in the hypothalamus trigger the production and release of hormones made in the ant. pit. Seeing how the secretion of epinephrine would be triggered in the adrenal medula by a hormone produced in the ant. pit., I believe that the secretion of epinephrine would not occur if the connection between the hypothalamus and ant. pit. were to be severed.
