Stimulates thyroid gland to secrete thyroid hormone a FSH b GH c TSH 7 7. Which statement about the endocrine system is true? a Effects are short-lived b Endocrine glands respond quickly to stimuli c Endocrine glands are ductless glands secreting hormones into blood 8 8. Steroid hormones a activate enzymes outside cell b pass through cell wall and bind to receptors in nucleus c bind to receptor on cell wall triggering second messenger 9 9. What is a second messenger system? a A chemical that prolongs hormone effects b A set of hormones carrying primary hormones to target cells c Cascade of processes influencing cell's response to hormone 10 10. Protein-based hormones exert effects by a binding with nucleus b binding directly with DNA c activating enzymes within a cell (via second messenger) 11 11. Which gland influences more body processes than any other? a pituitary gland b adrenal gland c thyroid gland 12 12. Which statement about the anterior pituitary is correct? a It releases hormones into hypophyseal portal system b It stores hypothalamic hormones c It consists of neural tissue 13 13. One endocrine gland stimulates another to secrete a hormone, which then inhibits first gland. This is a positive feedback b negative feedback c second messenger 14 14. The pineal gland secretes a gonadotropin b oxytocin c melatonin 15 15. Which gland is part of both endocrine and immune systems? a adrenal glands b thymus c thyroid gland 16 16. Which hormone is secreted by thyroid gland? a calcitonin b thyrotropin c parathyroid hormone 17 17. Increasing blood calcium would cause a parathyroid gland to secrete PTH b thyroid gland to release calcitonin c adrenal medulla to secrete catecholamines 18 18. Effect of parathyroid hormone? a Movement of calcium from blood to bone b Excretion of calcium in intestines c Reabsorption of calcium by kidneys 19 19. After thyroid removal, patient has severe spasms. Most likely cause? a suppression of calcitonin only b release of PTH increased calcium c parathyroid glands removed too, so low PTH and calcium decline 20 20.

Thyroid hormone affects heat production by a promoting catecholamine secretion b stimulating metabolism c causing shivering 23 23. Which statement about adrenal cortex is correct? a It consists of three layers each secreting a corticosteroid b It acts as part of sympathetic nervous system c It contains chromaffin cells 24 24. Increased output from zona glomerulosa would cause a increased potassium levels b increased sodium levels c increased blood glucose 25 25. During stress, most active adrenal cortex layer is a zona reticularis b zona fasciculata c zona glomerulosa 26 26. Which statement about glucocorticoids is correct? a They destabilize blood pressure b They aid repair of damaged tissue c They boost immune system long-term 27 27. Effect common to glucagon, catecholamines, glucocorticoids? a They are secreted only when glucose falls b They cause blood glucose to fall c They boost blood glucose levels 28 28. Which statement about pancreas is correct? a It secretes digestive enzymes into small intestine b Islets have single cell type c It is primarily endocrine 29 29. Which cells secrete insulin? a delta cells b alpha cells c beta cells 30 30. Between meals, when blood sugar declines a alpha cells secrete glucagon b beta cells secrete insulin c delta cells secrete somatostatin 31 31. Characteristic of type I diabetes? a It results from insulin resistance b It occurs after age 40 c It is autoimmune attacking beta cells 32 32. In what way does microbiome resemble endocrine organ? a It stays constant throughout life b It can act as unit to influence other organs and respond to secretions c It secretes single hormone 33 33. Which action of microbiome affects mood/behavior? a Inhibit cortisol b Affect estrogen, androgens, testosterone levels c Alter insulin levels 34 34. Which statement best describes HPA axis? a It ultimately leads to cortisol secretion to cope with stress b It prompts amygdala directly c It triggers immediate sympathetic nervous stimulation 35 35. The more ___ a cell has, the more sensitive it will be to a hormone. a hormones b receptors c glands 36 36. The anterior pituitary consists of ___ tissue and is called the ___. a neural; neurohypophysis b modified neurons; catecholamines c glandular; adenohypophysis 37 37. The posterior pituitary consists of ___ tissue and is called the ___. a glandular; adenohypophysis b neural; neurohypophysis c glandular; corticosteroids 38 38. The adrenal medulla consists of ___ that secrete ___. a modified neurons; catecholamines b glandular cells; corticosteroids c beta cells; insulin 39 39. The adrenal cortex consists of ___ tissue that secretes different types of ___. a neural; catecholamines b modified neurons; catecholamines c glandular; corticosteroids 40 40. The middle layer of adrenal cortex is ___ and it secretes ___ a zona reticularis; sex steroids b zona glomerulosa; mineralocorticoids c zona fasciculata; glucocorticoids 41 41. The innermost layer of adrenal cortex is ___ and it secretes ___ a zona fasciculata; glucocorticoids b zona glomerulosa; mineralocorticoids c zona reticularis; sex steroids 42 42.
