Describe the catecholamines. Give one example. Describe steroid hormones. Give one example. How are they different in their action and why?

Explain how a second messenger works. Why use a secondmessenger rather than simply relying on the original hormone to produce the desired effect?

Create a hormone map. A complete map will include the secretion signal for the hormone, the origin of the hormone, and hormone targets, and the physiological outcomes of hormone increases or decreases within the body. Be sure to indicate feedback loops within your map. Please provide an explanation of the steps within your map and explain why this interaction is important physiologically.

Briefly explain why the endocrine system is important. Whats are some facts about the Endocrine that's interesting.   Please explain with clarity

Describe the most important actions of neurohypophyseal hormones. What are the effects of under secretion and oversecretion? Give some of the most common examples.

Briefly explain how a non-steroidal hormone exerts a cellular effect. Provide an example of a water soluble hormone and include the gland which secretes the hormone and the name of the target cell/s

Explain how the chemical nature of the plasma membrane acts on the two chemical categories of hormones, and thus the type of response each hormone can induce in a target cell. Be sure to thoroughly describe the two types of cellular responses.

Explain the basis of the fact that nervous control is rapid but of short-duration, whereas hormonal control takes time to start but the effects last a long time. How would body function change if the rate of hormone degradation increased? Decreased?

What are “antagonistic” hormones? Provide an example.

The hormone mechanism which results in the release of intracellular Ca++ is the:   Question options:   PIP 2nd messenger mechanism    humoral mechanism   2nd messenger – adenylate cyclase  mechanism   Steroid hormone mechanism
