- Figure 37.14 Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is overactive. Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is underactive. Which of the conditions are the following two patients most likely to have? Patient A has symptoms including weight gain, cold sensitivity, low heart rate, and fatigue. Patient B has symptoms including weight loss, profuse sweating, increased heart rate, and difficulty sleeping.arrow_forwardAddisons disease develops when the adrenal cortex does not secrete enough mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids. President John F. Kennedy was diagnosed with the disease when he was a young man. Before he started treatment with hormone replacement therapy, he was hypoglycemic and lost weight. Which missing hormone was responsible for his weight loss? How might Addisons disease have affected his blood pressure?arrow_forwardSelect ALL the statements that are correct. Growth hormone production is inhibited by somatostatin. Growth hormone production is stimulated by the release of the tropic hormone GHRH in the hypothalamus. Growth hormone production is inhibited by IGF-1 which is secreted by the liver. Gigantism and acromegaly differ in that gigantism is due to oversecretion of GHRH, not GH.arrow_forward
- Explain that PTH and calcitonin act in a complementary way to control blood calcium levelarrow_forwardWhat is NOT an effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH)?a. increased absorption of calcium ions by the small intestineb. increased osteoblast activityc. increased reabsorption of calcium ions from fluid in the kidneysd. increased release of calcium ions from bonearrow_forward10 days after thyroid surgery, a patient returns to his physician complaining of problems that have gradually developed in the intervening period. It is determined that he has parathyroid deficiency due to inadvertent damage to the parathyroid glands because his signs and symptoms include Group of answer choices a low plasma Ca2+ level, increased muscular excitability, and spasm of the muscles of the upper extremity (Trousseau sign) low plasma phosphate and Ca2+ levels and tetany low plasma phosphate and Ca2+ levels and tetanus increased muscular excitability, a high plasma Ca2+ level, and bone demineralization.arrow_forward
- Betty has a calcium poor diet and because of her age (menopause years) she is concerned about becoming hypocalcemic (low blood calcium). Once the blood levels of calcium start dropping, the body will compensate for hypocalcemia. Receptors continually feed the brain’s hypothalamus (blood-calcium regulatory center) information on calcium blood levels. The parathyroid gland will be stimulated to release parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH will stimulate osteoclast cells to break down bone and release the stored calcium to the blood, raising the calcium blood level. a. What is the stimulus?b. What is the control center?c. Identify the control center’s response to the stimuli?d. Does the response stop/reverse the stimuli or enhance the stimuli?e. Is the body’s response a negative or positive feedback?arrow_forward● True or False: Calcitonin is antagonistic to parathyroid hormone (PTH). True Falsearrow_forwardWhen the body calcium is low, PTH is secreted by the parathyroid glands which will increase levels of ________________________. 25 (OH)2D2 1,25 (OH)2D3 1 (OH)2D3 1,25 (OH)2Darrow_forward
- How does Parathyroid Hormone elevate blood calcium levels? by increasing the amount of CA2+ removed from the blood by the kidneys by decreasing the amount of CA2+ absorbed from the gut into the blood by increasing the number and activity of osteoclasts by increasing the number and activity of osteoblastsarrow_forwardWhy does the release of cortisol during the stress response have a negative effect on bone density? Cortisol increases serum calcium to fuel muscle contraction during the fight or flight responseCortisol reduces estrogen production and triggers early menopause Cortisol draws calcium out of the bones to increase serum calcium to fuel muscle contraction during the fight or flight response Cortisol decreases calcium to fuel muscle contraction during the fight or flight responsearrow_forwardSelect the numbers of the descriptors below that correctly describe the hormone thyroxine Produced in the parathyroid gland Produced in the thyroid gland Increases the rate of fat, protein, and carbohydrate metabolism Increases the rate of calcium ion absorption Controlled by positive feedback Controlled by negative feedback Insufficiency results in fatigue and weight gain Insufficiency results in excess energy and weight loss Acsending Orderarrow_forward
