1Which of these is not a function of the endocrine system?
- ARegulation of the internal environment
- BControl of energy metabolism
- CControl of growth
- DControl of reproduction and development
- EControl of blood circulation
2Hormones are [blank_start]chemical messengers[blank_end] carried in the [blank_start]blood[blank_end], secreted by [blank_start]endocrine gland cells[blank_end]. They travel to all parts of the body but only affect [blank_start]target cells[blank_end].
- Achemical messengers
- Bblood
- Cendocrine gland cells
- Dtarget cells
3Peptides are chains of amino acids which are soluble in water.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
4Choose the correct statements about water-soluble hormones.
- APeptides are the most common kind of water soluble hormones.
- BCatecholamines like noradrenaline and adrenaline are the less common type of water soluble hormones.
- CWater-soluble hormones are made and released immediately via exocytosis.
- DThey travel in the blood dissolved.
- ETheir receptors are intracellular.
5Choose the incorrect statement about lipid-soluble hormones.
- AThey are insoluble in water.
- BSteroids and thyroid hormones are lipid-soluble hormones.
- CThey are transported bound to a carrier protein in the blood.
- DTheir receptors are intracellular.
- EThyroid hormones are not stored, but steroids are stored.
6Steroids are made from modifying the base steroid cholesterol.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
7In the cellular response to receptor activation by water soluble hormones, the [blank_start]binding[blank_end] of the hormone to the membrane receptor activates an [blank_start]associated protein[blank_end]. There is typically an [blank_start]enzyme[blank_end] next in the transfer of information which then produces a [blank_start]secondary messenger[blank_end]. [blank_start]Secondary messengers[blank_end] can go on to activate more proteins and/or enzymes in a chain until the [blank_start]cell response[blank_end] is produced, which can take anywhere from [blank_start]milliseconds to minutes[blank_end].
- Abinding
- Bassociated protein
- Cenzyme
- Dsecondary messenger
- ESecondary messengers
- Fcell response
- Gmilliseconds to minutes
- Hminutes to hours
8Label the steps of cellular responses to lipid-soluble hormones from first (1) to last (7).
[blank_start]3[blank_end]. Hormone binds to intracellular receptor.
[blank_start]7[blank_end]. New protein mediates cell's specific response (hours - days)
[blank_start]4[blank_end]. Hormone-receptor complex acts as a specific transcription factor.
[blank_start]2[blank_end]. Hormone diffuses across membrane.
[blank_start]5[blank_end]. New mRNA is generated.
[blank_start]1[blank_end]. Lipid soluble hormone dissociates from carrier protein.
[blank_start]6[blank_end]. New protein is generated by translation of mRNA- A1
