Explanation

Question 35 of 49

1

Non-tropic hormones are hormones that directly stimulate target cells to induce effects. This differs from the tropic hormones, which act on another endocrine gland. Non-tropic hormones are those that act directly on targeted tissues or cells, and not on other endocrine gland to stimulate release of other hormones.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 36 of 49

1

A tropic hormone is one that acts on another endocrine gland, which then produces another hormone.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 37 of 49

1

The anterior pituitary is the main gland that produces tropic hormones. Because the anterior pituitary produces hormones that influence other endocrine glands, we often call it the master gland

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 38 of 49

1

Not all cells respond to endocrine system stimulation. Only those that have the proper receptors on their cell membranes are activated by the messengers. These responsive cells are called the of the endocrine glands. Hormones promote homeostasis by altering activity of the body cells rather than by stimulating new or unusual activities.
