Endocrine Action correct answers the hormone is distributed in blood and binds to distant target
cells
Paracrine action correct answers the hormone acts locally by diffusing from its source to target
cells in the neighborhood
Ex: B cells (insulin) stimulate the release of a-cells (glucagon), D-cells (hemostatin) block the
release of both b-cells and a-cells
autocrine action correct answers the hormone acts on the same cell that produced it
Ex: NE binding to the GPCR on same axon to stop the release
What are the 6 classes of nutrients? correct answers carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins,
minerals, water
Lipids correct answers insulators- myelin sheaths
membranes - phospholipids (PO4) w/ phospholipid backbone
Carbohydrates correct answers Aldehydes (COR'R) or Ketones (CHOR)
Monosaccharides correct answers glucose, fructose, galactose
Isomers of one another
Dissacharides correct answers A sugar containing two monosaccharides.
Sucrose = glucose + fructose
Lactose = glucose + galactose
Maltase = glucose + glucose
Polysaccharides correct answers Carbohydrates that are made up of more than two
monosaccharides
Starch = glucose + a1->4 link + a1->6 link (tree shape)
Glycogen = glucose + a1->4 + a1->6 link (bush shape = more glucose mobility)
Cellulose = glucose + b1->4 link
