Choose the example that does not demonstrate a negative feedback
loop of hormonal control
- A hormone that increases blood pressure is released. Baroreceptors in
the arteries sense the pressure change and stimulate the brainstem to
send signals to dilate blood vessels and counter the effect, decreasing
blood pressure.
- A gland releases hormone that causes free blood glucose to be
collected and stored after a meal. After a time, the gland detects low
free blood glucose and ceases production of the hormone.
- Pressure receptors sense the movement of a baby against and through
the cervix during labor. They stimulate the hypothalamus to release a
hormone that causes uterine contractions. This causes more pressure
-
, receptor stimulation, leading to larger releases of the hormone and
stronger, more frequent contractions. Hormone release ceases after
pressure sensations cease.

- Are very soluble in water
- include epinephrine and norepinephrine
-Must interact with membrane receptors because they are never
membrane permeable.
