NURS 6501 Endocrine QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 100% VERIFIED A+ GUARANTEED
1). Autocrine
Ans: Control in a cell
2). Paracrine
Ans: Control / communication between local cells
3). Endocrine
Ans: control/ communication between cells that are far from each other
4). Hormone secretion pattern
Ans: a) Diurnal b) pulsatile and cyclic c) Patterns that depend on levels of circulating
substrates
5). Elisa
Ans: Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay: used to determine circulating hormone
levels.
a technique used to detect antibodies or infectious agents in a sample. Antibodies are
made in response to infection and so an antibody ELISA can indicate whether or not an
animal has been in contact with a certain virus.
6). Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (trh)
Ans: Anterior pituitary
Stimulates release of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH): modulates prolactin secretion
7). Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (gnrh)
Ans: Anterior Pituitary
Simulates release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)
