Bio 255 Final Exam Questions With Verified
Solutions
The neurohypophysis or posterior lobe of the pituitary gland is not a true endocrine gland because
it is only a hormone storage area receiving hormones made by the hypothalamus for release
.
The hormone made by the pineal gland is
melatonin
several hormones are synthesizes in the hypothalamus and transported to the anterior pituitary
gland. The mechanism of transportation from hypothalamus to anterior through the
hypophyseal portal system
The parathyroid glands maintain adequate levels of blood calcium. This is accomplished through
targeting the bone and activating osteoclasts so that calcium will be released.
.
The fasting hormone, made by your pancreas while you sleep to maintain you blood glucose is

hormone is called
prolactin
The parathyroid glands are derived from
endoderm
When we ingest large molecules such as lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins, they must be broken into
smaller molecules. This series of reactions is called
digestion

Which is an exocrine product of the pancreas?
Lipase Enzyme
The terminal portion of the small intestine is known as the
Ileum
