Questions and Answers 2023//2024
ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) - Answer-Comes from Pos. Pituitary, Targets kidneys for
water conservation, +/- blood volume and pressure
/.OCT (Oxytocin) - Answer-Comes from Pos. Pituitary, Targets mammary glands and
uterus to induce milk movement into secretory ducts and induce uterine contractions
during childbirth, + cervical & uterine stretching
/.ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone) - Answer-Comes from Ant. Pituitary, Targets the
Zona Fasciculata to stimulate the release of cortisol and adrenal hormones, + CRH
(Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone)
/.TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) - Answer-Comes from Ant. Pituitary, Targets
thyroid gland to stimulate the normal development and release of thyroid hormones, +
TRH (Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone)
/.LH (Luteinizing Hormone) - Answer-Comes from Ant. Pituitary, Targets ovaries and
testes to stimulate estrogen secretion and egg maturation; stimulates sperm production,
+ GnRH (Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone)
/.PRL (Prolactin) - Answer-Comes from Ant. Pituitary, Targets mammary glands to
stimulate and sustain milk production, - PIH ( Prolactin-Inhibitory Hormone)
/.GH (Growth Hormone) - Answer-Comes from Ant. Pituitary, Targets most cells to
promote growth and induce protein synthesis, cell division, and metabolism, (liver,
Bone, Muscle), + GHRH/ - GHIH (Growth Hormone Releasing/Inhibiting Hormones)
/.Cortisol - Answer-Comes from Zona Fasciculata, Targets most cells to promote
breakdown of glycogen, fats, and proteins as energy sources; raise blood level of
glucose. (Skel mus, Adipose, BVs), + ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone)
/.Aldosterone - Answer-Comes from Zona Glomerulosa, Targets the kidney to promote
sodium reabsorption and help control the salt-water balance, ^BP, ^water retention,
^regulate electrolytes
/.Epinephrine (Adrenaline) - Answer-Comes from adrenal medulla, Targets heart, liver,
muscle, and adipose tissue to raise blood level of sugar and fatty acids; increases heart
rate and force of contraction
/.Norepinephrine - Answer-Comes from adrenal medulla, Targets smooth muscle of
blood vessels to promote constriction or dilation of certain blood vessels, thus helps
control the flow of blood volume to different regions of the body
