Endocrine Glands(A) |Questions and Answers \ Practise Questions and
answers
The main center for the endocrine system is in ** Answ** the hypothalamus
The first signal to endocrine glands comes from ** Answ** hypothalamus
Hypothalamus contains ** Answ** some nuclei
Each nucleus secretes two types of hormones: ** Answ** releasing hormones and inhibit-
releasing hormones
The releasing hormones from hypothalamus are ** Answ** released into anterior pituitary or
"hypophyseal glands"
And hypophyseal (anterior pituitary) glands secretes ** Answ** stimulating hormone
Each stimulating hormone stimulates ** Answ** the peripheral glands
What to generally know about the endocrine system? ** Answ** What is the endocrine
system, where is the center, and how it works
The hypothalamus releases ** Answ** -releasing hormones into anterior lobe of
hypophyseal gland
-and hypophyseal gland cells release stimulating hormone
-stimulating hormone is then carried by bloodstream to peripheral gland
And peripheral gland secretes ** Answ** specific endocrine hormones
And that endocrine hormone ** Answ** controls many functions/systems
, Where does inhibit releasing hormone come from? ** Answ** The hypothalamus
What is inhibit releasing hormone? ** Answ**
We have 2 commonly known inhibit releasing hormones: ** Answ** dopamine and
somatostatin
Dopamine ** Answ** inhibits prolactin secretion
Somatostatin ** Answ** the inhibitor of growth hormone
What does endocrine hormone mean ** Answ** that after secretion or production of this
hormone by endocrine gland it is released into the bloodstream
endocrine hormones ** Answ** chemicals secreted by endocrine glands directly into the
blood
exocrine hormone examples ** Answ** sweat glands and salivary glands
exocrine hormones means ** Answ** that they are released into a duct which opens into a
cavity
Sometimes we have what type of hormone ** Answ** paracrine hormone
Paracrine hormone means ** Answ** that hormone inhibits neighboring cell's hormone
secretion
Paracrine hormone example ** Answ** somatostatin
