Homeostasis and
endocrine system
Exam with correct
questions and answers
Q9) In obesity related type II diabetes, levels of the
peptide hormone, insulin, are either normal or
elevated, yet target cells are less sensitive to the
binding of insulin. This suggests that the target cells:
• Are impermeable to insulin
• Have a defect in their receptor signaling
pathway
• Have excess intracellular glucose
• Cannot convert to an active form
Q10) what is the maximum transport rate (TM) of
the carrier depicted below?
• 8
• 10
• 20
• 4
Q11) when steroid hormone bind to their target cell
receptors:
• Transcription of DNA is stimulated
• The Na +/k+ATP ase becomes active
• Ion channels open
• Membrane bound receptors are activated

Q1) Even though no food had entered her stomach,
the smell and sight of food caused Jane’s stomach to
secrete more acid. This is an example of :
• Feed- forward control
• Tonic control
• Negative control
• Antagonistic control
Q2) Jerry is a normal 24 year old male with an
intracellular fluid (ICF) volume of 24 L. What is the
volume of his plasma ?
• 3L
• 9L
• 6L
• 12 L
Q3) In normal female, plasma levels of the hormone
cortisol are highest in the early morning and half
maximal 4:00 in the afternoon. This is an example
of:
• Circadian rhythm
• Antagonistic control
• Tonic control
• Autocrine control
Q4) Estrogen acts in the breast to increase the
growth of the glands and number of estrogen
receptors in the cells. This is an example of:
• Positive feedback
• Negative feedback
• Tonic control
• Antagonistic control

Q6) A membrane that is permeable only to water
separates two solution of glucose dissolved in water.
On one side (A) the glucose concentration is
0.1g/ml. On other side (B) the glucose concentration
is 0.6g/ml. Initially the rate of water flow is:
• More rapid from side B to side A
• The same in both directions
• More rapid from side A to side B
• Zero ( no flow in either direction)
Q7) Larry drank two cups hypotonic soup. How did
the water in the soup distribute into the intracellular
fluid (ICF) and extracellular fluid (ECF)
compartments?
• Net water movement From ICF to ECF but
less than that seen with isotonic fluid
ingestion
• No change in water distribution between ICF
and ECF
• Net water movement from ECF to ICF greater
than that seen with isotonic ingestion
• Water will distribute equally (1/2 and 1/2 )
between ICF and ECF
Q8) The single most important factor that
determines whether a given cell be regulated by the
steroid hormone aldosterone is the presence in this
cell of:
• Active transporters for Aldosterone
• Specific aldosterone receptors
• Heat Shock proteins
