Such changes are known as stimuli and the cells that monitor them are receptors. integration the parallel processing and interpretation of sensory information to determine the appropriate response reaction The activation of muscles or glands (typically via the release of neurotransmitters (NTs) central nervous system The br...

WVU PHYSIO 241 EXAM 7 3 ways to trigger hormone release 1. Neural Stimulation: ex. Neuroendocrine reflex 2. Hormonal Stimulation: A hormone stimulates release of another hormone 3. Humoral Stimulation: a substance in body fluid stimulates release of a hormone Negative Feedback output counteracts a change in input Positive Feedback amplifies initial effect of hormone Neuroendocrine Reflexes produce sudden increase in hormone secretion Diurnal Rhythms Hormone fluctuation over 2...
