Need Help with this Biology questions (Endocrine System)?

Question

1. Hormones act at specific target organs because these organs contain __________ specific for the hormones.

2. __________ (hormone) from the anterior pituitary stimulates secretion of cortisol from the ______ ________ (gland). The anterior pituitary consists of _________ tissue.

3. The zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex primarily produces the hormone ___________, which acts on the _________ (organ) to increase ___ (electrolyte) reabsorption.

4. _______ ________ (gland) is a modified sympathetic ganglion producing the amine hormones known as _______________. This category of amine hormones includes both __________ and ______________ (two hormones).

5. The ___________ (organ) produces a steroid hormone called __Calcitriol__________ in the interstitial cells and a peptide hormone called ___________ that inhibits FSH.

6. Large follicles in this gland (__________) contain a protein colloid called ______________ from which the hormones _______ and ______ are made. These hormones regulate many metabolic functions and are important for nervous system development and growth.

Answer 1

1. Hormones act at specific target organs because these organs contain < receptors >specific for the hormones.

2. < Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACH) > (hormone) from the anterior pituitary stimulates secretion of cortisol from the < adrenal gland > (gland). The anterior pituitary consists of < glandular epithelial > tissue.

3. The zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex primarily produces the hormone < aldosterone >, which acts on the < kidney >(organ) to increase < sodium > (electrolyte) reabsorption.

4. < Adrenal medulla > (gland) is a modified sympathetic ganglion producing the amine hormones known as < catecholamines >. This category of amine hormones includes both < adrenaline (epinepherine) > and < noradrenaline (norepinepherine) > (two hormones).

5. The < testes > (organ) produces a steroid hormone called

< testosterone >in the interstitial cells and a peptide hormone called     < inhibin > that inhibits FSH.

6. Large follicles in this gland ( < thyroid > ) contain a protein colloid called < thyroglobulin > from which the hormones < T3 > and < T4 > are made. These hormones regulate many metabolic functions and are important for nervous system development and growth.

Hope this helps ;)

Answer 2

1. receptors

i dont know the rest

Answer 3

which level of bio is this?

1) receptors/receptor sites

2) ACTH (adrenocorticotrophic hormone) / corticotrophin, ...cortisol from the adrenal glands.

3) cortisol, liver, glucose

5)the peptide hormone - Oxytocin

6) hypothalamus (i can only guess because of the last sentence describing it's functions)

wish i could help!
