Pituitary Gland
Thyroid-Stimulating
Hormone (TSH)
Thyroid Gland
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
Kidneys
Human Growth Hormone (hGH)
All Cells of the Body
Glucagon
Liver
Calcitonin (name 2 out of 3)
Kidney, bones, and Intestines
Decreases blood glucose levels (liver
converts glucose to glycogen and cells
become permeable to glucose)
Insulin
Increases heart rate, breathing rate and cell metabolism in response to stress
Epinephrine
Increases metabolism and regulates growth (contains iodine)
Thyroxine (T4) – Triiodothyronine
(T3)
Increases blood calcium levels
Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)
Targets the adrenal cortex to secrete
mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids
Adreno-corticotropic
Hormone (ACTH)
What do we call two hormones that play
opposite functions in order to maintain
homeostasis
Antagonistic hormones
Responds to osmoreceptors that detect high blood concentration and low blood presure
Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH)
The type of feedback system that works to move away from a steady state and is designed to resist
change
Positive Feedback
Antagonistic hormones
responsible for maintaining blood
sugar levels
Insulin and glucagon
Antagonistic hormones
responsible for maintaining calcium
levels in the blood
Parathyroid hormone and
calcitonin
The term for a hormone that acts on an endocrine gland to release another
hormone
Tropic hormone
A condition caused by the hyper-
secretion of hGH in adulthood
Acromegaly
Condition caused by the hypo-
secretion of insulin (usually diagnosed
in childhood)
Type 1 Diabetes
The name of the tallest man in
modern day that had a brain tumor
causing hyper-secretion of hGH
Robert Wadlow
A hormone other than ADH that responds to the
body’s need for the reabsorption of
water
Aldosterone
The islets of Langerhans are
tiny islands off the coast of Ireland
The use of anabolic steroids may reduce the size of testis in
men
True fact
The adrenal medulla is the outside of the adrenal gland and
produces epinephrine
In long term stress responses, proteins and fats are broken
down and blood glucose is increased
True fact
Diabetes insipidus is caused by the
failure of the anterior pituitary to
secrete enough ADH
Make your wager
What type of hormone is the above diagram representing?
Give an example
Water soluble or protein hormones. Most hormones are
of this type, so answers will vary
