 nervous system | what system would be used for short term change? |
| endocrine | big changes in metabolism are made by what system? |
| Nervous | What tissue of the four basic tissue typs do you find in the hypothalumus? |
| epithelial | most endocrine glands are made up of what tissue? |
| Thalumus | All sensory information is relayed from the? |
| stress | hypothalumus responds to? |
| fight or flight | hypothalumus has one response and that is? |
| epinephrine | whats the hormone that responds to fight or flight? |
| sodium, glucose in the blood | Cells of adrenal cortex secrets hormones that influence? |
| good, because hormones are realeased into your blood stream | does endocrine glands have a good or bad blood suply? why? |
| hypothalumus, adenohypohesis | hypophiseal protal veins connect the capillary bed of the ___________ with the capillary bed of the _____________ |
| T3 and T4 | follicle cells release what hormones? |
| protein synthasis | T3 and T4 help regulate? |
| basic metablolic rate | protein synthasis is all about? |
| signal from the hypothalumus | how does the anterior patuitary know to release TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) |
| basic metabolic rate | hypothalumus has contorl over? |
| simple diffusion | basic process in gas exchange in carbon dioxide and oxygen is by? |
| A buffer | limits the potential change in PH is called? |
| liver | HGH |
| liver | Somatotrophin |
| thyroid | (TSH) thyroid-stimulating hormone |
| testes ovaries, produce sperm | (FSH) follicle-stimulating hormone |
| testes ovaries, produce testosterone | (LH) Luteinizing hormone |
| mammary glands | (PRL) prolactin |
| adrenal cortex | (ACTH) adrenocorticotropic hormone |
| adrenal cortex | Corticotrophin |
| brain | Melonocyte (MSH) |
| 1. signals from the nervous system 2. chemical changes in the blood 3. and other hormones | Hormone secretion is regulated by 1. 2. 3. |
| 1. cardiac conduction 2. atrioventricular bundle-bundle of fibers that carry cardiac impulses 3. atrioventricular node- a section of the nodel tissue that delays and relays cardiac impulses 4. purkinje fibers- fiber branches that extend from the atriovenricular bundle 5. sinoatrial node- A section of the nodal tissue that sets the rate of contraction for the heart | 1. This is the rate at which the heart conducts electrical impulses: (2-5) the following structures play an important role in causeing the heart to conduct. (List functions too) |
| Respiratory pump mechanism | Pressure changes occur in the thoracic and abdominal cavities during inspiration and expiration. This compresses veins and assists blood return to the heart. |
| The muscle pump mechanism | Muscular contractions compress the veins, squeezing blood back towards the heart. |
| diastole phase- the heart ventricles are relaxed and heart fills with blood. systole phase- heart ventricles contract and pump blood to artaries | The sequence of events that occurs when the heart beats. (2) list functions |
