Question

Match the hormone to the action(s) it takes in the body. ACTH ________ Analgesia in the brain in response to stress and exercise FSH __________ Follicle maturation and estrogen secretion; sperm cell production GH _________ Increased fat breakdown LH __________ increased glucocorticoid secretion Lipotropins __________ Increased growth in tissues, cartilage and bone, amino acid uptake, protein synthesis, and glycogen and glucose levels MSH ________ Increases the production of melanin in melanocytes PRL __________ Increased thyroid hormone secretion TSH __________ Milk synthesis in lactating women beta endorphins ____________ Ovulation and testosterone synthesis

Explanation / Answer

ACTH - adrenocorticotrophic harmone - increased glucocorticoid secretion

FSH - Follicle stimulating harmone- follicle maturation and estrogen secretion, sperm cells production

GH - growth harmone - increased growth in tissues, cartilage and bone, aminoacid uptake, protein synthesis, glycogen and glucose levels

LH - Luteinizing hormone - ovulation and testosterone synthesis

Lipotrophins - increased fat breakdown

MSH- melanocyte stimulating harmone - increases the production of melanin in melanocytes

PRL - prolactin releasing harmone - miulk synthesis in lactating women

TSH- thyroid stimulaitng harmone - increased thyroid harmone secretion

Beta endorphins - analgesia in the brain in response to stress and excersise.
