Question

d) Vasopressin (a.k.a. antidiuretic hormone) is secreted from this structure. e) This hormone, also produced by the pancreas, has the opposite actions at target cells than insulin. f) This hormone is secreted by the heart. g) The reproductive hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and other androgens) are this type. (Chem.) h) Insulin is this type of hormone. (chemical class) Hormones produced by the adrenal cortex are all this type. Hormones of this chemical class can have receptors inside i) j) k) Growth hormone is produced here l) the cell (e.g., cytosol or nucleus). Epinephrine is this type of hormone. (chemical class)

Explanation / Answer

Question d Answer:posterior pituitary or neurohypophysis

Explanation:Vasopressin is synthesised in supraoptic nucleus of hypothalamus then pass through hypothalamo hypophysial tract to reach posterior pituitary

Question e Answer:glucagon

Explanation: it has an anti insulin effect which lowers the blood sugar level

Question f Answer : Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP)

Explanation:Natriuretic peptides have a tole on blood pressure and volume homeostasis

Question g Answer:steroid harmones

Explanation: steroid harmones are derived from cholesterol

Question h Answer:it is a peptide harmone

Explanation:insulin consists of 51 amino acids.it consists of 21 amino acids A chain and 30 amino cids B chain which are connected by disulphide bridges

Question i Answer: Adrenal cortex secretes 3 types of steroid harmones

Explanation:Adrenal cortex have plenty of cholestrol which makes the precursor for steroid harmones

Question j Answer:steroid harmones which are harmones of adrenal cortex and testosterone estrogen etc and thyroid harmones

Explanation:steroid harmones receptors situated in the cytoplasm of target cells and thyroid harmones receptors situated in nucleus of target cell

Question k Answer:growth harmone is secreted by anterior lobe of pituitary gland

Question l Answer:epinephrine belongs to class catecholamines
