    Match the following hormones with their effects:

    <p>Epinephrine = More potent stimulator of metabolic activities, bronchial dilation, and increased blood flow to skeletal muscles and muscles of the heart Norepinephrine = Has more influence on peripheral vasoconstriction, resulting in a rise in blood pressure Both Epinephrine and Norepinephrine = Released under the influence of sympathetic nervous system Neither Epinephrine nor Norepinephrine = Produced by the adrenal cortex</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Match the following hormones with their potential effects of over secretion:
