    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:

    Match the following statements with the correct hormone:

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