Nervous vs Endocrine System Quiz

Nervous System = Sends impulses, react quickly Endocrine System = Sends out hormones, slower reaction Chemicals = Act as both neurotransmitter and hormones Exocrine System = Produces eggs and sperm

TRH (Thyrotropin-releasing hormone) = Stimulates thyroid for hormone GH (Growth hormone) = Stimulates mitosis and cell differentiation FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) = Stimulates follicle in women LH (Luteinizing hormone) = Stimulates Lydia cells in men

Somatostatin = Inhibits growth hormone Dopamine = Inhibit prolactin Delta cells = Inhibits release of pancreatic hormones Anterior pituitary = Secrete insulin during and after meals

<p>Posterior pituitary = ADH - released when body needs to retain water Beta cells = Secrete insulin during and after meals Alpha cells = Secrete glucagon between meals, when blood glucose levels decrease Delta cells = Secrete somatostatin, inhibits release of pancreatic hormones</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>LH (Luteinizing hormone) = Hormone that stimulates Lydia cells in men FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) = Hormone that stimulates follicle in women ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) = Hormone released when body needs to retain water GH (Growth hormone) = Hormone that stimulates mitosis and cell differentiation</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>CRH (Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone) = Releases ACTH to stimulate adrenal cortex for glucocorticoids TRH (Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone) = Releases TSH to stimulate thyroid for hormone PRH (Prolactin-Releasing Hormone) = Releases Prolactin to stimulate production of milk GnRH (Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone) = Releases LH and FSH for various functions</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Hypothalamus = Produces various releasing hormones like TRH, CRH, GH Anterior Pituitary = Produces TSH, ACTH, GH, Prolactin Posterior Pituitary = Releases ADH and Oxytocin Delta cells = Secrete somatostatin to inhibit release of pancreatic hormones</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>LH (Luteinizing hormone) = Stimulates progesterone-ovulation in women FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) = Stimulates follicle for uterine preparation in women Gonadotropin LH = Stimulates Lydia cells for testosterone production in men Gonadotropin FSH = Stimulates Sertoli cells for sperm production in men</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>CRH - Corticotropin-releasing hormone = Stimulates adrenal cortex for glucocorticoids PRH - Prolactin-releasing hormone = Stimulate production of milk GnRH - Gonadotropin-releasing hormone = Stimulates gonadotropins LH and FSH Somatostatin = Inhibits the release of other hormones</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>GH - Growth Hormone = Stimulates growth and cell reproduction ADH - Antidiuretic Hormone = Regulates water balance by reducing urine production CRH - Corticotropin-releasing hormone = Stimulates release of corticosteroids from adrenal cortex FSH - Follicle Stimulating Hormone = Controls egg development in females and sperm production in males</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Nervous system = Sends impulses to specific target areas, reacts quickly, stops when stimulus ends, fast effect for short time. Endocrine system = Sends out hormones for general widespread effects, slower reaction, can last for days, slow effects that last longer. Chemicals = Act as both neurotransmitter and hormones.
