Pre-Lab Questions
”1. What is the function of the endocrine system?”
The endocrine system functions to maintain the body’s homeostasis such as through regulation of
growth, development, blood pressure and reproduction
”2. Research two types of hormones and describe the mode of action for each. ”
Steroid hormones- their actions is through the transcription and translation of the mRNA that act on the
ribosomes to produce the physiological responses on the target cells
Peptide hormones – these hormones act by activating cellular enzymes that activate first messenger
which then activates the second messengers that act on the target cell to produce the physiological
response required.
”3. Which gland is both endocrine and exocrine? ”
The pancreas is both an endocrine and exocrine gland.
”4. Which hormones control the fight or flight response? ”
Adrenaline
”5. What is type 1 diabetes and what is the treatment for this disease? ”
Type one diabetes is caused by autoimmune destruction of B cells of the pancrease that leads to
decreased insulin production or total absence of insulin production making the body not store glucose
leading to hyperglycemia. The treatment of type 1 diabetes is by use of exogenous insulin administered
either subcutaneously/ through the use of insulin pumps.
”6. Describe how Ca2+ levels in the blood are regulated by hormones. ”
Calcium levels in the blood is regulated by the help of two hormones: the parathyroid hormone and
calcitonin. When the ionized calcium levels decrease in the body, the parathyroid hormone is released
from the parathyroid gland that leads to increased absorption of calcium from the instestines and th...
