C405 Anatomy and Physiology II MidTerm Study guide(quiz and answers)
Adrenocordocotropic (ACTH) correct answer Regulates function of the adrenal cortex.
Anterior Pituitary Gland correct answer Has a follicle stimulating hormone which induces gamete production as well as the release of the ovum
Anti-diarrhetic Hormone correct answer Prevents dehydration by promoting reabsorption.
Autocrine correct answer Both an initiator and a target
B-Cells correct answer Fight infection; produce antibodies and memory B-Cells (hemoral immunity)
Basophils correct answer The rarest white blood cells, averaging only 0.5-1% of the leukocyte population
Calcitonin correct answer Released in response to high blood calcium levels, stimulating calcium uptake by the bones
EKG correct answer Consists of waveform components which indicate electrical events during one heart beat. These waveforms are labeled P , Q, R, S, T and U. P wave is the first short upward movement of the EKG tracing. It indicates that the atria are contracting, pumping blood into the ventricles. The QRS complex, normally begins with a downward deflection, Q; a larger upwards deflection, a peak (R); and then a downwards S wave. The QRS complex represents ventricular depolarization and contraction.
The PR interval indicates the transit time for the electrical signal to travel from the sinus node to
the ventricles. T wave is normally a modest upwards waveform, representing ventricular repolarization.
Endocrine correct answer Cell secretes chemicals to other cells in a DISTANT part of the body
Eosinophils correct answer Account for 2-4% of all leukocytes an are approximately the size of neutrophils
Erythrocytes correct answer Red blood cells that transport oxygen
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) correct answer Endorses gamete production. In males it makes sperm and in females it makes eggs mature.
Formed Elements correct answer Erythrocytes, Leukocytes, and Thrombocytes
Glycocordocoids correct answer Resists stressors by increasing blood glucose levels
Godnadocordocoids correct answer Produce mainly testosterone and only a tiny bit of estrogen.
Goiter correct answer When thyroid glands swell (meaning that the neck swells to traumatic size)
Growth Hormone (GH) correct answer Regulates the growth of the body, especially muscle and skeletal growth (bone growth)
Hormones are longer lasting than nervous system stimuli, largely because once a hormone is released into the bloodstream the hormone cannot be broken down but must be entirely used up by the body cells. correct answer True
