Who regulates pituitary gland secretion? -:- hypothalamus What is a hormone and how does it act? -:- Hormones are chemical messengers that are responsible for regulation. They are secreted into body fluids, mainly blood. It has specific actions on target tissues, which are any tissue that has specific receptors for that particular hormone. Compare and contrast glucagon and insulin. -:- Glucagon stimulates the liver to break down glycogen and convert noncarbohydrates into glucose an...

1st degree AV Nodal Block - the AV node is having difficulty getting the action potentials on through to the rest of the conduction system. See prolonged PR intervals 2nd degree AV Nodal Block - there is even more difficulty than in first degree. 3rd degree AV Nodal Block - even more serious than second degree. See many Ps without QRS complexes, AP not getting through at all A bands - contain mainly thick filaments Abstract memory - Type of Explicit memory, Fact memory ( learning facts, li...
