The Endocrine System Slide 2 Slide 3 Slide 4 Slide 5 FOLLICLE
STIMULATING HORMONE -FSH LUTEINIZING HORMONE- LH Stimulates the
production of gametes in ovaries and testes Stimulates the release
of gonadal hormones in males and females Stimulates the ovulation
of the egg and the formation of the corpus lutea in the follicle,
which will release progesterone- the pregnancy hormone Stimulates
the Leydig cells in testes to release androgens, such as
testosterone Slide 6 Slide 7 Slide 8 Slide 9 Stimulates the thyroid
to release its hormone: thyroxine Influences metabolic rate,
growth, and development. Slide 10 Calcitonin- causes calcium to be
stored on bones (decreases calcium in blood) Parathormone- relases
calcium stored on bones ( increases calcium in blood) Slide 11
Glucocorticoids- cortisol- targets the Liver and other tissues to
release Glucose. Mineralcorticoids-aldosterone- increases
reabsorption of Na+ in kidneys and excretion of K+, controls volume
of ICF and blood Stress! Adrenal Cortex Anterior Pituitary Negative
feedback Slide 12 Slide 13 Regulate synthesis of melanin in
melanocytes in skin and hair, also linked to appetite and sexual
arousal Slide 14 (aka Vasopressin) Hormones made in the
HYPOTHALAMUS but stored in the Slide 15 LOVE Positive Feedback
Slide 16 Stimulus- decreased blood pressure, increased osmotic
concentration, dehydration Target/Response- Arterial
walls/Vasoconstriction for increased pressure, Distal tubule of
kidneys/reabsorption of water for increased blood volume and
pressure. Slide 17 Slide 18 Stress! Slide 19 aka Adrenaline Fight
or Flight response Sudden response to fear, anger, pain, or
physical exertion Causes vasoconstriction aka Noradrenaline Rest
and Digest response Responsible for return to homeostasis However,
causes vasoconstriction, too Slide 20 Antagonistic hormones that
control blood glucose levels Beta cells Alpha cells Slide 21
Enzymes affecting nearby tissues Slide 22 Slide 23 Slide 24 Heat
Memory Contraction / relaxation of muscles Slide 25 Stimulates the
development of T lymphocytes Slide 26 Produces melatonin- Which
communicates information on environmental lighting to other tissues
in the body Slide 27 Slide 28 Slide 29 Melatonin has important
effects in integrating photoperiod and affecting circadian rhythms.
It has significant effects on reproduction, sleep-wake cycles and
other phenomena showing circadian rhythm. Slide 30
