5. Match the term with the definition.Circulating hormoneA. Local hormone that acts on the same cell that secretedhormone.Paracrine hormoneB. Most endocrine hormones; pass from the secretory cells thatmake them into interstitial fluid and then into the blood.Autocrine hormoneC. Local hormone that acts on neighboring cells.Tropic hormoneD. hormone that acts on other endocrine glands.6. Match the hormone with the function.Human growth hormoneA. Synthesized by the hypothalamus and stored/secreted bythe posterior pituitary - enhances contractions of the uterus;stimulates milk ejection from mammary glands; has actionswith brain that foster parental caretaking behavior towardoffspring.B. Secreted by anterior pituitary - stimulates developmentand maturation of ovarian follicles in females; stimulatessperm production in males.Thyroid stimulating hormoneC. Synthesized by anterior pituitary - increases proteinsynthesis, causing growth of bones and skeletal muscles,enhances lipolysis in adipose tissue, resulting in increaseduse of released fatty acids for ATP production by body cells.ProlactinD. Synthesized by the hypothalamus and stored/secreted bythe posterior pituitary - conserves body water by decreasingurine production; decreases water lost by sweating andcauses constriction of arterioles, which increase BPFollicle stimulating hormone(secretion inhibited by alcohol consumption)E. Synthesized by anterior pituitary - stimulates milkproduction by mammary glands.Luteinizing hormoneF. Increase basal metabolic rate, increase body temperature(calorigenic), stimulate protein synthesis, increase use ofglucose and fatty acids for ATP production, stimulatelipolysis, regulate development and growth of nervous tissueand bonesAdrenocorticotropic hormoneG. Synthesized by anterior pituitary - stimulates thesynthesis and secretion of T3 and T4 by the Thyroid gland.OxytocinH. Synthesized by the thyroid gland - decreases levels ofcalcium in the blood by inhibiting the action of osteoclasts.Antidiuretic hormoneThyroxineI. Synthesized by anterior pituitary - stimulates theadrenal cortex to produce cortisol.CalcitoninJ. Synthesized by anterior pituitary - stimulates ovulation infemales; stimulates testosterone production in males.K. Major regulator of the levels of CALCIUM, magnesium,and phosphate ions in the blood; INCREASES activity ofOSTEOCLASTS (increases bone resorption); also affectskidneys - slows rate at which Ca2+ is lost from blood intourine, and promotes formation of calcitriol (vitamin D).Parathyroid hormone. AldosteroneL. Hormone produced by the pancreas to raise bloodglucose levels by accelerating breakdown of glycogen intoglucose by the liver.CortisolM. primary sex hormone produced by ovaries.AndrogensN. The major mineralocorticoid hormone secreted theadrenal cortex - retains Na+ in the body and eliminatesexcess K+. In doing so helps adjust blood pressure andblood volume by adjusting fluid levels.O. Hormone produced by the pancreas to lower bloodglucose by accelerating transport of glucose into cells.Epi/NorepinephrineP. Hormones produced by the adrenal cortex - assist inearly growth of axillary and pubic hair in both sexes; functionas precursors to estrogens after menopause.InsulinGlucagonQ. primary sex hormone produced by testes.EstrogenR. The major glucocorticoid hormone secreted the adrenalcortex - regulates metabolism and resistance to stress; anti-inflammatory effects, and depression of immune responses.S. Hormone secreted by pineal gland involved in setting ofthe body's biological clock; more is liberated during darknessthan in light - promotes sleepiness.TestosteroneT. Hormones produced by the adrenal medulla - enhancethe effects of the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flightresponses).Melatonin
