Researchers measured prolactin and growth hormone in the blood plasma of six subjects at regular intervals over a 24-hour period. The investigators were interested in determining if the levels of these two hormones cycle over a 24-hour period. The Figure presents the results of their experiments, with the y axis values showing the amount of each hormone expressed as a percentage of the 24-hour mean value, and each point showing the average of the six subjects levels. FIGURE Mean concentrations of prolactin and growth hormone in plasma, averaged for six subjects and expressed as a percentage of the average concentrations measured for the 24-hour period. Do the results support the hypothesis that the changes in prolactin level over a 24-hour period are associated with the sleepwake cycle? Source: From J. F. Sassin et al. 1972. Human prolactin: 24-hour pattern with increased release during sleep. Science 177:12051207.
Hashimoto’s disease is an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune systemattacks the thyroid gland, preventing it from functioning properly. Often times, a verylarge number of white blood cells will accumulate in the thyroid gland and resultin hypothyroidism. Q1. A change in hormone level that would be expected in individuals affected by Hashimoto’s disease is a. an increase in TRH and TSH, leading to a further decrease in the rate of metabolism b. a decrease in TRH and TSH, leading to a further decrease in the rate of metabolism c. a decrease in TRH and TSH, leading to additional symptoms such as goitre d. an increase in TRH and TSH, leading to additional symptoms such as goitre
