Regulates level of testosterone via negative feedback control at the level of the anterior pituitary d. To stimulate testosterone production
Under which of these conditions are you most likely to observe a depression in plasma prolactin levels? Group of answer choices a. Breastfeeding b. Increased stimulation of dopaminergic neurons of the hypothalamus c. Pregnancy d. Increased TRH secretion
In females luteinizing hormone acts to _____. A initiate the shedding of the uterine wall to start mentruation B stimulate the corpus lutuem in the ovary to make estrogen and progesterone C stimulate the hypothalamus to make gonadotropin releasing hormone D stimulate milk production during lactation E ALL of these are functions of luteinizing hormone
Plasma concentrations of LH and FSH rise dramatically after menopause. This is because (select one) a. The negative feedback of gonadal steroids is no longer present b. Rising gonadotrophins maintains the fertility of older animals c. Fertility in older woman declines d. The pituitary becomes more efficient with age
Birth control pills are oral contraceptives taken by women to prevent pregnancies. the most effective forms of birth control pills contain estrogen and a small amount of progestin ( a synthetic hormone that mimics the effect of progesterone). The role of estrogen in the birth control pills is to: Select one: A. reduce the progesterone levels in the blood to limit the endometrium. B. negatively feedback to the anterior pituitary to suppress the production of GnRH. C. suppress the shedding of the endometrium, thus preventing mestruation. D. prevent the rise in the FSH and LH levels, thereby preventing follicle's maturation.
Birth control pills commonly provide excess progesterone that serves to inhibit (suppress) the actions of FSH and LH through a negative feedback loop. Given the role these hormones (FSH and LH) play, how could this feedback loop prevent a woman from becoming pregnant?
Which of these factors reduces the release of GnRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone) from the hypothalamus? a) Increase in testosterone b) Reduction of FSH c) Reduction of inhibin d) Reduction of LH
According to the diagram at right, FSH injections to super-stimulate the ovaries will: a. Rescue the subordinate follicles from atresia b. Reverse atresia of subordinate follicles c. Stimulate new waves of follicular growth d. Cause ovulation of atretic follicles what prevents the dominant follicles of Waves 1 and 2 from ovulating? a. follicles are not big enough b. the animal is not in heat c. the high progesterone prevents the LH/FSH surge d. all of the above e. none of the above
Teratomas in the pituitary glands are very rare tumors that occur in children and young adults. Usual symptoms of teratoma are diabetes insipidus, neurological issues, and a reduction in pituitary hormones. Which of the following correctly describes the symptoms of a 10 years-old girl with a teratoma tumor in the pituitary gland? Select one: A. Increased levels of ADH and stimulation of the development of secondary sexual characteristics. B. Increase levels of FSH and inhibition of the development of secondary sexual characteristics. C. Decreased levels of ADH and inhibition of the development of secondary sexual characteristics. D. Decreased levels of FSH and stimulation of the development of secondary sexual characteristics.
Estradiol is found in high levels in the pregnant rat. This estradiol is prevented from affecting the development of the fetus because: a. it is chemically converted to testosterone, which does not affect the fetus b. it is bound by alpha-fetoprotein c. the blood-brain barrier keeps estrogens like estradiol out of the brain d. the fetus does not possess the estrogen receptors needed to respond to the estradiol
