- Which of the following statements are false regarding the endocrine (hormones) in comparison to the paracrine system? (there may be more than one answer) Hormones are less stable than paracrine signals Hormones have a lower affinity for their receptors than paracrine signals Hormones are produced in a greater quantity than are paracrine signals Hormones are produced by most cell types; paracrine signals are only produced as a response to an insult (wound or infection). Hormones are produced from cells at a greater distance to their response elements than paracrine signaling.arrow_forwardAn area called the diencephalon includes the thalamus, which serves as an integrating center for sensory input. Immediately below it, is the _8__ which is critically important for helping us maintain homeostasis. The pituitary gland, which is sometimes referred to as the “master gland” of the endocrine system attaches to this structure by a stalk-like connection, but it is not visible in the specimen we’re looking at.arrow_forwardUnlike real life, pandemics in the movies often involve people turning into zombies - in which case many of us would need to run for our lives.
