Students have asked these similar questions
In the anterior pituitary region, do you see multiple cell types in each follicle or does each follicle contain a
single cell type? How can you tell each cell type apart from one another? Hint: think about the names and
staining.
Please draw a feedback loop for an individual who has secondary hypogonadism and is receiving testosterone replacement therapy.
Would there be an excess amount of GnRH or a low amount? And does the testosterone feedback to anywhere or is it even possible to create a negative feedback loop for this?
Describe the general functions of FSH, LH, estrogen, and progesterone in females.
