Endocrine system
|
Endocrine cells and tissues produce about 30 differenthormones (chemical messengers)
|
|
|
What 4 mechanisms of inter cellular communication is there? |
Direct communication Paracrine communication Autocrine communication Endocrine communication |
|
|
Direct Communication |
Exchange of ions and molecules between adjacentcells across gap junctions Occurs between two cells of the same type Highly specialized and relatively rare |
|
|
Paracrine Communication |
Chemical signals transfer information from cell tocell within a single tissue
|
|
|
Autocrine Communication |
Messages affect the same cells that secrete them |
Examples: Prostaglandins secreted by smooth muscle cells cause the same cells to contact |
|
Endocrine Communication |
Endocrine cells release chemicals (hormones) thatare transported in bloodstream Alters metabolic activities of many organs |
|
|
Target Cells |
Have receptors needed to bind and "read" hormonal messages |
|
|
Hormones |
Change types, quantities, or activities of enzymes and structural proteins in target cells |
|
|
Synaptic Communication |
Neurons release neurotransmitters at a synapse Leads to action potentials that are propagated alongaxons Allows for high-speed “messages” to reach specificdestinations Ideal for crisis management |
|
|
True or False Both endocrine and nervous systems rely on release of certain chemicals that bind specific receptors to target cells? |
True |
|
|
True or False Both endocrine and nervous systems share many chemicals EX: nonrepinephrine & epinephrine |
True |
|
|
True or False Both endocrine and nervous systems are regulated by negative feedback |
True |
|
|
True or False Both endocrine and nervous systems functions are to regulate and coordinate the body to preserve homeostasis |
True |
|
|
True or False Endocrine organs are scattered throughout the body? |
|
|
|
True or False Endocrine cells release secretions into extracellular fluid |
True |
Unlike exocrine cells |
|
Pineal Gland |
