What hormone deals with fluid homeostasis
antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
What hormone deals with electrolyte balance
aldosterone
What hormone deals with temperature regulation
thyroid hormone
what hormone deals with energy balance
thyroid hormone
What hormone deals with muscle activity (smooth and cardiac)
catecholamines (norepinephrine and epinephrine)
What hormones deal with glandular secretions
anterior pituitary hormones
What hormones deas with immune responses
thymic hormones
what hormone deals with growth and development
hGH, thyroid hormone, insulin, sex/anabolic hormones
what hormone deals with the reproductive processes
follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, testosterone, estrogen, progesterone
what hormone deals with homeostatic maintenance of cardiac output and PB during stress
norepinephrine, epinephrine, angiotensin II
what is the primary homeostatic mechanism within the endocrine system
the negative feedback
how are hormones released in the negative feedback system
in short burst when needed
when is the negative feedback control of hormone synthesis activated
a low plasma concentration of a circulating hormone stimulates one or more endocrine organs to secrete activating hormones
what is the end result of the negative feedback control system
once the optimal concentration of circulating hormone is reached, this suppresses further secretion of activating hormone until the cycle repeats itself
What does positive feedback do to hormones effect
it amplifies a hormone effect; the original stimulus is promoted
What is required to shut of the positive feedback cycle
an outside factor (like giving birth)
The response counteracts the stimulus shutting off the response loop
negative feedback
the response reinforces the stimulus sending the parameter father from the set point
positive feedback
an example is stimulatory input from the sympathetic nervous system on the adrenal medulla causes epinephrine and norepinephrine secretion
neural control
example: blood Ca++ concentration regulates parathyroid hormone (PTH) release from the parathyroid glands
chemical control
