Test Wednesday, March 5
1. Compare the endocrine system and nervous system as far as their speed of reaction and their length of effect.
2. Compare the endocrine system and nervous system. Do they both use feedback systems? Do they both maintain homeostasis? Do they both use signal molecules that bind to a receptor?
3. What is a pheromone?
4. Describe the action of a protein (peptide) hormone.
5. Describe the action of a steroid hormone.
6. What other function does the pancreas have besides endocrine? What is it’s exocrine function?
7. Be able to determine the difference between examples illustrating negative feedback and positive feedback.
8. What does tropic mean? How many different organs are involved in Thyroid Hormones being released?
9. What is Acromegaly? What causes it?
10. How does ADH work? How would this work with alcohol consumption?
11. Which gland has an endocrine and exocrine function?
12. What hormones does the pancreas secrete? How do they work? Would this be considered antagonistic?
13. Know the correct order of early embryo development.
14. What is cleavage?
15. What is morphogenesis?
16. What are homeotic genes? Is there an evolutionary relationship in animal development?
17. What is induction?
18. What is apoptosis?
19. What generally comes from each layer: endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm? (esp mesoderm J)
20. Where will you find a ligand-gated ion channel? What will it do?
21. What is the pathway for cell communication for protein ligands?
22. What are the three stages of cell communication?
23. When does transduction begin? What happens to the receptor protein?
24. What is common in short distance cell communication, such as synaptic signaling and hormone signaling?
25.What is a ligand?
26. What happens at ligand-gated ion channels?
27. Are G-proteins common receptors in most organisms? Does this link them to a evolutionary past?
28. Testosterone is a steroid hormone. What are the steps through cellular response?
29. Same as 28
30. What is the role of transcription factors?
31. What protein is responsible for the phosphorylation of other molecules?
