Name three neural pathways one might expect to lead into the hypothalamus that would result in changes in pituitary output to peripheral endocrine glands. Describe a stimulus that would activate these pathways and describe each of three corresponding endocrine level changes. What potential change in behavior or mental processing might result

For this question, refer to the diagram of the pituitary gland. This letter is near the posterior pituitary gland (and you know this because...) OB; it has a neural connection to the hypothalamus OA; it has a neural connection to the hypothalamus OA; it has a portal system (blood) connection to the hypothalamus O B; it has a portal system (blood) connection to the hypothalamus A.
Explain the anatomical concepts associated with the endocrine system. Summarize this module’s key points in 5-6 sentences. Explain the physiological concepts associated with the endocrine system. Summarize this module’s key points in 5-6 sentences. How will you apply the concepts you have learned about the endocrine system in real life and in your future career?
Neuroendocrine glands are glands that are made up of both nervous tissue and endocrine tissue. This means that they can be directly stimulated by the nervous system to produce or release hormones. The pituitary gland and parathyroid gland are examples.Describe a situation/example for each (pituitary gland and parathyroid gland) that demonstrates the function mentioned above. Be specific.
The pituitary gland is often referred to as the master gland. Set aside the fact that this term is sexist and hegemonic. Instead, consider this definition from the Merriam Webster dictionary “being a device or mechanism that controls the operation of another mechanism.” Using examples from the anterior and posterior pituitary, explain how this definition could be appropriate Please answer asap and in short and content should not be palgarised please answer asap

The endocrine system is composed of glands that secrete hormones that regulate the activity of different body cells. The pituitary gland is often called the "master gland" because it controls the activities of other glands. Discuss a disorder associated with either hypo or hypersecretion of a specific hormone secreted by the pituitary gland. Include in your discussion the answer to the following: What effect will an increase or decrease in production have on the target organs?What signs and symptoms are associated with this condition and how is it treated?
Briefly write about Thalamic and Hypothalamic hormonal disorder and its management? Please answer at your own easy words. Please add some image, pictures or diagrams regarding the topic. I will rate you positive if you do so. Thank you.
Hello, I do not understand these questions, can I get help with them, please? Below are 3 statements, explain if each is true/false and why (VERY brief statement) #1: A tropic hormone always increases the size of an endocrine gland. #2: Spontaneous action potentials in the heart are primarily triggered by flux of K+ into cells through If channels. #3: Increasing the frequency of action potentials in motor units generates more tension than increasing the number of motor units.
(Max of 10 sentences only. Paragraph style only. No bullet points. Feel Free to include visuals as well.) List and describe the types of stimuli that trigger endocrine glands to synthesize and release their hormones.
Indicate whether the following statements about the pituitary glands are TRUE or FALSE. If the statement is false, correct the statement to make it true 1. The anterior and posterior pituitary glands are responsible for producing and releasing hormones. 2. The posterior pituitary gland is regulated by the hypothalamus via a positive feedback loop. 3. The hypothalamus regulates the release of cortisol via the sympathetic nervous system and that of epinephrine via the parasympathetic nervous system. 4. The releasing hormones from the hypothalamus stimulate the production of stimulating hormones and human growth hormone.
Which of the following would be better handled with an endocrine system response (not a nervous system response) and why: A. Assessing a noise in your environment (such as the hum of an air conditioner), and adapting to it (so you no longer unnecessarily pay attention to something unimportant). B. Stimulating the gradual development (it takes days!) of follicles in the ovary, because hormonal signals have a more extended duration than a nervous system signal. C. Both choice A and choice B D. Neither A nor B.
. Identify the endocrine organ described by each of the following statements. 1. located in the anterior neck; produces key hormones for metabolism 2. produces the hormones that are stored in the posterior pituitary 3. a mixed gland, located behind the stomach and close to the small intestine 4. paired glands suspended in the scrotum 5. bilobed gland located in the sella turcica 6. found in the pelvic cavity of the female, concerned with ova and female hormone production 7. found in the upper thorax overlying the heart; large during youth 8. found in the roof of the third ventricle of the brain 405
