7. An example of a hypothalamic hormone that will be stored in the posterior pituitary is
Prolactin
ADH
GnRH
ACTH
8. Which statement is true
The hypothalamus produces trophic hormones that trigger the anterior lobe pituitary to produce releasing hormones, these in turn stimulate the endocrine target glands.
The pituitary produces releasing hormones that trigger
hypothalamic trophic hormone release, these in turn stimulate the endocrine target glands.
The hypothalamus produces releasing hormones that trigger anterior lobe pituitary trophic hormone release, these in turn stimulate the endocrine target glands.
The hypothalamus produces releasing hormones that trigger posterior lobe pituitary trophic hormone release, these in turn stimulate the endocrine target glands.
9. All the hypothalamic hormones have
Are mainly stimulatory, but some are inhibitory
A stimulatory role
B and C are correct (Communicate with the pituitary in some way & Are mainly stimulatory, but some are inhibitory)
Communicate with the pituitary in some way
10. The pineal gland produces
Cortisol
Melatonin
Leptin
Melanin
11. Hormones are

Adrenal cortex zona fasciculata
18. Which is true of the hormone insulin
It is made in the pancreatic Islets by the beta cells and its purpose is to reduce circulating glucose by allowing its entry into the cells and liver.
It is made in the clear cells of the pancreas and its purpose is to increase circulating glucose by converting glycogen in the muscles, back to glucose.
It is made in the pancreatic Islets by the alpha cells and its purpose is to reduce circulating glucose by allowing its entry into the cells and liver.
It is made in the pancreatic duct and its purpose is to increase circulating glucose by converting glycogen in the liver, back to glucose.
