Questio... n : Which hormone is involved in the regulation of serum calcium levels? Student Answer: Parathyroid hormone (PTH) Thyroxine (T4) Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) Triiodothyronine (T3) Instructor Explanation: The parathyroid glands produce PTH, a regulator of serum calcium. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 2. Question : Where is oxytocin synthesized?

Student Answer: Cortisol Thyroxine (T4) Epinephrine Growth hormone (GH) Instructor Explanation: Lipid-soluble hormones, such as cortisol and adrenal androgens, are primarily circulated bound to a carrier or binding protein. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 4. Question : Which mineral is needed for the synthesis of thyroid hormones? Student Answer: Iron Zinc Iodide Copper Instructor Explanation: The thyroid gland is stimulated to produce thyroid hormone by pituitary thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), by low serum iodide levels, or by drugs interfering with the thyroid glands uptake of iodide from the blood. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 5. Question : The portion of the pituitary that secretes oxytocin is the _____ pituitary. Student Answer: posterior inferior anterior superior Instructor Explanation: The posterior pituitary secretes two polypeptide hormones: (1) ADH, also called arginine vasopressin, and (2) oxytocin. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 6. Question : Hormones are effective communicators because they Student Answer: are regularly synthesized in response to cellular and tissue activities. increase their secretion in response to rising hormone levels. are rapidly degraded once they enter the cell. decrease their secretion in response to rising plasma hormone levels.

It decreases serum magnesium. It increases serum magnesium. Instructor Explanation: Hyperphosphatemia leads to hypocalcemia. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 8. Question : What is the target tissue for prolactin-releasing factor (PRF)? Student Answer: Hypothalamus Anterior pituitary Mammary glands Posterior pituitary Instructor Explanation: PRF secreted by the anterior pituitary stimulates secretion of prolactin. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 9. Question : Target cells for parathyroid hormone (PTH) are located in the Student Answer: tubules of nephrons. thyroid gland. glomeruli of nephrons. smooth and skeletal muscles. Instructor Explanation: In the kidneys, PTH acts on its plasma membrane receptor in the distal and proximal tubules of the nephron. Points Received: 0 of 2 Comments: Question 10. Question : Lipid-soluble hormone receptors are located Student Answer: inside the plasma membrane in the cytoplasm. on the outer surface of the plasma membrane. inside the mitochondria. on the inner surface of the plasma membrane.

Question : A surgical individual just arrived on the unit from the postanesthesia care unit. This person’s respirations are 4 per minute and shallow. As the nurse calls for assistance, the person suddenly feels jittery and breathing quickens. Which of the following feedback loops is operating for the nurse in this situation? Student Answer: The central nervous system stimulates hypothalamus-releasing factor, which acts on the anterior pituitary gland to secrete thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and stimulates the release of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The central nervous system directly stimulates the release of insulin, which reduces blood glucose levels. The central nervous system directly stimulates the adrenal medulla to secrete epinephrine and stimulates hypothalamus-releasing factor, which acts on the anterior pituitary gland to secrete adrenocorticotropic-stimulating hormone (ACTH), stimulating the release of cortisol. The central nervous system stimulates the hypothalamus to synthesize oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone, which are secreted by the posterior pituitary, activating uterine contraction and renal absorption of water. Instructor Explanation: The secretion of cortisol is regulated primarily by the hypothalamus and the anterior pituitary gland. In the hypothalamus, corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is produced in several nuclei and stored in the median eminence. Once released, CRH travels through the portal vessels to stimulate the production of ACTH from pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), b-lipotropin, g-lipotropin, endorphins, and enkephalins by the anterior pituitary. ACTH is the main regulator of cortisol secretion and adrenocortical growth. Points Received: 0 of 2 Comments: Question 12. Question : Which of the following hormones acts on its target cell via a second messenger? Student Answer: Angiotensin II Thyroxine Estrogen Testosterone Instructor Explanation: In addition to being an important ion that participates in a multitude of cellular actions, Ca++ is considered an important second messenger. The binding of a hormone (such as norepinephrine or angiotensin II) to a surface receptor activates the enzyme phospholipase C through a G protein inside the plasma membrane. Points Received: 0 of 2 Comments: Question 13. Question : The level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in Graves disease is usually Student Answer: high. low. normal. in constant flux. Instructor Explanation: The hyperfunction of the thyroid gland leads to suppression of TSH because of the normal negative feedback mechanism. Points Received: 0 of 2 Comments: Question 14. Question : Which of the following laboratory values is consistently low in a client with diabetes insipidus (DI)? Student Answer: Urine specific gravity Serum sodium Urine protein Serum total protein Instructor Explanation: The basic criteria for diagnosing DI include a low urine specific gravity while sodium levels are high. Protein levels are not considered. Points Received: 2 of 2 Comments: Question 15. Question : Polyuria occurs with diabetes mellitus because of Student Answer: the formation of ketones. chronic insulin resistance. an elevation in serum glucose. an increase in antidiuretic hormone. Instructor Explanation: Glucose accumulates in the blood and appears in the urine as the renal threshold for glucose is exceeded, producing an osmotic diuresis and the symptoms of polyuria and thirst.
