Document Summary
Write out the answers to these questions after reading the chapter and reviewing the chapter. Protein anabolism: list the four tropic hormones secreted by the basophils of the anterior pituitary gland. Which of the tropic hormones are also called gonadotropins: how does antidiuretic hormone act to alter urine volume, describe the positive feedback associated with oxytocin, discuss the synthesis and storage of thyroxine and triiodothyronine. This allows protein anabolism at an increased rate, which allows an increased rate of growth. Gh promotes growth in bone, muscle, and other tissue. Gh also stimulates fat metabolism, accelerates mobilization of lipids from storage, and speeds up catabolism of those lipids. Fsh and luteinizing hormone are also called gonadotropins: adh acts to reduce the volume of urine. It does this by causing water to be reabsorbed from the tubules of the kidney and returned to the blood.
