Down: triggers, sound of milking machine stimulate milk let down, shake/vocalization/smell of newborn help stimulate mother. 8: pl is important for, milk production (lactogenesis, works on mammary tissue to help with milk production/secretion, lactogenesis: initiate and maintain milk production triggered by suction of milk from the udder emptiness (milking machine or nursing) 11: no releasing inhibiting hormone, acth governs secretion of the corticosteroids and is important in the stress response, stress examples: rough handling / heat, how can the body decrease/stop the secretion of. Acth: feedback mechanism: hormones produced by the target glands exert negative feedback on the hypothalamus to shut off production of the releaser hormones or, reliving of the stress will trigger the hypothalamus to stop releasing. 12: most animals show corticosteroid circadian rhythm of corticosteroid hormones, cortisol is closely linked with stress, and is often measured in research as an indicator of stress, hormonal cascade tsh.
