400

Describe the process of Water Control.

Be sure to include the Event, Hormone Response, and Impact on the body in your response

 

The water level is too high

Less Vasopressin

Lowers the Water level


The water level is too low

More Vasopressin

Raises the Water level

500

What is the role of the Pituitary Gland?

What is...

Control other glands using hormones

Release Hormones that disrupt other glands 

500

Describe the process of Blood Clotting. 

Be sure to include the Stimulus/Responses/End Result

1. Stimulus

Something breaks or tears the blood vessel walls

2. Response

More platelets stick to the cut and release more chemicals

3. More Response

Platelets stick to the site of the cut and release chemicals

4. End

The break or tear is completely sealed off

500

Describe the process of Glucose Control.

Be sure to include the Event, Hormone Response, and Impact on the body in your response

 

Blood Sugar (Glucose) is too high

Insulin

Lowers Blood Sugar


Blood Sugar (Glucose) too low

Glucagon

Raises Blood Sugar

500

DOUBLE JEOPARDY

Releases ADH/Growth Hormon/FSH

What is the Pituitary Gland

500

Describe the process of Childbirth. 

Be sure to include the Stimulus/Responses/End Result

1. Stimulus

The baby’s head puts pressure on the Uterus

2. Response

Oxytocin causes contractions that create more pressure, which release more chemicals

3. More Response

Pressure causes the body to release Oxytocin

4. End- 

The baby is fully pushed out (labor stops)
