Question

Classify the examples at left according to the type of endocrine disorder they best represent. Hyporesponsiveness Primary Hypersecretion A hormone-secreting tumor within the anterior pituitary leads to an increase in the secretion of thyroid hormone The absence of receptors for androgens result in the lack of development of certain male characteristics in individuals who are genetically male Destruction of adrenocorticotroplicdeficiency leads to a hormone (ACTH)- secreting cells within the anterior pituitary secretion Secondary Hyposecretion Hyperresponsiveness Dietary iodine decrease in the hormone of thyroid leads to a decrease in the secretion of cortisol Thyroid hormone causes an up-regulation of beta- Hormone-secreting tumors within the ovary leads to an increase in the andrenergic receptors for epinephrine, thus excess thyroid hormone leads to excess Primary Hyposecretion Secondary Hypersecretion secretion of estrogen response to circulating epinephrine Reset

Explanation / Answer

destruction of ACTH leads to decrease in adrenal is called primary hyposecretion the absence of receptors for androgens resulting in the lack development of certain male characteristics called hyporesponsiveness decrease in dietary iodine deficency decrease in he secretion of thyroid hormone is a secondary hyposecretion hormone secreting tumour within the ovary leads to an increase in the secretion of estrogen called as hypersecretion thyroid hormone causes an up regulation of beta adrenergic receptors for epinephrine thus excess thyroid hormones leads to excess response to circulating epinephrine hyperesponsiveness the hormone secretion tumour with in the anterior pitutary leads to the secretion of thyroidf hormone called secondary hypersecretion
