Characteristics of a good question: The purpose for asking the question is clear

and accurate. Question clearly and accurately identifies the

issue/problem Question is testable, contains variables

Is this a good question?

Engage You will be viewing some video clips

from Sideshow: Alive On The Inside. Within these clips you will see various types of endocrine disorders.

Write down observations and questions you have about the endocrine system.

Endocrine System Functions•Regulates many bodily functions•Maintains homeostasis by regulating the production of chemicals that affect most functions of the body•Secretes substances that aid the nervous system•Important regulator of growth and development•Endocrine glands are ductless glands, unlike exocrine glands that secrete substances into ducts.

Endocrine System Structures Glands – release products to

bloodstream directly. Horomones – products deliver messages

to body Target cells – have specific receptors for

specific hormones

HypothalamusThe hypothalamus makes hormones that control the pituitary gland. In addition, it makes hormones that are stored in the pituitary gland.

Pituitary glandThe pituitary gland produces hormones that regulate many of the other endocrine glands.

Parathyroid glandsThese four glands release parathyroid hormone, which regulate the level of calcium in the blood.

ThymusDuring childhood, the thymus releases thymosin, which stimulates Tcell development.

Adrenal glandsThe adrenal glands release epinephrine and nonepinephrine, which help the body deal with stress.

Pineal glandThe pineal gland releases melatonin, which is involved in rhythmic activities, such as daily sleep-wake cycles.

ThyroidThe thyroid produces thyroxine, which regulates metabolism.

PancreasThe pancreas produces insulin and glucagon, which regulate the level of glucose in the blood.

OvaryThe ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen is required for the development of secondary sex characteristics and for the development of eggs. Progesterone prepares the uterus for a fertilized egg.

Testis The testes produce testosterone, which is responsible for sperm production and the development of male secondary sex characteristics

Hormone Functions

Growth Hormone (GH)

Regulates growth of organism

Antidiuretic (ADH)

Stimulates kidneys to keep water

Thyroid Glands Regulates metabolism and energy

balance

Hormone Function

Thyroxine Regulates body energy usage

Calcitonin Regulates calcium and phosphate in blood

Parathyroid Glands Regulates calcium levels

Hormone Function

Parathyroid Hormones (PTH)

Increases calcium, phosphate and magnesium absorption in intestines

Causes bones to release calcium and phosphate

Adrenal Glands Releases hormones to deal with stress Secretes adrenaline

Hormone Function

Corticosteriods Controls blood pressure and blood sugar levels

Epinephrine/ norepinephrine

Triggers fight or flight response

Pancreas Glands Regulates blood sugar levels Secretes insulin

Hormone Function

Insulin Lowers blood sugar by packaging glucose molecules in glycogen to be stored in the liver

Glucagon Raises blood sugar by breaking down glycogen in glucose

PancreasFeedback Loop1. After a meal blood

sugar levels are high2. Triggers release of

insulin3. Formation of glycogen

molecules4. Stored in liver thereby

lowering glucose in blood

5. Before a meal blood sugar levels are low

6. Triggers release of glucagon

7. Glycogen molecules are broken down into glucose molecules

Thymus Glands Secretes Thymosine Part of the immune system

Hormone Function

Thymosine T-cell development

Before mealsGlucose

levels are low in the

blood

Pancreas secretes

glucagon

Liver changes glycogen to glucose

Glucose sent to target tissues

Target tissues need

glucose

After a mealGlucose

levels are high in the

blood

Pancreas secretes insulin

Glucose goes to the

liver and glycogen is produced

Glycogen sent to target tissues

Target tissues

don’t need glucose

Diabetes Diabetes

High sugar levels in blood Do not produce enough insulin to control

blood sugar Some take insulin injections to regulate

When Things Go Wrong With the Endocrine System!Directions: Read and summarize using the Rule-base strategy. Write a paragraph explaining which endocrine system disorder you would find easiest to live with. Just a paragraph! So dig deep and delete! Remember to use A.C.E. I.T!

Explain List 4 types of endocrine glands and

give their function. What is the overall function of the

endocrine system? With what other systems does the

endocrine system interact?
